1st July
The fans of the Orioles were shocked at how quickly their teams form died. From having 2 strong months to start the season the team had an awful month in June. They managed to pick up only 4 wins from the 13 games played. They still sit second in the AL table but now trail the leading Cleveland Blues by 8 games.
The batting's form started to dip during the month of June as they scored 51 runs. The batter to put up the best showing was Left Fielder Dan Brouthers. Brouthers played in all 13 games and had 46 at bats for 14 hits. These hits bought him 6 runs and 7 RBI's for an average of .304.
The pitching also had its struggles during the month. The best of the starters was Stump Wiedman. Wiedman started 6 games and pitched 52 innings for 3 wins. He gave up 44 hits and 11 earned runs for an ERA of 1.90. The team gave up a total of 71 runs.
