The Baltimore Orioles are making a push for the final wild card spot in the American League. The Orioles just added Luis Robert Jr. off waivers in an effort to boost the roster. One Monday night, the Orioles got a much-needed victory over the Colorado Rockies. It got the O’s back to .500 on the […]
The post Adam Jones declares Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser’s game-saving HR robbery 1 of best catches ever appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The O’s are on the hook for either Luis Robert Jr.’s $20 million team option for 2027 or a $2 million buyout. Plus, they have to get him from Queens to the Inner Harbor, which is not cheap.
They don't give style points in baseball, but if you were scoring Orioles-Rockies, you'd want to break out a second, third, maybe even a fourth color of pen to decorate the box with Colton Cowser's ninth-inning catch to save the game for Baltimore. Maybe some tempera as well. You can't make that "F8" pretty enough.
All home-run robberies are special, but they come in flavors. On most, the fielder is totally vertical—having had time to settle on the track for a towering fly ball, and lofting...
This past offseason, Pete Alonso signed the richest deal in Orioles history, trading Queens for Baltimore and a deal for $155M/five years. Through the 138 games of Alonso’s Orioles career, you could argue the Polar Bear has been underpaid. Alonso has undoubtedly been the heartbeat of an Orioles team that, after last night’s win in […]

He robs a two-run homer and turns a walkoff loss into a win
Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters. We made it to September! The Orioles are still out west for the last few games of their long road trip. I personally find this stretch of games to be a touch on the ridiculous side. After an off-day on Monday, August 24th, the Orioles traveled to St. Louis. That kicked […]
After all, it's only money.

DENVER—Colton Cowser ran back toward the center-field wall as quickly as he could. He timed his jump perfectly and had his glove above the wall when he snared Jake McCarthy’s drive to prevent it from being a game-winning home run for the Colorado Rockies. Instead, it was an incredible catch and a thrilling win for […]
Question: Now that Adley Rutschman has been traded, can we start a movement for the O’s to retire number 35. Mike Mussina was only the second-best pitcher in Orioles history. From: Dan in Hunt Valley Answer: Dan, you’re certainly able to start a movement to retire Mike Mussina’s No. 35, but I don’t think the […]
For a few moments, it looked like Jake McCarthy had hit a walk-off home run that would have given the Rockies a 3-2 win in a game that ended four hours and 33 minutes after it started. But it wasn’t meant to be. McCarthy’s bomb with two outs in the bottom of the ninth was […]
It’s just one of those things, I guess. The Orioles are playing some of their best ball of the season. The offense has been hot lately. They’ve been dispatching competitive teams, and moving up in the Wild Card chase. And so of course they’d travel to the thin air of Denver, where they’d face the […]

Folks, Orioles baseball is getting quite interesting of late. The Birds have been playing capable, credible baseball, and now they’re within one game of the last Wild Card. The offense is, maybe not humming, but it’s providing thump and interest. And lots of power: the Orioles have 31 home runs in their last 18 games. […]

Before he powered a sweep of the Athletics on Sunday with his bat, and before he helped win Saturday’s game with his glove and arm, Gunnar Henderson showed me something on a play he didn’t make. He sprinted into foul territory in pursuit of a foul ball, with Dylan Beavers and Christian Encarnacion-Strand also giving […]
