Not only is Chris Davis leading all of major league baseball with 32 homers, but he is homering at a greater rate per at bat than anyone in baseball - and it's not really even that close. MLB leaders at-bats per home run: 9.50 - Chris Davis, Orioles 12.50 - Adam Dunn, Chicago White Sox & Pedro Alvarez, Pittsburgh Pirates 12.60 - Miguel Cabrera, Detroit Tigers Davis has homered seven times in 99 at-bats against left-handed pitchers for one every 14.14 at-bats. He has homered 25 times in 206...

The Orioles will go for another series win this afternoon as they play their final game at US Celluar Field in 2013. They also will try again to move a season-high 12 games above .500. The Orioles have the most road wins in the majors (69) since the start of the 2012 season. They'd like to register an even 70 before heading to the Bronx for their weekend series against the Yankees. Zach Britton remains in the rotation, but for how much longer with Wei-Yin Chen coming off the disabled list...

Twice during his brief, three-minute postgame press conference tonight, Nationals manager Davey Johnson - a man who rarely is at a lack for words - uttered a simple phrase that sums up how perplexed the Nats are by their 42-42 start this season. "I don't have any answers," Johnson said quietly. The Nationals fell to the Brewers 4-1 tonight, marking their second straight defeat at the hands of a team that sits in the cellar in the National League Central. Going into yesterday's game,...

That saying that you can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him probably applies to Chris Davis right now. Tonight, the Chicago White Sox couldn't slow him even a bit. Davis drove in three runs as the Orioles beat Chicago 4-2 in Scott Feldman's first game with the club. Davis hit a solo homer down the left-field line in the fourth to give the O's a 2-1 lead. It was his 32nd of the year. Davis drove in two runs with a double to right in the eighth to break a 2-2 tie. Yes, he gave his...

Second baseman Anthony Rendon is responsible for the only run the Nationals have scored in an 18-inning span of two losses to Milwaukee. His solo homer off of winning pitcher Kyle Lohse cut the Brewers lead to 4-1, which turned out to be the final score. Rendon said he finally got a good look at a curveball after struggling against Lohse in earlier at-bats. "I knew he was throwing it at me the whole previous at-bats," Rendon said. "He got me on the first couple and he happened to hang one...

The Orioles have chosen outfielder Henry Urrutia as their minor league Player of the Month and knuckleballer Eddie Gamboa as their Pitcher of the Month for June. Hard to argue with those choices. Urrutia moved up to Triple-A Norfolk, where he's 1-for-4 with a double and two runs scored tonight to leave his average at .238 with the Tides. He batted .365/.433/.550 with 16 doubles, seven homers and 37 RBIs in 52 games with Double-A Bowie to earn the promotion. In the month of June, Urrutia hit...

Right-hander Lucas Giolito faced only five batters in his GCL Nationals debut in Florida. It was his first professional game since recovering from Tommy John surgery. Giolito went 1/3 of an inning, allowed one hit, two runs, one earned run, two walks and one strikeout. He walked the first two batters he faced, the Cardinals' Eliezer Alvarez and Jhohan Acevedo. Giolito was replaced by Ryan Ullmann who struck out the next two hitters to get out of the inning. No specifics were available on...

As a Chicago native, T.J. McFarland's return to his hometown has been a memorable one. For starters, he has dozens of friends and family attending Wednesday's game. They're all decked out in Orioles' orange, taking up most of the section directly above the O's bullpen. On top of all the love from the section above, McFarland was greeted by Brandon Bollig and Patrick Sharp of the Chicago Blackhawks and held the Stanley Cup. Yup, I would say that's a pretty good day.

Let's look on the positive side of things. Anthony Rendon's solo home run in the seventh, the second homer of his big league career, has brought the Nationals to within three at 4-1 and prevented them from getting shut out for the second straight day. Their scoreless streak has been snapped at 15 innings, and they'll turn the lineup over and get their big bats to the plate at least once more before this game ends. However, the Nats do still trail, and they'll either get Kyle Lohse for...

Scott Feldman's first inning with the Orioles tonight was a bit rocky. Feldman allowed a run on three hits to produce a 1-1 tie. He also struck out two batters. Feldman retired the first two Chicago batters before surrendering a single to Alex Rios and an RBI double to Adam Dunn, who was 1-for-10 against him lifetime before tonight. Dayan Viciedo also singled, but Dunn held at third base for two reasons. Right fielder Nick Markakis has a plus-arm and Dunn has a piano on his back. Feldman...
