With latest blast, García continues breakthrough season

Upon returning to the dugout following his three-run homer Wednesday night, Luis García Jr. approached his manager with a wide smile. “Before the at-bat, he had mentioned to me to look for a ball up,” García said, via interpreter Octavio Martinez. “And the pitch that I hit out was actually up. So I came back and told him: ‘It was right where you sa

For O's recently, a hot streak and consistent clean play never seems to come

The Orioles keep looking to get on a hot streak, playing solid and clean baseball. Given a chance to do that Wednesday afternoon, win a series and bring some momentum back to Camden Yards, they failed to.  It was a brutal series loss at Citi Field with two walk-off losses, both with Seranthony Domínguez on the mound. Just when it looked like h

Orioles return home hounded by questions regarding rotation, bullpen and bats

NEW YORK – Players changed into their home white uniforms last week at Camden Yards and filed out of the clubhouse and onto the outfield grass for the annual team photo. Closer Félix Bautista was there despite the elbow surgery that cost him the entire season. Danny Coulombe joked with Jordan Westburg, wondering if they’d be asked to leave.   An ag

Parker bounces back, leads Nats to easy win over Rockies (updated)

Mitchell Parker has endured through three disastrous starts in the last five weeks, once failing to get out of the first inning, once failing to get out of the third inning and most recently getting torched by the Phillies for nine runs. Those outings could’ve completely spoiled the left-hander’s rookie season, left him spiraling out of control or

When the Nationals traded Hunter Harvey to the Royals, there was concern about replacing such an important member of the bullpen. When they traded Dylan Floro to the Diamondbacks, the challenge of getting the ball to closer Kyle Finnegan became even more daunting. And when Derek Law landed on the injured list, the situation looked downright bleak.

NEW YORK – What to do with the rotation is a major issue for the Orioles that yielded for a spell this afternoon to a slightly bigger concern. Would they get a hit? Would they put a runner on base? Mets starter Sean Manaea retired the first 17 batters before nailing Jackson Holliday with a 94.7 mph fastball. Manaea tried a first-pitch sinker to Aus

The Nationals have scored 14 runs over their last six games. It will not surprise you to learn they’ve gone 1-5 in those games. Scoring runs is good. Not scoring runs is bad. It would really help their chances tonight if they could score some runs. The Nats will be facing a Rockies starter who has made only six big league appearances before, four o

The Orioles have gone four straight series against National League opponents without winning one, but that could end today as they play the New York Mets at Citi Field.

NEW YORK – The Orioles selected the contract of left-hander Cole Irvin’s from Triple-A Norfolk so that he can start today’s game against the Mets, his first appearance in the majors since Game 2 of a June 29 doubleheader. His last start was June 30. Irvin is 6-5 with a 4.85 ERA and 1.405 WHIP in 21 games (14 starts). He made two starts with Norfolk

On the day the Orioles lost another starter to the injured list and their total pitchers on the IL grew to eight, they scored nine runs. That was important as the Mets rallied late, but the Orioles won 9-5 and with the news that right-hander Zach Eflin joined a few others on that IL, more big nights from the Baltimore offense would be very welcomed

Watching the Nationals slog their way through Tuesday night’s 3-1 loss to the Rockies, and contemplating a lineup that has been held to a grand total of 14 runs over its last six games (five of them losses), it was hard not to look forward and ask the question surely on everyone’s minds right now. When is the rest of the calvary coming? The Nats ha
