#TBT: Adam Jones dives, robs Coco Crisp

#TBT: Adam Jones dives, robs Coco Crisp
On last week's #TBT post, we watched second baseman Jonathan Schoop absolutely destroy a baseball, sending it 484 feet for a huge homer at Kauffman Stadium. This week, we're looking at a play that's equally as dazzling, but switching gears to the defensive side of things. While he didn't have his healthiest season in 2015, All-Star center fielder Adam Jones continued to make some spectacular grabs. One of his best was against the A's, robbing Coco Crisp. After Jones made the diving snag,...

#TBT: Jonathan Schoop clobbers 484-foot homer

#TBT: Jonathan Schoop clobbers 484-foot homer
At just 24, Jonathan Schoop has proven to be a strong defensive asset in the middle of the infield. He has also showcased his power. Despite being limited to 86 games in 2015, the second baseman still belted 15 homers for the Birds. And were any of his home runs more impressive than his mammoth bomb off Johnny Cueto at Kauffman Stadium? Schoop got all of it, but the sky-high ball flirted with the foul pole and was just fair. Rewatch the huge 484-foot homer (and Adam Jones' awesome reaction)...

#TBT: Walk this way

#TBT: Walk this way
So what's an easier task: walking four times in a single game or walking down any street in the area without wiping out on the snow and ice? OK, I'll admit the latter is probably a much easier feat in comparison, but I figured I'd try to at least garner some sympathy for my clumsiness. But I digress ... In this week's #TBT, let's look back at one of the most amazing moments at the plate in 2015. OK, so when you think of a key offensive moment, you probably think of a huge home run or a...

#TBT: Chris Davis gets just enough for milestone homer

#TBT: Chris Davis gets just enough for milestone homer
Earlier today on our Facebook page, we asked fans how many homers they thought Chris Davis would end up hitting over the course of his career. // When it's all said and done, where will Adam Jones and Chris Davis end up on the Baltimore Orioles' all-time home run... Posted by MASN Orioles on Thursday, January 21, 2016 While Davis has a long way to go to catch up to some Oriole greats - including Boog Powell, Eddie Murray and Cal Ripken Jr. - he'll have seven years to move up the...

#TBT: Nats hit four homers, outslug Bronx Bombers

#TBT: Nats hit four homers, outslug Bronx Bombers
If you missed it, MASN's spring training broadcast schedule was announced yesterday, bringing us just one step closer to the return of baseball. Whether it's from Viera, Fla., or from the broadcast booth at Nats Park, we're excited hear Bob Carpenter's "See you later!" call once again in 2016. And on a May night last season, we got to hear Carpenter call not just one home run, but four! Facing the Yankees, Ian Desmond, Bryce Harper and Wilson Ramos had all homered, but the game was tied...

#TBT: Four homers lead Orioles to win over Jays

#TBT: Four homers lead Orioles to win over Jays
If you're anything like me, you love a good pitchers' duel. You know, the games that are knotted up at 0-0 or sit at 1-0 into the late innings. Well, today ... we're not looking back at that. In fact, it's pretty much the opposite. If I'm not watching the low-scoring games I generally prefer, there's nothing that can top huge home runs. Now let's multiply that by four. In an early September game in Toronto, the Orioles teed off four times, scattering home runs all around Rogers...

#TBT: Denard Span makes dazzling snag

#TBT: Denard Span makes dazzling snag
Happy 2016, Nats fans! A new season of Nats baseball will be here before we know it, with pitchers and catchers set to report in just a little more than a month. The Nationals have been busy this offseason, adding players such as Daniel Murphy, who had his introductory press conference today. With additions and with players heading into free agency after the 2015 season, the Nats roster will look much different in 2016. A key subtraction is veteran Denard Span, who just signed a three-year deal...

#TBT: Mike Wright dazzles in "delicious" debut
Happy 2016, Birdland! A new year is upon us, which means we're one step closer to another season of Orioles baseball. Yep, just a little more than a month until pitchers and catchers report! As spring training nears, there is still a lot of speculation surrounding the Orioles rotation and lineup. One question fans and media are asking is how the young arms, including Mike Wright and Tyler Wilson, will impact the team in 2016. While we anticipate many questions being answered spring training,...

#TBT: Trea Turner smacks first major league homer

#TBT: Trea Turner smacks first major league homer
While Nationals fans are anxiously anticipating the time when Trea Turner becomes an everyday major leaguer, they got a taste of Turner in the bigs last season when he was called up in late August. His speed and defensive abilities were immediately showcased when he took the field. But it took a little while before fans saw his pop. On Sept. 29, he tied the game up with a huge home run at Turner Field (appropriate!) Bob Carpenter had the call: "And Turner, he does turn on one. High in the air...

#TBT: O'Day, O'Day!

