Amid a dismal season after a trade deadline sell-off, the Orioles have announced season ticket program changes that will push more fans to commit to more games or lose their privileges. It has curdled some of the team’s most loyal buyers, who wonder what good all their dollars are doing.
Mountcastle’s home run, plus Adley Rutschman’s two-run shot and Tomoyuki Sugano’s stellar seven-inning start, led the Orioles to a 3-2 win over the Athletics.
Baltimore has contemplated a change of this sort for almost a decade, before a change in ownership groups led David Rubenstein to the helm and Catie Griggs to the role of president of business operations.
