Friday September 9 vs the Blue Jays

Opponent: Toronto Blue Jays
Outcome: L
Score: 1-8
Streak: L1
Record: 49-90
Rank: 7th
GB: 28.5

Not a lot to say about this game - the O's really took it on the chin.  George Bell had a two run home run in the top of the first to put the Jays up 2-0 and despite Joe Orsulak leading off the bottom of the first with a home run of his own, it pretty much was downhill for the Birds after that.  Toronto scored single runs in the second and third off RBI singles by Kelly Gruber and Ernie Whitt respectively before blowing the game open with four runs in the sixth inning.  The loss was Baltimore's 90th of the season - this was the first time since the team's first two seasons in Maryland (1954-55) that they had lost 90 games in two consecutive seasons.
