Nationals
BALTIMORE – After a beautiful, unseasonably mild Tuesday evening here, it’s a very seasonable, hot and muggy and wet Wednesday afternoon here as the Nationals and Orioles prepare to wrap up their two-game interleague series. It began raining a short while ago, and the Camden Yards grounds crew rolled out the tarp, canceling batting practice. More i

O's get quality start but no runs in loss to Washington

Orioles
Jordan Lyles delivered a quality start but the Orioles at-bats too often lacked true quality and they were blanked 3-0 by the Washington Nationals. The Orioles were shutout for the fifth time this year as earlier they were blanked by the Rays, Tigers, Yankees and Mariners. Baltimore beat Tampa Bay on Friday with one run on five hits and again won S
Escobar understands new role in return from IL

BALTIMORE – The conversation was had when Alcides Escobar initially landed on the injured list with a right hamstring strain on June 1. Even though the injury wasn’t considered too serious and the shortstop wasn’t expected to miss an extended period of time, manager Davey Martinez told him the plan for whenever he was ready to return. The Nationals
Hays on All-Star balloting and his first priority
Roch Kubatko
Orioles
Austin Hays isn’t tracking the All-Star voting. He didn’t know that the first updates became available yesterday, or that he sat 19th among outfielders in the American League. The shoulders didn’t shrug, but his enthusiasm level was fairly low. Hays would be honored to represent the Orioles at Dodger Stadium. He’s just preoccupied with trying to he
Fedde leads the way as Nats shut out O's (updated)

Nationals
BALTIMORE – Four days ago, the Nationals pitching staff – specifically the rotation – was a mess. A series of unfortunate events left Davey Martinez scrambling to find somebody to start each night, then a bunch of guys to come out of the bullpen after said starter failed to complete even four innings. It was, to put it mildly, an unsustainable situ
Lyles provides length but lackluster offense leads to loss (updated)

Orioles
The stomach bug that knocked down Jordan Lyles Sunday didn’t keep the veteran on his back. Lyles spoke with manager Brandon Hyde the following day, reporting that he felt much better, and showed up this morning ready to pitch. Hyde could have given Lyles a little more recovery time, but he decided it would really benefit Tyler Wells to get an extra

Orioles
After winning just one game all of last year against the Tampa Bay Rays, the Orioles have already won two of three series against the Rays this season. They are 4-5 versus Tampa Bay after Sunday’s win gave them a series victory. The O’s lost the first three games of the year at Tropicana Field but are now 4-2 in the last six versus the Rays. But af
García moves up in order for opener in Baltimore

Nationals
BALTIMORE – As the Nationals start this five-game road trip up I-295 at Camden Yards, they’re hoping their offensive explosion from Sunday carries over to tonight’s game against the Orioles. After averaging just three runs over their previous eight games, the offense jumped all over Phillies pitchers en route to a 9-3 win two days ago to end an 11-
