TORONTO – Japanese right-hander Shintaro Fujinami entered in the sixth inning last night and pitched two scoreless in the Orioles' win over the Yankees. His fastball again touched 100 mph and his splitter got swings and misses at 93 mph. That is three straight scoreless with the Orioles for Fujinami, who will continue to get action in high-leverage

Game 107 lineups: Nats vs. Brewers

Nationals
This is a weird portion of the Nationals schedule. They just went on the road for only four days. Now they’re back home for only three days before leaving town again. This quick homestand comes against the Brewers, who are locked in a tight race with the Reds atop the NL Central. Milwaukee pitches well, so it’s going to be a challenge for a Nats li

Pulling out the close games has helped the Orioles surge into first place

Orioles
It does confound some analysts. The Orioles, while ranking 10th in MLB in run differential, are second in the sport in winning percentage. Just how are they doing that? Winning a lot of close games is how. Ironically, when the Orioles returned to the playoffs in 2012 after a 14-year drought, they won a lot of close games. That team had a plus seven

NEW YORK – The first time came on the back end of a perfectly executed double-steal, with Jeimer Candelario drawing the throw to second to allow CJ Abrams to race home from third. The second time came moments after a pickoff attempt, Abrams immediately swiping second ahead of the throw. And by the third time Abrams attempted to steal Sunday afterno

Trade deadlines in the Orioles’ rebuild kept players on edge, wondering if they were headed out the door or which teammates and friends might beat them to it. They checked social media posts and read the transaction scrolls on television, which alerted a few, like second baseman Jonathan Schoop, who hadn’t heard from the team or an agent after arri

Three forearm smashes and a hand slap. That’s what awaited Adam Frazier tonight after he crossed home plate in the first inning. Before he reached the top step of the dugout. In the middle of the latest beating administered to Yankees starter Luis Severino. The Orioles sent 11 batters to the plate, scored seven runs and turned ESPN’s first Camden Y

The Orioles and New York Yankees will play tonight to wrap up this series and their 2023 season series. The clubs will not meet again this year after tonight. The Orioles blanked New York 1-0 Friday night on Anthony Santander’s walk-off home run in the last of the ninth. New York won 8-3 last night as right-hander Tyler Wells allowed three runs ove

Orioles manager Brandon Hyde isn’t ready to name a starter for Thursday afternoon’s series finale in Toronto. “This is an unusual week,” he said, smiling, “so we’ll see what happens.” The trade deadline could influence the choice after the Orioles optioned Tyler Wells to Double-A Bowie. Jordan Montgomery is the latest starter to tumble off the boar
