The Baltimore Orioles begin a nine-game West Coast trip today, starting with a matchup against the Seattle Mariners. The trip includes games against both Los Angeles teams, with two of those opponents leading their divisions. At five games under.500, the Orioles are on the fringes of the AL Wild Card race and need a strong performance to stay relevant. Their recent homestand did not inspire confidence, having split a series with the Mariners prior to this road trip. Baltimore's performance over the next nine games will be critical for the team's postseason chances.
