The Orioles have had solid success this season playing within the American League East. In fact, they have not lost an AL East road series this year and they'd like to keep that record intact tonight. The Orioles have won six and tied one road series in the division in 2014. They have lost just three AL East series overall on the year, going 8-3-2 and they have lost just one of their last 11 series, going 8-1-2. That was when they went 1-3 at home against Tampa Bay at the end of June. The...

I felt it," Harper said. "It was a ball that I thought I hit pretty well. Torres got me last night with a curveball down and in. I didn't think I would really see...

It took nearly five hours and 13 innings, but the Nationals earned a series win over the Mets. Bryce Harper's two-run walk-off homer gave the Nats a 5-3 win over the Mets. The bullpen pitched 6 2/3 innings scoreless innings, highlighted by three scoreless frames from Craig Stammen. On Harper's two-run, game-winning homer: "That was a good swing. He had a couple of good ones today. It's coming. I'm happy for him, happy for our guys they battled. It's even better that (Harper's)...

If you follow Orioles center fielder Adam Jones on Twitter or watch his postgame interviews, you've probably seen or heard his famous "Stay Hungry" slogan. While known for his stellar play on the field, when you hear "Adam Jones," you also think of his love of food. He even created his own signature burger, the @SimplyAJ10 at The Abbey Burger Bistro in Baltimore. Check out the delicious-looking burger below. (Author's note: I've had the @SimplyAJ10 burger, and it was...

From watching Matt Williams on and off the field, one word immediately comes to mind when I think about the Nationals skipper: intense. The manager often appears serious and in the zone while managing his team. But that doesn't mean he doesn't also have fun and let loose. You'll see the best of both worlds from Williams at our upcoming Fan Challenge, presented by CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield! We're inviting you to take on Williams at his own game. What's that game, you ask? Fungo golf!...

Yesterday, the Orioles named minor league pitcher Luis Gonzalez the organizational Pitcher of the Month for July. That is a nice honor for a player who has barely been in the organization for a year. The 22-year-old left-hander from the Dominican Republic was originally signed by the Phillies, but they released him. On July 18, 2013 the Orioles signed him as a minor league free agent. "Our Latin American program did a really good job of finding this guy as a released player in the...

The rubber match between the Nationals and Mets features a pair of right-handers who have been pitching well. Mets right-hander Jacob deGrom has won five straight games while Nationals right-hander Jordan Zimmermann is coming off a dominant performance. Zimmermann went seven innings on August 2 in an 11-0 win over the Phillies. He struck out eight, walked none, allowed only five hits and no runs for his first win since June 30. In the bottom of the second, Adam LaRoche doubled to lead off...

Second baseman Danny Espinosa hit a three-run homer Wednesday in the Nationals' 7-1 win over the Mets. The discrepancy in his splits has been well documented from the right side (.310 vs. left-handers) and the left side of the plate (.184 vs. right-handers). Espinosa said after last night's game that he wasn't against abandoning switch-hitting, but that he can't just do that midseason. Manager Matt Williams said he has seen players in the past that have been able to do that. "Sure,...

Jose Lobaton will once again get the start behind the plate for the Nationals this afternoon. Wilson Ramos, who has been on the Paternity List since Tuesday, is still at the hospital with his family following the birth of his first daughter. Jordan Zimmermann will take the mound for the Nats. Over his last two starts, Zimmermann is 1-0 with a 1.29 ERA and has struck out 14. He will be facing rookie Jacob deGrom. For the Nats CF Denard Span 3B Anthony Rendon RF Jayson Werth 1B Adam...
