If they can get this game in through the raindrops today in Baltimore, the Orioles and Royals are set to play the third and deciding game of this three-game series. It also ends the O's first homestand of the 2024 season. The Orioles produced a walk-off win on Monday night, 6-4, on Jordan Westburg's two-run homer in the ninth. They were held to thr

The Orioles will attempt today to win back-to-back series before embarking on their first road trip of the young season. They’re at the mercy of the weather. Rain continues to fall at Camden Yards and manager Brandon Hyde said the club is in “wait-and-see” mode. Asked what he’s hearing about a window, Hyde said, “That they close, also.” “It doesn’t

This year when Corbin Burnes pitches for the Orioles a lot of eyes will be on their new ace pitcher. And some of them will be coming from his new rotation mates. On Opening Day, Burnes walked none and fanned 11 over six very good innings where he gave up a Mike Trout homer in the first and then retired the next 16 batters he faced. If they can get

After making a point to keep a group of their top prospects together in the minors late last season and throughout big league camp this spring, the Nationals have split those players up to begin 2024. James Wood, Trey Lipscomb, Dylan Crews, Robert Hassell III, Brady House and Yohandy Morales all finished the 2023 season with Double-A Harrisburg, an

The rotation has taken one full turn. The first homestand reaches its conclusion this afternoon, leading to an off-day and the first road trip to Pittsburgh and Boston. Can't outrun the cold.

The grounds crew rolled up the tarp and prepped the Camden Yards field, with instructions that tonight’s game would begin at the appointed time. A light rain fell. The Orioles tried not to do the same. They were down by three runs again tonight but didn’t have a dramatic rally in them. The performance fit the dreary setting. Cole Irvin allowed four

With a walk-off win in the series opener Monday, the Orioles and Royals will try to get this game in tonight. An O's win would give them a series win heading into the scheduled third game of this series on Wednesday afternoon. Jordan Westburg's two-run homer in the last of the ninth last night was his first career walk-off homer as the Orioles won

BOWIE, Md. – Catcher Samuel Basallo, ranked as the No. 10 prospect in the sport by Baseball America and No. 17 via MLB Pipeline, will begin the season in the designated hitter role for Double-A Bowie, as expected. But he should be playing in the field within the first 10 or so games of the year. Basallo was only a DH with the Orioles in big league

The Orioles don’t know if they’re going to start tonight’s game on time. They don’t know if play will be interrupted. All they can do is try. Manager Brandon Hyde was asked whether he gets “anxious” during these moments. If he worries about his pitching and other potential complications. This isn’t his first lousy forecast. “Well, you can only cont

Colton Cowser gets his first start tonight if the weather allows the Orioles to continue their series against the Royals at Camden Yards following last night’s walk-off homer from Jordan Westburg. Cowser is playing left field. Austin Hays goes to the bench. Westburg stays in the lineup, starting at third base. Tony Kemp gets his first start at seco
