Saturday October 1 at the Blue Jays

Opponent: Toronto Blue Jays
Outcome: L
Score: 3-7
Streak: L3
Record: 54-106
Rank: 7th
GB: 34.5

For a little bit this afternoon it looked the Orioles might put up a fight against Toronto.  The Blue Jays got on the board first in the bottom of the second on a sacrifice fly by Rob Ducey but the Orioles tied it in the top of the third on an RBI ground out by Craig Worthington.  Toronto went ahead for good in the fourth on a two run home run by Jesse Barfield and an RBI single by Kelly Gruber but the Birds cut the lead to just one run on a two run shot by Jim Traber in the fifth.  But Toronto responded in the bottom of the fifth with three more runs to bury the Orioles.  A Fred McGriff solo home run followed later in the inning with an RBI double by Ducey and an RBI single by Nelson Liriano accounted for the runs.
