ST. LOUIS – It was a far cry from an actual major league game, and it was far from perfect from a performance standpoint, but MacKenzie Gore’s simulated game this afternoon at Busch Stadium represented an important step in a rehab process the left-hander believes will conclude with his Nationals debut before season’s end. “Big step in the right dir

The Orioles kept Jordan Lyles at home today while he recovers from his flu-like symptoms. His status hasn’t changed and the club won’t predict his next start. Lyles was pushed back from Game 1 to Game 2 yesterday, then scratched after attempting to warm in the bullpen. “He’s feeling a little bit better today,” said manager Brandon Hyde. “Still feel

ST. LOUIS – The 2022 Nationals have not enjoyed a single four-game winning streak at any point. Nor have they won seven of nine games during any stretch this season. Imagine how encouraging it would be if they could cross both of those items off their list tonight, with those four consecutive wins all coming on the road against first-place opponent

Gunnar Henderson is the Orioles’ designated hitter tonight for the third game of their series against the Blue Jays at Camden Yards. Henderson played second base and shortstop in yesterday’s doubleheader. The rest of the lineup should look familiar. Ramón Urías is the third baseman and Rougned Odor is playing second.

There was more. Left-hander Nick Vespi also was optioned after appearing on three consec

As possible results go, this was not good. A split would have been OK, a sweep would have been preferable. But getting swept in a doubleheader to start a big four-game series was not what the Orioles had in mind at 1:05 p.m. Monday afternoon. O's pitching allowed 15 runs in the two games against Toronto. And now, during a three-game losing streak,

ST. LOUIS – His first at-bat produced in the first triple of his career. His second produced one of the hardest exit velocities of his career. His third produced an infield single in which he could show off his elite speed. His fourth produced the first three-hit game of his career. And when he singled again in his fifth and final at-bat Monday at

Anthony Santander admits that he knows nothing about Bobby Bonilla’s playing days and how their Orioles careers intersected over the weekend. “I just heard about his contract,” Santander said, laughing. “I want his agent.” The Mets owe Bonilla $1,193,248.20 every July 1 through 2035, when he’s 72-years-old, as part of their agreement on deferred mo
