Washington Nationals Managing Principal Owner Mark D. Lerner:“On behalf of my family and the entire Washington Nationals organization, I’d like to congratulate Sean on a fantastic career and thank him for all that he’s done for our city and our franchise. An All-Star and a World Series champion, he was not only a fierce competitor, but is one of th
Sean Doolittle, who helped reshape the Nationals bullpen into a unit worthy of a World Series title and in the process became a fan favorite for his performance, big personality and community involvement, announced his retirement today. The popular left-hander, who turns 37 next week, was hoping to make it back to pitch for the Nationals after a pa
CLEVELAND – Nine Orioles minor league players and one coach are included on the Mesa Solar Sox roster in the Arizona Fall League, which begins Oct. 2. The organization is sending pitchers Carter Baumler, Zack Peek, Trey McGough, Carlos Tavera and Peter Van Loon, catcher Connor Pavolony, infielders TT Bowens and Billy Cook, and outfielder John Rhode
It is not a great morning to speak well of the Orioles offense, I grant that. They have scored a combined three runs the last two games. That was after scoring 30 runs in a four-game span. And that was after scoring six runs in a four-game span. But overall, for the year, if you go by the most basic of stats – runs scored – the Orioles offense has
As we get closer to the end of the season, a new season is upon us: award season. The Nationals kicked things off yesterday by announcing their 2023 Minor League Award winners: * Hitter of the Year – James Wood* Pitcher of the Year – Andrew Alvarez* Defensive Player of the Year – Trey Lipscomb* Baserunner of the Year – Johnathon Thomas* Nationals W
CLEVELAND - The Orioles must make it through the last three games of this road trip and the six that await them at home before their first playoff exposure since 2016. They don’t know whether they’re beginning at Camden Yards in the Division Series or as the top wild card. Those are the two possibilities. I’ve got three more questions as the club f
Thursday night started with a lot of positive energy for the Nationals. The team was still relishing Wednesday’s blowout win over the White Sox to clinch a series victory and put them two wins away from their first 70-win season since 2019. It was Hispanic Heritage Night at the ballpark, so all of the Nats’ Hispanic players, coaches and staff membe
CLEVELAND – If the Guardians couldn’t get a run off Grayson Rodriguez tonight, maybe they’d just concentrate on getting him out of the game. Build up his pitch count with extended at-bats fueled by foul balls, dive into an Orioles bullpen that’s screaming for rest. Rodriguez kept escaping jams to record four scoreless innings, but the Guardians bro
The Orioles begin their final regular season road series of 2023 tonight when they play the first of a four-game series against the Guardians. The Orioles went 2-1 against the Astros to begin the season’s final road trip. The Orioles are 50-27 on the road and have become the third club in team history to win 50 or more road games. If the O’s go 2-2
CLEVELAND – The trainers’ room on the visiting side at Progressive Field attracted a large crowd this afternoon. The Orioles didn’t have injury issues. It wasn't about receiving treatment. They had a strong curiosity about the finish of the Rays-Angels game, and that's the television they chose over the ones inside their clubhouse. Tampa Bay rallie
