&lt;p&gt;Dead last, that is where the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/john-means-no-hitter-nearly-perfect-game-vs-mariners-20210506-0001.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Baltimore Orioles&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; sit in the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/betting/mlb-2022-who-has-the-best-odds-to-win-world-series-20220406-0022.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;ML&lt;/a&gt;B standings in the American League east and where they sit in &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/mlb-25-highest-paid-players-for-2022-season-20220427-0019.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Major League Baseball&rsquo;&lt;/a&gt;s ranking of team payrolls. In total &lsquo;The Birds&rsquo; have a roster payroll of $45,922,463 according to Spotrac.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;To put it into perspective, the highest paid player in the MLB is &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/new-york-mets-25-great-simply-amazin-players-of-all-time-20220412-0013.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;New York Mets&lt;/a&gt; ace Max Scherzer at $43.3 million a season. According to a Washington Post article the Orioles spent less than $10 million on their roster during the offseason and it shows. &lt;strong&gt;The Orioles have a 6-13 record and are 3-7 in their last 10 games.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Injuries to &lt;strong&gt;John Means, Chris Ellis, and Dean Kremer &lt;/strong&gt;have not helped matters much. Ellis in 8 games for the Orioles can account for a 1-0 record, while Kremer is 1-8 lifetime, hardly anything you can hang your hat on, no matter how high Ellis and Kremer may be as prospects. &lt;strong&gt;Now the &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb/funniest-mlb-mascots-of-all-time-20200812-0001.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;O&rsquo;s&lt;/a&gt; are in major survival mode with no real answers in sight.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;Light at the end of the tunnel for the Orioles is through their pitching&lt;/h2&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The O&rsquo;s best baseball came when they took 2 out of 3 from the Yankees in mid-April only to get blown away by the Bronx bombers early this week.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Nonetheless according to Camdenchat.com &lt;strong&gt;&lsquo;The Birds&rsquo; are throwing more strikes this season, among the league&rsquo;s best at 64% strike percentage.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bruce Zimmermann &lt;/strong&gt;has improved tenfold for the team but defensively the Orioles are a mess and manager Brandon Hyde has been left looking for answers for a team that will need to turn Oriole Park into a place the team can win, at the moment the club has a 3-3 record at home.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;With virtually no major investment on the horizon the club will need to rely on the continued improvement of their pitching and lone bright spots like &lt;strong&gt;Ryan Mountcastle.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Orioles have not had a winning season since 2016 and have been last in 4 of the last 5 seasons. All &lt;strong&gt;Brandon Hyde &lt;/strong&gt;can do is to continue to improve his team from within, and the first place that has improved is pitching, at least statically, now defense is the next step. It could be worse; the Orioles could be the Cincinnati Reds.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

MLB: Baltimore Orioles in survival mode amid string of pitching injuries

Remembering the greats: A list of every MLB team's historic home run leader

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/baltimore-orioles-t119462&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Baltimore Orioles &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;didn't have many things to look forward to when it came to this&lt;strong&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb-t48464&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;MLB&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; season. Other than developing talent and assessing their youngsters, not many people thought they'd be able to compete. Then again, this beautiful often gives us little - and not so little - things to cheer for, like &lt;strong&gt;John Means'&lt;/strong&gt; no-hitter vs. the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/seattle-mariners-t121579&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Seattle Mariners&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;last night.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Means was as efficient as he was dominant on the mound, leading his team to a 6-0 road win at &lt;strong&gt;T-Mobile Park&lt;/strong&gt;, handcuffing a Seattle Mariners offense that has been surprisingly competent this season.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Sadly, he was a third-strike wild-pitch away from throwing a perfect game&amp;nbsp;and became the first pitcher in MLB history to throw &lt;strong&gt;a non-perfect, no-hitter with no walks, &lt;/strong&gt;according to ELIAS and ESPN Stats &amp;amp; Info.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;div class=&quot;ck-youtube&quot; id=&quot;youtube-74&quot; style=&quot;display: inline-block;&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;iframe allow=&quot;accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture&quot; allowfullscreen frameborder=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;409&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/zJd1r02xmEU&quot; title=&quot;YouTube video player&quot; width=&quot;727&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt; 
  &lt;span class=&quot;item first&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
  &lt;span class=&quot;item second&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;John Means Throws No-Hitter, Is One Wild-Pitch Away From Perfect Game&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&quot;To be honest, I can't even put it into words right now. I felt OK all game, didn't really have a changeup until the end, but glad I got it going,&quot;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt; Means told &lt;strong&gt;MASN&lt;/strong&gt; after the game.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;When asked about whether he was sorry about missing the chance to get a perfect game, the 28-year-old &lt;strong&gt;was quite unbothered,&lt;/strong&gt; claiming that he wasn't upset at all after reaching such an impressive milestone:&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&quot;Yeah, right now it doesn't matter at all to be honest with you,&quot; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;the pitcher told&lt;strong&gt; SportsCenter&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;em&gt; &quot;I was just happy I made a good pitch, I was struggling with the curveball recently, so I was just happy I got it over and got a swing and miss on it, so that is all I was happy about. I was just trying to keep my cool with him on first base. I'm glad Sevy (catcher Pedro Severino) made up for it by getting him out at second.&quot;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Baltimore Orioles hadn't had a pitcher throw an individual no-hitter&lt;strong&gt; over the past 51 years,&lt;/strong&gt; even though they had a combined no-hitter in 1991. Needless to say, his teammates were ecstatic and so happy for Means:&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;div class=&quot;ck-related-news&quot;&gt;

