Ryan O’Hearn has opened up a commanding lead in voting for American League designated hitter for next month’s All-Star Game in Atlanta. O’Hearn has received 937,205 votes to stay well ahead of the Yankees’ Ben Rice (409,336). This would be O’Hearn’s first All-Star selection. Nelson Cruz in 2014 is the only Orioles designated hitter to be elected by

LOS ANGELES – It’s easy to overlook now, because of the ultimately lopsided nature of Sunday’s game, but the Nationals and Dodgers were actually engaged in a tight, closely played contest into the seventh inning. Even after Jose A. Ferrer served up Max Muncy’s grand slam in the bottom of the sixth, the Nats only trailed 4-3, with plenty of opportun

NEW YORK – The Orioles almost have become numb to the injuries ravaging their roster again in 2025. Catcher Adley Rutschman won’t return until after the break due to a strained left oblique, marking his first career trip to the IL. Infielder Jordan Westburg is day-to-day with a sprained left index finger, but he's going to join Rutschman if he isn’

LOS ANGELES – Michael Soroka was cruising, - dominating, if we’re being honest - a Dodgers lineup that rarely finds itself in such a position. And thanks to Nathaniel Lowe’s latest clutch blast, the Nationals were in control at Chavez Ravine, looking to pull off what could only be considered an improbable weekend series victory over the defending W

LOS ANGELES – Inside a joyous Nationals clubhouse late Saturday night, Nathaniel Lowe was asked about the significance of the 100th home run of his career. “It’s super cool,” the veteran first baseman said. “I never would have thought that would have been an option.” For a 13th-round draft pick who debuted with the Rays in 2019, was dealt to the Ra

NEW YORK – Jackson Holliday singled on the first pitch thrown this morning. The Orioles had their fill yesterday of no-hit tomfoolery. Get that drama out of the way quickly and go about trying to win a series. They made it to the eighth inning before losing their lead, and the series. Jazz Chisholm Jr. lined a two-run double into right-center field

LOS ANGELES – Guess who has played some pretty good baseball here the last two nights? Yeah, that would be your Washington Nationals, who narrowly lost Friday night’s series opener and then bounced back by blasting five homers Saturday night to convincingly beat the Dodgers. And just like that, they have an opportunity today to both win this series

NEW YORK – Orioles reliever Yennier Cano struck out the side yesterday in the seventh inning and was optioned after the game. Overall production and limited bullpen flexibility doomed the 2023 All-Star. Reliever Yaramil Hiraldo was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk. He’s using Cano’s locker at Yankee Stadium. Cano has a 4.73 ERA and 1.388 WHIP in 32 g

The Orioles have made the following roster moves: Recalled RHP Yaramil Hiraldo from Triple-A Norfolk.Optioned RHP Yennier Cano to Triple-A Norfolk after yesterday’s game.

NEW YORK – Tony Mansolino issued an unintentional warning yesterday to opposing hitters. The Orioles’ interim manager was asked whether reliever Félix Bautista is resembling the pre-elbow surgery version of himself, the dominant All-Star closer from 2023. Is The Mountain at his peak? “I still think there’s another gear. I really do,” Mansolino said
