DL Hall closes in but still some work to do, plus O's notes and Hays' cycle
Steve Melewski
Orioles
He is one of baseball’s best pitching prospects, lefty DL Hall of the Triple-A Norfolk Tides, the Orioles top draft pick from 2017. They selected the lefty from a Georgia high school No. 21 overall and now he is on the doorstep of the majors. But when he'll take that next big step is the question now for the Orioles as Hall closes in. Perhaps his l

BALTIMORE – The Nationals and Orioles knew it was going to start raining at some point tonight, it was just a matter of when. And once it began, whether it would stop for any reasonable length of time. So that turned tonight’s game into something of a three-way battle between Patrick Corbin, Tyler Wells and Mother Nature. And in the end, Mother Nat

Hays hits for cycle in 7-0, six-inning win (updated)

Orioles
Rain began falling again tonight in the bottom of the sixth inning, threatening to form more puddles on the track and bring a second delay. Conditions that normally aren’t ideal for cycling. But in the baseball sense, they worked just fine for Orioles outfielder Austin Hays. Hays lined a double into left-center field off Nationals reliever Steve Ci

O's game blog: Looking for a series split against Washington
Steve Melewski
Orioles
After being shut out 3-0 on Tuesday night in Baltimore, the Orioles need a win at home tonight versus the Washington Nationals to split this two-game interleague series. And they turn to their hottest starting pitcher to get it done. The Orioles have won four consecutive starts made by right-hander Tyler Wells (4-4, 3.62 ERA) and he has recorded th

Several rehabbing pitchers getting closer to return

BALTIMORE – Though none of them are ready to return yet, several rehabbing Nationals pitchers are moving closer to rejoining the active roster, a potential boon for an overworked staff this summer. Mason Thompson began a rehab assignment for Triple-A Rochester today and tossed a scoreless inning, with a strikeout during the frame. The right-hander,

The Orioles are listing three of their four starters for the upcoming series in Chicago. Saturday afternoon remains wide open and is largely dependent on how manager Brandon Hyde uses his bullpen. Austin Voth could get the ball again after starting Sunday against the Rays as a last-minute replacement for Jordan Lyles, who was scratched due to a sto

BALTIMORE – After a beautiful, unseasonably mild Tuesday evening here, it’s a very seasonable, hot and muggy and wet Wednesday afternoon here as the Nationals and Orioles prepare to wrap up their two-game interleague series.

O's get quality start but no runs in loss to Washington
Steve Melewski
Orioles
Jordan Lyles delivered a quality start but the Orioles at-bats too often lacked true quality and they were blanked 3-0 by the Washington Nationals. The Orioles were shutout for the fifth time this year as earlier they were blanked by the Rays, Tigers, Yankees and Mariners. Baltimore beat Tampa Bay on Friday with one run on five hits and again won S
