Baseball Yankees GBU – Bye, Bye Birdies by Chris Passarelli August 9, 2019 There’s no reason to do a full GBU when the Yankees completely annihilated the Baltimore Orioles. Instead, for one time and one time only we will just go through some of the most ridiculous stats from the series with the O’s. Please note that all of these stats are independent research. As always thank you to the great people who have these stats, especially Katie Sharp. 17 different Yankees have 1+ HR vs Orioles. Entering today, there were 14 MLB teams that had fewer than 17 players with 1+ HR for the entire season. — Katie Sharp (@ktsharp) August 8, 2019 This is similar to the stat that more Yankees have hit home runs at Camden Yards (17) than Orioles have (15). When guys like Kyle Higashioka and Mike Ford are stroking the ball out of the park, you know you’re in trouble. Yankees hit 43 HR in 10 games vs Orioles at Camden Yards this season. Orioles scored 44 runs in 10 games vs Yankees at Camden Yards this season. — Katie Sharp (@ktsharp) August 8, 2019 Another ridiculous stat. The Yankees have almost as many HOME RUNS as the Orioles have runs total in their matchups at Camden Yards. The Yankees could have hit only home runs during their ten games and would have only lost one game (depending on how the runs were spread out). Yankees finish 10-0 vs Orioles at Camden Yards. This is 3rd time in franchise history Yankees have gone 10-0 or better at a road ballpark in a season. The 1927 and 1939 teams both went 11-0 vs St. Louis Browns at Sportsman's Park. — Katie Sharp (@ktsharp) August 8, 2019 Those other two teams were pretty decent. One was Murderer’s Row (1927) and the other swept the Cincinnati Reds in the World Series (1939). It’s good company to keep. ☑ 95 Runs by Yankees vs Orioles at Camden Yards ☑ 88 Hits by Orioles vs Yankees at Camden Yards — Katie Sharp (@ktsharp) August 8, 2019 Just another example of how dominant the Yankees were against the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. It’s almost impossible to think that either A) a team can be so bad or B) a team can be so dominant against another professional team. And my personal favorite….. MLB All-Time Slugging Percentage Leaders.690 Babe Ruth.634 Ted Williams.632 Lou Gehrig.630 2019 Yankees vs Orioles.609 Jimmie Foxx.607 Barry Bonds — James Smyth (@JamesSmyth621) August 7, 2019 This stat is literally laugh out loud funny. The 2019 Yankees against the Orioles have the fourth highest slugging percentage in Major League Baseball history. It’s even more impressive that it is a collective effort, not an individual like Gleyber Torres or Gary Sanchez. Having everyone on the team mash home runs against the O’s, regardless of how bad they’ve been this season, is extremely impressive. The Yankees took down the Orioles last series in historic fashion. The starting pitching was alright (James Paxton was good) and the bullpen was good, but the story of the series was of course the offense. The Yankees mashed, they swept the Orioles and they’re onto Toronto.
