Orioles avoid sweep, but bats were silent in series loss to Twins

The Baltimore Orioles were able to avoid the sweep on Sunday with a 2-1 victory over the Minnesota Twins. Host Connor Newcomb recaps the win and gives you the five things you need to know from the game, including Jordan Westburg's painful game-winner, another great day for the bullpen, and Austin Hays leaving with injury.

Then, Connor takes a look at the recent struggles for Aaron Hicks and Ryan O'Hearn and talks about why they may have led to the Orioles offensive struggles as a team this weekend.

Finally, discusses how adding Nick Vespi and Chris Vallimont to the bullpen may be able to help the Orioles relief unit.
