O's poor at taking advantage of free baserunners

[Ori-Al]

Whether they reach via walk, HBP, error, or misplay that isn't charged as error, the O's do a poor job of scoring those runners. This series has been a perfect example. Leadoff walks, and a two base error followed by a muffed shallow fly ball, back to back one out errors tonight, resulted in no runs. That's been a problem all season.

Can you provide some evidence of this assertion? I'm curious how the O's fare compared to the rest of the league.

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, I don't have stats. Just what I see.

They did finally take some advantage of free baserunners in the eighth tonight. Two walks and an HBP to start the inning led to two runs.

They are available. Instead of just random assertions, maybe back it up?

Those would be hard to find. But in the absence of actual stats, I can't say that I agree with Ori-Al's premise.