#TBT: O'Day, O'Day!
Welcome back to our #TBT posts, and welcome back, Darren O'Day! This week, the Orioles held a press conference to announce the re-signing of the veteran reliever. After pitching to a 1.52 ERA in 2015, O'Day agreed to a four-year, $31 million deal with the O's. In welcoming back the sidearmer, we're bringing back one of his signature moments from last season. The Orioles had a 5-2 lead when O'Day came into the game in the eighth inning against the Red Sox. He then went on to record to a...

#TBT: David Lough's walk-off homer gives O's win over Red Sox

#TBT: David Lough's walk-off homer gives O's win over Red Sox
The Orioles had a very busy day Wednesday, from officially announcing they traded for Mark Trumbo and C.J. Riefenhauser to acquiring catcher Francisco Pena from Kansas City to tendering contracts to eight arbitration-eligible players. However, the team did not tender contracts to three arbitration-eligible players: Steve Johnson, Paul Janish and David Lough. All three are now free agents. Reflecting on last season, one of the most exciting moments of the first half was thanks to Lough. The...

#TBT: Tyler Moore takes mound, escapes inning unscathed

#TBT: Tyler Moore takes mound, escapes inning unscathed
The non-tender deadline has come and gone, and seven of eight arbitration-eligible players were tendered contracts. The first to reach an agreement? First baseman/outfielder Tyler Moore. While the 28-year-old saw much of his playing time cut this season, he was part of one of my favorite things in baseball: a position player pitching. As you can probably imagine, I watch a lot of baseball games, which means I see a lot of odd things throughout the course of a season. However, a position player...

#TBT: Giving thanks for no-hitters
Happy Turkey Day, Nats Nation! Or, as I like to call it, Happy Stuffing Day! Beyond all of the food, there are so many different people and things for which I'm grateful, including my family, friends, job and - of course - the wonderful Nats fans who interact with us every day on social media, MASNsports.com and more. I know you may just be a few hours away from digging in, so without further ado, here's our #TBT moment of the week. We know there are few things you're more thankful for this...

#TBT: Orioles thank J.J. Hardy after walk-off
Happy Thanksgiving, Birdland! I hope that your holiday is filled with turkey, mashed potatoes and - if you're like me - literally stuffing yourself with stuffing. I know you've got some pie to get to, so we'll get right to our #TBT moment of the week. It was a late May game, and Miguel Gonzalez was throwing a gem. He allowed just one earned run while striking out six over eight great innings. However, it was just a 1-1 game by the time he exited. In the bottom of the ninth, the Orioles had...

#TBT: Steve Pearce homers off 2015 Cy Young winner Dallas Keuchel

#TBT: Steve Pearce homers off 2015 Cy Young winner Dallas Keuchel
As shown by yesterday's Cy Young awards, Houston's Dallas Keuchel was the most dominant pitcher in the American League this season. The lefty took home the hardware last night after pitching to a 20-8 record and a 2.48 ERA. A perfect 15-0 at home, his eight losses came on the road, and the first one came at the hands of the Baltimore Orioles on Memorial Day. However, the All-Star lefty battled. He pitched a complete game, but took the loss as the Orioles chalked up four earned runs against...

#TBT: NL MVP favorite Bryce Harper hits walk-off homer against Braves

#TBT: NL MVP favorite Bryce Harper hits walk-off homer against Braves
With Bryce Harper the heavy favorite to be named by the Baseball Writers' Association of America as National League Most Valuable Player tonight, here's another reminder of just how remarkable his 2015 season was. He had the third-best batting average in the majors at .330, tied for most homers in the NL with 42 and led the majors in on-base percentage at .460. And that slugging percentage! He dominated the majors by slugging .649 this season. The second-best slugging percentage? Mike Trout,...

#TBT: Dan Uggla propels Nats to win over former team

#TBT: Dan Uggla propels Nats to win over former team
In 2010, Dan Uggla was a Silver Slugger Award recipient with the Florida Marlins. He then spent four seasons with the Braves before coming to the Nationals in 2015. Although not an everyday starter with the Nats, Uggla started at second base against the Braves in a late April game. It was a slugfest from the beginning, including Uggla's two-run triple in the seventh, but the Nationals found themselves trailing 12-10 in the ninth. After Jose Lobaton's single and a Danny Espinosa walk, Uggla...

#TBT: Chris Davis' second homer of game leads to walk-off win
The Silver Slugger Award winners will be announced tonight, so there's no better time to throw back to a player who has a great chance of taking home some hardware: Chris Davis. A Silver Slugger winner in 2013, Crush returned to form in 2015 and finished the season with a major league-leading 47 homers. Two of them came on the night of Aug. 15 against the A's. With the O's trailing Oakland 3-0 in the fourth, Davis stepped up to the plate and smacked a two-run homer. The Orioles added another...

What do you mean there's no more baseball? Another exciting season has come and gone, and while we look ahead to what will likely be a busy offseason for the Orioles, we'll also look back at some of the amazing plays and moments from 2015. Every offseason, we post one of our favorite clips of the previous season each Thursday in our #TBT series. And who better to kick off this year's series than Manny Machado? The third baseman, who turned 23 this season, was the only player in the major...