 &lt;div id=&quot;relatedNews-50&quot;&gt;
   &amp;nbsp; 
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&quot;Really can't put into words what the last three outs, seeing how the teammates embraced him.&lt;strong&gt; Our your clubhouse after the game it was like we clinched a playoff spot,&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;&lt;/em&gt; manager &lt;strong&gt;Brandon Hyde&lt;/strong&gt; told ESPN.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;It was only a matter of time before Means did something like this. He's been nearly untouchable throughout the young season, posting a &lt;strong&gt;4-0 record with a 1.37 ERA, a 0.674 WHIP, and 50 strikeouts over 7 starts.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Here, you'll find everything there is to know about this exciting matchup, such as the match information, predictions, odds, and even how to watch the game.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The New York Yankees certainly didn't get off to the start of the season they wanted but it's still too early to worry, as this team is just too good, even if they've struggled early &lt;strong&gt;with runners in scoring position.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Baltimore Orioles are likely to be near the bottom of the standings of the &lt;strong&gt;American League East Division &lt;/strong&gt;this year, and they haven't been able to do much damage to the Yankees over the past years.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;New York Yankees vs Baltimore Orioles: Storylines&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;It seems like every time these two lifelong divisional rivals meet, &lt;strong&gt;Gleyber Torres&lt;/strong&gt; suddenly transforms into the second coming of &lt;strong&gt;Joe DiMaggio.&lt;/strong&gt; He just has a feel for torching the Orioles every time he steps up on the plate.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;This season shouldn't be very different, as the Orioles are expected to be one of the bottom-feeders of the league once again, while the Yankees will continue their pursuit of yet another &lt;strong&gt;World Series.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

New York Yankees vs Baltimore Orioles: How to watch MLB season today, match information, and predictions

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;2021 &lt;a href=&quot;https://bolavip.com/en/mlb-t48464&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Major League Baseball &lt;/a&gt;season&lt;/strong&gt; is finally upon us. All teams will enter the year with the same record and the same hopes and expectations, even if they're unable to keep up the pace with the true contenders.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;For this season, the extra-inning rule with a runner in the second base and the seven-inning doubleheaders will still be enforced, while the &lt;strong&gt;expanded playoff pool&lt;/strong&gt; is yet to be determined by the league and the Players' Association.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Also, fans will be back in attendance - although at a limited capacity - after last year's tough season due to the &lt;strong&gt;Covid-19 pandemic.&lt;/strong&gt; In the following paragraphs, we'll show you everything there is to know about the 2021 season:&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This article will take a deep dive into some unknown facts and tidbits about the fall classic that you may not know. It&rsquo;s a good way to impress your friends or have something to talk about at the water cooler at work. &lt;strong&gt;Here are some interesting World Series records and stats!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;The New York Giants refused to play the 1904 World Series&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The Giants were the National League champion coming into the 1904 World Series but refused to play against the American League champion Boston Pilgrims because the Giants manager &lt;strong&gt;John McGraw considered the AL an &amp;nbsp;&quot;inferior league&quot; and had personal issues with American League president Ban Johnson and declined to play.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Still, since 1905 the World Series has been played annually with only one exception in 1994 due to the players&rsquo; strike.&lt;/strong&gt; For the exception of the 1919 - 1921 seasons, where the series was decided by the best of nine games, the fall classic has been played as a best of seven series.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;The New York Yankees win five consecutive World Series 1949-53&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Yankees are dominant no question about it, but in the late 40s and early 50s, they were downright unbeatable. &lt;/strong&gt;The victims were the Dodgers in 5 games in 1949, the Phillies in 4 games in 1950, Giants in 6 games in 1951, the Dodgers again in 7 games in 1952, and the Dodgers once again in 6 games in 1953.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is the longest championship streak in MLB history&lt;/strong&gt;, the Yankee roster had Joe DiMaggio and Mickey Mantle on it during this run, while Yogi Berra and Phil Rizzuto were on all five championship teams.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;In 1955 the first-ever World Series MVP was awarded.&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;In the 1955 series, the Brooklyn Dodgers defeated the New York Yankees in an emotional 7 game series. It was also the first series that the MVP award was given to a player, the &lt;strong&gt;first-ever World Series MVP was Brooklyn&rsquo;s pitcher Johnny Podres.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Podres pitched a complete game in Game 3, it was a seven-hit victory, &lt;strong&gt;in Game 7 Podres pitched a 2-0 shutout to win the Dodgers their only World Series before moving to Los Angeles.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;1971 the first-night game World Series&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;div class=&quot;ck-youtube&quot; id=&quot;youtube-6&quot; style=&quot;display: inline-block;&quot;&gt;

