This is the type of game where, if you look at it on the surface, the Orioles don’t stand a chance. Suddenly, they are on a four-game skid that could turn into a downward death spiral as the schedule gets tougher. Their opponent has been one of the best team’s in the league since the […]
BALTIMORE—Outfielder Tyler O’Neill, who’s on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation, is eligible to return, but he’s not close to playing. Manager Craig Albernaz didn’t sound optimistic that O’Neill would return before the season ends on September 27th. “It’s tough what he’s dealing with right now,” Albernaz said. “We’re trying to assess him […]
The Red Sox enter tonight’s game against the Orioles with a 77-65 record, 12 games above .500. Sonny Gray, who hasn’t pitched in ten days, also enters tonight 12 games above .500 with a personal record of 16-4. It’s probably a bit strong to say the Red Sox would be a .500 team without Gray, […]

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Blaze Alexander said he felt he made a clean slide into second base Friday night before an argument that led to a benches-clearing brawl with the Boston Red Sox.
An apparent stare-down was all it took for Blaze Alexander to spark a benches-clearing incident on Friday. Essentially a pitcher’s duel, the rivalry between the AL East rivals, the Boston Red Sox and the Baltimore Orioles, spilled over in the late innings. The crowd at Camden Yards witnessed the two teams turn a routine double […]

Manager Craig Albernaz: “With LDL, all the feedback we were getting is this is something he’s ready for.”
Good morning Birdland, You would have thought that Colton Cowser’s catch in Colorado a few days ago would have been the exact kind of jet fuel the Orioles needed to really go on a run and take the AL’s final wild card for themselves. Instead, they have now lost four in a row since that […]
BALTIMORE—Three surviving members of the 1966 Orioles World Series team, the one that shockingly beat the Los Angeles Dodgers in four games to win the team’s first title, threw out first pitches before Friday night’s game against the Boston Red Sox. Jim Palmer, Boog Powell and reliever Eddie Watt were on hand, and watched the […]
A few days ago, cracks were beginning to show in a Red Sox rotation that has spent much of the summer trying to survive an endless string of injuries.Two nights in Baltimore have provided a much-needed response.After Jake Bennett settled things down Thursday, Ranger Suarez looked like his first-half All-Star self Friday, tossing seven scoreless innings as the Red Sox edged the Orioles, 1-0, at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
The Orioles and Red Sox faced off for the second game of their four-game series, and once again the Orioles were unable to give starter Shane Baz any run support. Baz and Red Sox starter Ranger Suarez dueled and ended with similar results, the only difference being one first-inning run. That was enough to decide […]
Ranger Suarez was everything this team needed on Friday night. Seven innings. Zero runs. Ten ground ball outs. No serious threats from a Baltimore lineup that came in buzzing after Thursday’s seven-homer drama. Suarez just went out there and made them pound the ball into the ground, inning after inning after inning. It was the […]
The Orioles handed Colorado its franchise-record 10th consecutive home loss Monday night when Colton Cowser robbed Jake McCarthy of a potential two-run walk-off home run to preserve a 2-1 Baltimore win. The Rockies responded with a 4-2 win Tuesday before taking Wednesday’s finale 6-5 in 11 innings. Colorado was down to its final strike in […]

The Orioles could have won last night, but they didn’t. A night where Adley Rutschman returned and hit two home runs, but the Orioles still won, would have been a pretty decent outcome in my book. Brandon Young did his part. Pete Alonso, Luis Robert, and Christian Encarnacion-Strand homered. But the bullpen blew it. It […]
BALTIMORE—Ryan Helsley, who began the season as the Orioles’ closer but has had two lengthy stints on the injured list that have limited him to 17 games, still might pitch in the final games of the season, manager Craig Albernaz said on Friday. Helsley last pitched on June 27th and has been on the 60-day […]
We’re all grown-ups here (speaking personally … sort of?). On that dark day in early August where Adley Rutschman was traded to the Boston Red Sox for four prospects and a backup catcher, I comprehended the cold, rational logic of the deal. Perhaps injuries would keep the O’s 2019 1/1 guy from ever being a […]

The Red Sox roster could look a lot different in the next couple of weeks.
Adley Rutschman made MLB history Thursday night with a record-setting performance against his former team, the Baltimore Orioles.
It is rare for a Major League Baseball player to produce a stat line that has never been seen in the history of the sport. Yet Adley Rutschman did just that, reaching an unprecedented milestone while suiting up for the Boston Red Sox during their recent series against his former team, the Baltimore Orioles.
According to OptaStats , Rutschman became the first ...
The Baltimore Orioles, in need of a right-handed-hitting outfielder who can play center field, claimed Luis Robert Jr. off waivers from the New York Mets on Monday. Robert, 29, spent the first six seasons of his career with the Chicago White Sox. The White Sox gave him a six-year, $50 million pre-arbitration extension in 2020, […]
