The Orioles have a massive negative run differential, but yet have a 69-57 record. Their pythW-L is 58-68. The difference is their one-run game record... 23-6.
Here is the raw data for the whole league:

I say... this is a good week for the Sox to chisel away at the Orioles' distorted W-L record. But I guess we should beware if we find ourselves in very close games late. This Orioles team has been doing something very special or has been very lucky in 1-run games. Let's help them regress to the mean!
And our White Sox are 22-15 in one-run games, the next best record in the AL.
