Context surrounding the new york yankees vs. baltimore orioles meeting carries added weight after New York dropped three consecutive games heading into Monday, snapping momentum built during their nine-game win streak against Baltimore. The Orioles enter the series searching for traction after a difficult stretch against the Athletics, where their offense produced only 5.2 runs per game while allowing 4.4.
