If it feels like the Baltimore Orioles have accomplished something historic these past couple years, there are some numbers that back that up. After beating Tampa Bay in extra innings Sunday, the AL East-leading Orioles are 93-56 for a winning percentage of .624. Two years ago, they finished 52-110 (.321). Only one team has ever improved its winning percentage by .300 or more within two seasons, according to Sportradar. That was the New York Giants, way back at the beginning of the modern era.
