As the Nationals took the field for batting practice Friday afternoon, Miguel Cairo motioned to Keibert Ruiz and José Tena to come join him at first base. To field grounders. And make some throws. And learn a little bit about a position neither of them has ever played before in a game. It made for quite the scene, both because the 51-year-old inter
Two games into this four-game series, the Nationals and Phillies have each won once. Each was a competitive game decided late by the bullpens. It’s kind of been fun to watch, hasn’t it? So, what’s in store for game three of the weekend set later this afternoon? The headline attraction from the Nats’ standpoint is Cade Cavalli, who makes his third s

Tonight, many in Daikin Park may have shared that thought about Brandon Young. The rookie looked sharp through three. Then, he was through fo
That the Nationals found themselves in a position to win tonight’s game against the Phillies was a testament to MacKenzie Gore’s intestinal fortitude over six gutsy innings and the lineup’s ability to actually make Zack Wheeler work enough to knock him out after only five. These two division rivals, residing at opposite ends of the NL East, were ti
HOUSTON – On Friday, Aug. 1, the Orioles roster looked drastically different for an afternoon contest at Wrigley Field. Gone were four members of the lineup, a starting pitcher and four key pieces of the bullpen, including a new resident of Chicago, Andrew Kittredge.

As the latter stages of Thursday night’s game was playing out, Cole Henry started to get the sense he was going to be the man holding the ball for the top of the ninth. With interim manager Miguel Cairo using new closer Jose A. Ferrer to face the heart of the Phillies lineup with a one-run lead in the eighth, Henry was told by bullpen coach Ricky B
The Orioles have been held to four hits or fewer 22 times this season, tied with the Pirates for second most in the majors behind the Rangers’ 25. They’ve scored five runs or fewer in 12 straight games since Aug. 1. But they won the last two against the Mariners, including their first walk-off, to complete the homestand.
