Which is why they enter tonight’s contest with a 1-3 record, in search of a win before things really turn upside down on them. Their best path to making that happen? More offense. Though they’ve actually hit for power so far, with eight ho

The gigantic scoreboard in center field at Rogers Centre can’t be ignored altogether, and the zero in the Nationals’ hit column was right there in plain sight.

The Orioles used their home Opening Day to fish for compliments. Fans had to be done complaining about a series split in Toronto and another injury. This was a time to party.

TORONTO – The Nationals’ first road trip of 2025 takes them north of the border for their biannual series at Rogers Centre, longtime home of the Blue Jays. The current wind chill here in 38 degrees (Fahrenheit, not Celsius). Fortunately, the roof is closed and will remain closed. The guy on the mound tonight isn’t bothered by cold temperatures or m

The freshness and boundless optimism of a new season haven’t kept another series of injuries from striking the Orioles. They can run and dive, but they can’t hide. The latest blow arrived this morning with outfielder Colton Cowser going on the 10-day injured list with a fractured left thumb. Manager Brandon Hyde expects Cowser to miss a minimu

Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said outfielder Colton Cowser could miss six-to-eight weeks minimum with a fractured left thumb. Cowser was placed on the 10-day injured list this morning.
