The last time the Jays were at Camden Yards, Josh Donaldson hit a grand slam, and we were blessed with the “what are you going to do now, Buck?” moment. It’s been a while.
Since we saw the Orioles last week, they were swept in a 4 game series by the Yankees, bringing their losing streak to 8 straight.
In the weirdest of things, check out the factoid for today’s date in the official Blue Jays’ Calendar:

And since it’s all about Kendrys these days, here’s a sweet quote from Gibby:
Gibby: Morales is a great mentor to young guys, a great teammate. He’s always hanging around with them, playing cards. I don’t know what he’s saying to them, but they all love him. The whole team does, you can tell by how they react when he does good things on the field #Bluejays

Here are the lineups for tonight. Granderson will start in the outfield the first time in a while, McKinney bats second, and Maile will catch for Sam Gaviglio.
