41 games under .500 at the end of the season is unbelievable. I don't think there's a word for 41 games under .500 before the all star break.

That word is "Orioles"

I think I might start using Orioles as an adjective.  Like if I had a bad day, someone asks "Hey, how's it going?"  I'll just be like "Orioles, man."

That is an incredible run of ineptitude.   You'd think that just once, for a week and a half a team could muster .500 baseball.

To be fair they did win 5 of 6 from May 9 to May 13 (doubleheader with Ray's included) which allowed them to go 6-4 for 10 games. It was a glorious time.

Yes, I do remember the Glory Days.   They also went 4-4 on their last homestand, which for them is a wildly hot streak.

While the current 10 game segment isn’t complete, the O’s are currently 5-3, meaning it will be the first reported segment all year where they weren’t under .500.

Earlier in the thread, I noted that the Orioles have indeed have a sequence of going over .500 for a 10-game span. 

It was not at the precise increments of Games 1 through 10, Games 11 through 20, Games 21 through 30, etc, but they did go 6-4 over a 10 game span (7-5 in a 12-game span) earlier this season.

They did actually manage to go 6-3 over a 9-game span, 6-4 over a 10-game span, and 7-5 over an 12-game span, although not precisely at the 10-game increments that start on Opening Day.

Yes, I know.   That’s why I used the words “reported segment.”    The place where I delineate the segments is in a sense arbitrary, but on the other hand, it’s not cherry-picked to yield a favorable or unfavorable result.

OK.

When you said "reported segment", I interpreted that as any report in the thread and/or any 10-game segment of the season.
