Orioles Health & Fitness Challenge returning to Sarasota County middle schoolers

January 19, 2018, 7:06am

Orioles

Orioles pitchers and catchers are reporting to the Ed Smith Stadium complex in Sarasota, Fla., in just a few short weeks, meaning spring is right around the corner. Goodbye, winter's chill, hello spring's warmth. While the weather warms up and the Orioles get ready to start baseball activities, the organization is encouraging the youth of Sarasota County to do the same! Maybe not necessarily with baseball, but definitely in terms of getting active. (Especially since they essentially get...

#NoOffseason takes a look at Schoop's impact on his native CuraÃ§ao

It's the offseason, and even though players try their best to rest and decompress, they don't get too far away from baseball. Take Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop, for example. Coming off a career year in which he slashed .293/.338/.503 with career highs of 32 home runs and 105 RBIs, Schoop has been busy readying himself for next season in his native CuraÃ§ao. But there's only so much time for workouts and preparation. And part of Schoop's offseason has been spent in his native...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Beckham quickly impresses in first week with Orioles

January 17, 2018, 6:47am

Orioles

Tim Beckham became a welcome addition to the Orioles lineup when he joined the team at the 2017 trade deadline and immediately impressed fans in his first week with the club. He started things off with a 12-game hitting streak from Aug. 1-12, which led to him earning his first American League Player of the Week honor (for July 31-Aug. 6). Beckham became the third player since 1954 to have a hitting streak of at least 12 games to begin their O's career. In those first 12 games with Baltimore,...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: O's turn two triple plays in one season

January 10, 2018, 1:55pm

Orioles

The 2017 season was the year of the triple play for Baltimore. One of the rarest feats in baseball, the Orioles accomplished it twice in two different ballparks almost three months apart. The first was on May 2 at Fenway Park and was a bit unconventional. A popup from Jackie Bradley Jr. failed to meet J.J. Hardy's glove, but he quickly tossed the ball over to Jonathan Schoop, who tagged Mitch Moreland before touching second to force Dustin Pedroia out, then fired it over to Chris Davis to get...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Trey Mancini gifts O's comeback win

Orioles

Trey Mancini was the gift that kept on giving this past season for the Orioles. Coming into spring training with questions of whether he was ready, where he would play and if he could make the big league club, Mancini broke camp with the Orioles and produced one of the best rookie seasons in franchise history. In 147 games, he slashed .293/.338/.488 with 24 home runs and 78 RBIs, finishing third in American League Rookie of the Year voting, behind the Yankees' Aaron Judge and the Red Sox's...

"Orioles Classics" #TBT: Adam Jones records career hit No. 1,500

December 13, 2017, 5:44am

Orioles

The 2017 season was full of record-breaking games for Orioles outfielder Adam Jones. One of his first celebratory moments came on April 24, when he recorded his 1,500th career hit with a fifth-inning single against the Rays' Chris Archer. Always humble, Jones didn't realize he reached a milestone until after the game: His day wasn't over yet. In the seventh inning, Jones' 1,501st hit was a two-run homer that gave the O's the lead in a 6-3 win. Jones ended the season with 1,650 career...

"Word art" print of Camden Yards contains names of every player in O's history

If a picture's worth a thousand words, how many words would it take to quantify Orioles history, from the time the team landed in Baltimore from St. Louis in 1954 to the Trey Mancini strikeout that ended the Birds' 2017 campaign at Tropicana Field on Oct. 1? For Philadelphia artist Daniel Duffy, the answer is simple: 1,046, the number of players that have donned Orioles orange and black in the team's history. Duffy, 37, has created one of this year's hottest O's-themed holidays gifts: a...