  &lt;span class=&quot;item second&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Until the 1971 World Series, all games were played during the day, it was not until &lt;strong&gt;Game 4 between the Baltimore Orioles and the Pittsburgh Pirates at Three- Rivers stadium did a game officially begin in the evening hours.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The game finished with a Pittsburgh 4-3 victory and 14 hits, &lt;strong&gt;The Orioles blew a 3-0 lead, and in the seventh inning the Pirates pulled through with a few one-out singles, and a clutch RBI single by Milt May.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;1976 the designated hitter is implemented in the World Series&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;img alt=&quot;DH rule&quot; data-height=&quot;463&quot; data-width=&quot;740&quot; data-size=&quot;w:740,h:463&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot; title=&quot;DH rule&quot; src=&quot;/__export/1603304410615/sites/bolavip/img/2020/10/21/dh_rule_1_crop1603304409922.jpg_166139169.jpg&quot; width=&quot;740&quot; height=&quot;463&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;figcaption style=&quot;background: transparent; position: relative;&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;In 1973 when the American League adopted the designated hitter rule as a way to have teams have an extra experienced hitter hit over a pitcher &lt;strong&gt;from 1973 - 1975 the World Series was played without the rule in place for those games.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In 1976 when the DH was allowed it was strangely only allowed for even-numbered years only.&lt;/strong&gt; In 1986 in the Boston Red Sox and New York Mets series, the rule was adopted for every World Series game played in AL stadiums.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;Sparky Anderson becomes the first manager to win a World Series for both leagues&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;figure class=&quot;image&quot; style=&quot;display:inline-block&quot;&gt; 
  &lt;img alt=&quot;Sparky Anderson&quot; data-height=&quot;463&quot; data-width=&quot;740&quot; data-size=&quot;w:740,h:463&quot; hspace=&quot;5&quot; vspace=&quot;5&quot; title=&quot;Sparky Anderson&quot; src=&quot;/__export/1603304567190/sites/bolavip/img/2020/10/21/sparky_anderson_1_crop1603304566728.jpg_166139169.jpg&quot; width=&quot;740&quot; height=&quot;463&quot;&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;Legendary manager Sparky Anderson became the first manager in MLB history to&lt;strong&gt; win baseball&rsquo;s biggest prize in both the National and American leagues.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;He has won back-to-back titles with the Cincinnati Reds in 1975 and 1976, later in 1984 he would win in the American League with the Detroit Tigers.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;The earthquake that shook the series&lt;/h2&gt; 
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align:center&quot;&gt; 
 &lt;div class=&quot;ck-youtube&quot; id=&quot;youtube-30&quot; style=&quot;display: inline-block;&quot;&gt;

  &lt;span class=&quot;item second&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;In 1989 the series between the San Francisco Giants and Oakland Athletics became world news when &lt;strong&gt;in Game 3 a half-hour before first pitch and with ABC&rsquo;s pregame on the air a 7.1 magnitude earthquake&lt;/strong&gt; hit northeast of Santa Cruz, California.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;63 people were killed as a result and there were incredible property and economic damage. The game was postponed and would be played on October 27 where Oakland won and would later complete a four-game sweep.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;For the first time in MLB history in 1992, the fall classic was played outside American soil&lt;/strong&gt;, as the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Atlanta Braves in six games. One year later the series returned to Toronto again, this time it was against the Phillies.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Once again the Blue Jays would win the series in six games and become the first Canadian team to win back-to-back titles. &lt;/strong&gt;Toronto is also the only expansion team to win successive World Series titles.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;span class=&quot;item third&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt; 
 &lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In 2001 the World Series was played in November&lt;/strong&gt;, the regular season was suspended for one week due to the September 11 attacks. Game 4 of the series was played on Halloween night, but because it went to extra innings, it ended in the early hours of November 1st.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The game is famous because of Derek Jeter&rsquo;s walk-off home run in the 10th inning that won the game for the Yankees and he became &quot;Mr. November&quot; &lt;/strong&gt;as a homage to Reggie Jackson, who was &amp;nbsp;&quot;Mr. October&quot; for his achievements during the 1977 World Series.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;h2&gt;Teams that have won Pennants in different cities&lt;/h2&gt;

  &lt;/figcaption&gt; 
 &lt;/figure&gt; 
&lt;/div&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Braves are the only team in the MLB to have won and lost a World Series while being a team from the following cities, Boston, Milwaukee, and Atlanta.&lt;/strong&gt; The Dodgers and Giants also played series as a Brooklyn and New York team before moving to Los Angeles and San Francisco respectively.&lt;/p&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;The A&rsquo;s played in a World Series in two cities, Philadelphia, and Oakland while the Orioles are the only other team to have played in the World Series in two home cities Baltimore and St. Louis, as the Browns.&lt;/p&gt;
