The Latest Breaking News from Brandon Hyde

Not so long ago, the errors seen at Camden Yards in the fifth inning would’ve likely been seen with the Orioles in the field rather than at the plate. On Sunday afternoon, though, the myriad accidents were courtesy of the Los Angeles Angels, part of a second consecutive four-run inning…
