THE DROUGHT: The Orioles have not scored more than five runs in their last 21 contests (since September 2) Per STATS, that streak is tied for the fifth-longest in club history behind a pair of 26-game streaks and a pair of 24-game streaks The 26-game streaks were from 8/32/54-4/17/55 and 7/11-8/5/59, while the 24-game streaks were from 8/3-28/54 and 4/17-5/18/58 The last 21-game streak was from 9/5-27/92 The Orioles have scored four or fewer runs in seven straight games, their third such streak of the year (also June 30-July 7 and September 3-9) and their longest of the year They have scored four or fewer runs in 17 of their last 21 games. NO BIG DEAL: Chris Davis next strikeout will set a club record with 197, topping Mark Reynolds 196 in 2011 This year, Davis has 14 more doubles, 15 more homers, 18 more runs scored and 50 more RBI than Reynolds had in 2011.

A GROUP OF GRINDERS: The Orioles have had seven players (Chris Davis, J.J. Hardy, Adam Jones, Manny Machado, Nick Markakis, Nate McLouth and Matt Wieters) appear in 140 or more games this year According to STATS, that is the most in the majors this year (the Reds have six) and the most by an Orioles squad since the 1975 club had seven (Don Baylor, Mark Belanger, Paul Blair, Bobby Grich, Lee May, Brooks Robinson and Ken Singleton). CLOSE CALLS: 16 of the Orioles last 17 games and 19 of their last 21 have been decided by two runs or fewer, with the team posting 6-10 and 7-12 records in those games On the year, 85 percent (133 of 157) of the Orioles games have been decided by four or fewer runs (the most in the majors) The O s are 17-31 in onerun games, 20-11 in two-run games, 19-10 in three-run games and 11-14 in games decided by four runs The White Sox are the only other team to play in 130+ games decided by four or fewer runs (130 in 157 games).
