The Orioles suffered 2 injuries that could see both players out for the rest of the season. Catcher Bill Krieg picked up a hip strain mid month which has him sidelined for 3 weeks. He might be back in time for the last few games in September. Right Fielder King Kelly is definitely out for the rest of the season after his strained rib cage injury was diagnosed for a 4 weeks lay-off mid month.
