Being the road team has its privileges for the Nationals. In the 2019 World Series, the Nats lost every game at home and won every game at Minute Maid Park. Of course, maybe it's all in your mindset, because the Nats broke their three-game losing streak at home in the Blue Jays' "home opener" Wednesday night, 4-0 in 10 innings. Or maybe it was the navy blue jerseys with the cursive "Nationals" across the front with gray pants. The Nats wore that uniform combination when they won eight...

Mel Antonen
Orioles
As baseball tries to settle down and reschedule games lost to the Marlins' coronavirus outbreak, the shortened season has been hit with a debate over the Astros' sign-stealing shenanigans from the 2017 season: Major League Baseball suspended Dodgers relief pitcher Joe Kelly for eight games - 13 percent of the season - for throwing at the Astros' Alex Bregman and taunting Carlos Correa Tuesday night in a 5-2 victory in Houston. Was it a fair punishment? The Astros beat the Dodgers in the...

Nationals
There were several moments late in Wednesday night's game at Nationals Park that seemed to be screaming for Howie Kendrick to grab a bat and step to the plate. The veteran infielder was scratched from the Nationals' original lineup against the Blue Jays due to upper back stiffness, but in announcing that change several hours before game time the club also stated he would be available to pinch-hit. Kendrick, though, never was seen in the dugout during the game. And despite situations that...
For one night anyway, O's-Yankees looked a lot like 2019

Orioles
The first Orioles-Yankees game of 2020 looked like so many others from last summer. The Yankees bashed three home runs and they won by a comfortable margin. The O's lost their home opener 9-3 at Oriole Park. DJ LeMahieu homered on the second pitch of the night and New York added two more homers in the third. Aaron Judge hit a solo shot and Aaron Hicks a two-run homer. On its way to going 10-0 in Baltimore in 2019, the Yankees hit 43 homers. They hit two or more in every game at Camden Yards...
