Orioles break out the brooms with 11-2 win over Rays

The O’s scored five runs in the 1st inning and never looked back, completing a sweep of the Rays with an 11-2 pummeling of the American League’s top team. The Orioles came into Wednesday’s bottom of the 1st ranked 27th in 1st inning runs and 26th in 1st inning average. But just as we saw […]

Wednesday night Orioles game thread: vs. Rays, 6:35pm ET

Where to watch: MASN/MASN+, FS1 (National) Probable pitchers: RHP Trey Gibson (0-0, 5.40 ERA, 4 K) vs. LHP Steven Matz (4-1, 3.70 ERA, 33 K) The Orioles haven’t had a lot of opportunities for statement wins in 2026. And yet, after a dramatic, extra-inning walk-off winner on Monday, and a well-rounded victory yesterday, tonight is […]

Brandon Young deserves his flowers

Baltimore’s struggles this year cannot be sourced to one specific problem. The reality is that several key contributors have been producing below their projected level. Trevor Rogers immediately comes to mind. The same can be said for Tyler O’Neill and Keegan Akin. Some players have performed fine, but not quite up to their potential. Gunnar […]

Orioles minor league recap 5/27: All nine batters get hits in dominant Keys win

Triple-A: Durham Bulls 4, Norfolk Tides 2 (F/10) The Tides allowed two runs in the top of the 10th and couldn’t answer, dropping the series opener vs. Durham in extras. After pitching a 1-2-3 9th inning, Gerald Ogando went back out for the 10th, looking to strand the Bulls’ Manfred Man. Instead, the 25-year-old right-hander […]

Orioles news: The Orioles are having a good week

Good morning Birdland, Folks, these Orioles are getting hot! They beat the Rays 6-1 on Tuesday night with relative ease. That made them winners of four out of five and clinched their second straight series win. A win tonight would be quite the statement against a Rays squad that seemed invincible just a few days […]

Baz deals, Rays infield flubs in O’s 6-1 win

Shane Baz impressed, and the Orioles took advantage of a bad night for the Rays infield. It all added up to a 6-1 O’s win on Tuesday night at Camden Yards This game sure didn’t feel like a winning performance out of the gate. Shane Baz, facing his old teammates, got into some trouble early. […]

Tuesday game thread: vs Rays, 6:35

What a difference a week makes. Just a few days ago it felt like the Orioles season was circling the drain. They had lost five of six, including three embarrassing displays down in Tampa. Now, they are winners of three out of four and the magic is emanating from them. But as the saying goes, […]

Can the 13th-inning walk off winner be a turning point for the Orioles?

The Orioles just won their most thrilling game of the season—a 13-inning affair against the Rays in which Colton Cowser hit his second walk-off home run in as many days. It was also a game that had many things the Orioles have consistently lacked this season. Kyle Bradish continued his recent resurgence, throwing six innings […]

Orioles news: Colton Cowser played the hero again

Happy Tuesday, Camden Chatters! And what a happy Tuesday it is after yesterday’s wild extra-innings win. The back-and-forth game went on for over four hours, but when the dust settled, Colton Cowser was the hero once again. He tied the game with a fantastic slide in the 12th inning, then sent the Orioles fans home […]

Cowser walks it off again as O’s win unbelievable 13-inning game

Folks. What was this baseball game??? I cannot believe what I just saw. The Orioles just won a game against the best team in baseball in which they were shut out until the seventh inning, then trailed by two runs in the 11th inning, then trailed by a run in the 12th, then trailed by […]

Memorial Day Orioles game thread: vs. Rays, 1:35

The first series of the Orioles’ season-longest 10-game homestand went reasonably well. The O’s took advantage of a reeling Tigers team to take two out of three games, though let’s not try to think about the fact that they were one strike away from losing the series. Now the task gets much tougher with a […]

Podcast: On the Orioles staying the course

The Orioles getting swept by the Rays was a lightning rod to attract a lot of criticism about the way the Orioles have been doing things so far this year. This was so true that even MASN’s Ben McDonald, who gets his paycheck from a team-owned entity, was fired up enough to unload about analytics […]

The Orioles and Tyler O’Neill cannot go on like this

Amongst a roster of underperforming hitters, Tyler O’Neill‘s poor season has managed to stand out. Brought in prior to the 2025 campaign to be a veteran power threat, the now-30-year-old has spent most of his Orioles stint either on the IL or scuffling at the plate. For an Orioles team that needs to do whatever […]

Orioles minor league recap 5/25: Six games on Sunday

Triple-A: Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (MIA) 6, Norfolk Tides 5 The Tides went up 1-0 on a Heston Kjerstad home run, then traded off four-run innings with the Jumbo Shrimp.

Orioles news: Cowser plays hero, Rogers struggles again

Good morning, Camden Chatters. If you’re an optimistic Orioles fan, you can find things to like about the Birds’ doubleheader split against the Tigers yesterday. They completed a series win over a struggling Detroit team, starting their 10-game homestand on the right foot. They got another quality start from Brandon Young, who’s stepping up his […]

Orioles offense disappears in nightcap, lose 4-1 to Tigers

The Orioles were unable to complete the double-header sweep on Sunday evening at Camden Yards, losing 4-1 to the Tigers in Game 2. The loss saw the team’s offense go quiet while starter Trevor Rogers continued to scuffle. The box score makes it look like yet another rough outing for Rogers. The lefty lasted only […]

Cowser’s three-run blast gives O’s Game 1 win, first walk-off of 2026, 5-3

“The first walk-off home run of your career,” asked MASN’s Ben Wagner. “How does it feel, Colton?” “It feels wet.” Yesterday’s weather was soggy, and on Sunday, after the Orioles’ unexpected Game 1 walk-off win and a Gatorade shower, home plate was a little soggy, too. Staring at a 3-2 hole with future Hall of […]

Sunday doubleheader Orioles game thread: vs. Detroit, 12:35 and 6:35 ET

Not even a rainout can stop these red-hot Orioles! Perhaps I exaggerate just a bit. But after a convincing 7-4 win on Friday night, one can almost glimpse what this team could be. Maybe a series against last-place Detroit was just what these Birds need to kickstart their herky-jerky season. Don’t discount the importance of […]

Orioles news: Doubleheader with Tigers awaits

Hello, friends. Weather robbed us of the Orioles getting to play yesterday. Given their all-too-frequent play this season, it may be that nothing was lost to the fan in not seeing the Orioles. As Zagreus is frequently reminded in the video game Hades, there is no escape. There will be two O’s games today, whether […]

He struck out five and walked one. It was German’s longest outing of the year. Nick Raquet, Cameron Foster, […]
