Orioles Set AL Mark For Home Runs Allowed 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Aug 13, 2019 11:55 am

After allowing seven home runs during their doubleheader against the New York Yankees on Monday, the Baltimore Orioles stand alone historically.

The Orioles have allowed an American League-record 248 home runs this season. It took them just 119 games to set the mark.

The Major League record for home runs allowed is 268, by the 2016 Cincinnati Reds. The Orioles are on pace to allow more than 330 home runs this season.

Makes sense, seeing how they haven't had a proper ace in over 20 years. Unbelievable.
