TORONTO - As he keeps mashing homers – he’s now hit a career-high 34 with a lot of games to play – O’s outfielder Anthony Santander is sure having a great “walk year.” That is the year that leads into a player becoming a free agent and Santander can be that at the end of this season for the first time. Not a bad time to be putting up big numbers an

With the threat of rain looming all day, the Nationals hoped their decision to move first pitch of today’s series finale against the Giants up from 4:05 p.m. to 12:05 p.m. would give them the best chance of playing the entire game. The only question was how long it would take for the game to be played, and how many times it would be disrupted by th

TORONTO - The Orioles have gone 7-1-2 in 10 American League East series this year, losing just one. Tonight they play the rubber match game against Toronto after splitting the first two games of this series. The Orioles are 7-5 versus the Blue Jays and have won the season series. They are 24-11 against division opponents. They have not lost a road

Alex Call had already made one diving catch to end an inning, not to mention singled twice and produced the Nationals’ first run of Wednesday night’s game against the Giants. Eleven days into his latest stint in the big leagues, the 29-year-old outfielder had done just about everything that could be asked of him, providing a welcome spark for a ros

They managed to play the first three games of this series without interruption. Can they actually pull it off and complete the series without issues? The Nationals are sure hoping their decision to move today’s game against the Giants up from 4:05 p.m. to 12:05 p.m. pays off. The forecast isn’t great, but hopefully whatever rain falls this afternoo

TORONTO – It didn't happen in April when he went 2-for-34 with 18 strikeouts. But it's happening now. Jackson Holliday, who will not turn 21 until Dec. 4, is now doing special things for the Orioles. So special that last night, Holliday's go-ahead homer in the seventh led the Orioles to a win but he also became the youngest player in American Leagu

Small sample sizes shouldn’t produce a chorus of long-term outlooks. The word “small” is the giveaway Baseball requires patience over the course of a 162-game season. OK, we got that out of the way. Left-hander Gregory Soto has made three appearances with the Orioles since the deadline trade with the Phillies. He’s allowed eight runs and nine hits

TORONTO – The kid did it again. Jackson Holliday hit yet another homer off the Toronto Blue Jays and this one was huge. With the Orioles down 3-2 in the seventh, Holliday connected on a two-run shot – his fourth in seven games since rejoining the club – and the O’s had a 4-3 lead. Anthony Santander provided insurance, with a solo homer in the eight

There wasn’t much of anything Jake Irvin could do about the two runs the Giants scored off him during a sequence of unfortunate events in the top of the third tonight at Nationals Park. There was quite a bit he could’ve done about the three runs that scored off him the next two innings, ultimately the decisive runs in the home team’s 7-4 loss. Need

TORONTO - After losing both a game and pitcher Grayson Rodriguez to injury last night, the Orioles have to figure night two in Toronto will go better for them.  Now in second place for the first time in over a month (since June 26), the Orioles 67-47 are now 33-22 on the road and 6-5 against Toronto. The Birds had won the last two games at Clevelan
