With an Orioles 5–3 win over the White Sox on Wednesday, they are now. 500.

The news unfortunately comes on the same day the bullpen loses a key piece.

Baltimore's right-handed pitcher Zach Eflin has had season-ending Tommy John surgery, according to ESPN.

The 32-year-old's season came to a pause after 3 innings during his first start against the Texas Rangers back on March 31st.

He was experiencing right elbow discomfort. The O's would transfer him to the 60-day injured list.

Last season, he was placed on the injury list three times as a result of back and lat issues.
