No Orioles starter this season has gone deeper into a game than Kevin Gausman. The only question tonight was whether he'd be rewarded with a win. He settled for a no-decision. The Orioles got the win. Pedro Alvarez's fly ball to center field scored pinch-runner Nolan Reimold in the bottom of the 10th inning and gave the Orioles a 1-0 victory before 19,598 at Camden Yards. Hyun Soo Kim led off with an infield hit against Johnny Barbato, his fifth of the season, and raced to third on Jonathan...

CHICAGO - The opener of a marquee series between the National League's top two teams featured plenty of big names, plenty of dominant pitching performances and some highlight-reel defense. What it didn't include was very much offense by the visitors. The Cubs managed to pull off a 5-2 victory over the Nationals thanks to a pair of big hits by Ben Zobrist: His two-run single to right in the bottom of the fourth, then his two-run homer in the bottom of the eighth, spoiling a mostly strong...

After they dueled through nine scoreless innings tonight, the Orioles produced a walk-off win in the last of the 10th against the Yankees. Hyun Soo Kim led off the 10th with a high-chop infield hit off right-hander Johnny Barbato. Then he advanced to third on Jonathan Schoop's second hit of the night, a single to center. The O's sent out Nolan Reimold to third to pinch-run for Kim and New York went to Andrew Miller to face lefty-hitting Pedro Alvarez. Alvarez ended the game with a sac fly to...

CHICAGO - Joe Ross showed no fear in staring down the Cubs lineup in his first career start at Wrigley Field. But you can't hold these guys down forever, and Chicago's big bats got to Ross in the fourth inning tonight to take a 2-0 lead on the Nationals. Ben Zobrist's single to right brought home the first two runs of this highly anticipated series and sent Ross' ERA "soaring" over the 1.00 mark for the first time. The inning featured some shaky defense - Michael A. Taylor couldn't haul...

CHICAGO - Ben Revere joined the Nationals at Wrigley Field today, put on his uniform and participated fully in all pregame drills before the opener of a big, four-game series against the Cubs. But he didn't suit up for the game itself and remains on the disabled list for another day, a decision the club made to remain cautious with their returning leadoff man and center fielder. Given the fact Revere hasn't played in a big league game since straining his right oblique muscle 31 days ago, and...

The Orioles have won three of four series against American League East teams this year. Tonight's game against the Yankees will decide this series after the teams exchanged wins the last two nights. The Orioles are 8-5 against AL East teams, going 2-1 against Boston, 3-2 against Tampa Bay, 2-1 versus Toronto and 1-1 against New York. Orioles starting pitchers are slowly making some progress. After the team's rotation produced just three quality starts in the season's first 18 games, they now...

Darren O'Day is likely to take the ball tonight if the Orioles are in a save situation. However, Zach Britton is on the verge of reclaiming the ninth-inning responsibilities after spraining his left ankle over the weekend. "Zach had a good day today," said manager Buck Showalter. "Very close. He's close to being available." The decision to go back to a 12-man staff probably won't be made until Britton appears in a game and is fine the next day. "The need for an infielder might take...

Orioles center fielder Adam Jones can be a focal point for fan criticism when both he and his team's offense are struggling. And right now, some fans have expressed concern about his slow start. Through 22 games, the O's five-time All-Star is batting .205 with one homer and seven RBIs. He is slugging just .295 with an OPS of .582. His career numbers in both categories are .460 and .778. Is it that strong track record of success that can lead his manager Buck Showalter to expect Jones to start...

Orioles manager Buck Showalter said today that closer Zach Britton is "very close" to being available. Britton sprained his left ankle Saturday night. He threw in the bullpen again today and performed fielding drills without any setbacks. Showalter really wants a four-man bench and having Britton ready to pitch would provide the green light for the Orioles to bring up another position player. Infielder Paul Janish is in Houston for the birth of his third child on Friday. However, the Orioles...
