Game Preview Orioles (35-43) at LA Angels (42-34) After an amazing two game stretch that saw the O's come from nine runs down to win one night, then blow a four-run lead in the 9th to lose the next day, the Orioles begin a two-city, West Coast trip tonight. The ...



Let me start by saying I could not respect Dave Trembley more. I respect his service time in the Minors, how he deals with the media, the fans and his players. This is not a fire Dave Trembley article. Any talk about firing the skipper at this point is crazy ...



The Orioles are now 29-2 on the year when leading after eight innings. On April 24th vs. Texas, the O's led 4-3 after eight innings but gave up two in the ninth to lose 5-4. Today they gave up four in the 9th to tie it and lost 6-5 in ...



Some comments from the O's after today's 6-5 loss to Boston: Brad Bergesen - did you have enough left to pitch the ninth? "I don't know about that, I mean, I would always like to go back out there and if I did I was going to battle. But, you ...



This time, Boston pulled off the stunning rally. Down to their last out, the Sox tied the game in the 9th and won it 6-5 in 11 innings over the Orioles, in front of 29,391 on Wednesday afternoon. Dave Trembley talks about the Orioles extra-inning loss to the Red Sox ...




Notable

Some notes from today's game: *For a while it seemed like Luke Scott hit one homer per night. Today's solo homer by Scott in the 2nd was his 15th of the year. He had gone 14 games without a homer. He now has 10 homers in his last 28 games. ...

RHP Brad Bergesen (5-2, 3.76) today makes his 14th start of the season, his 9th at home and the 1st of his career vs. Boston. Bergesen has allowed 2ER or less in five of his last six starts and the Orioles are 5-1 in those games. Friday, Bergesen got the ...



Adam Jones said "yes" when asked if he could play today. Dave Trembley said he would not start Jones today because he is still sore. But Jones said "nothing" when asked today what is hurting. "If it was up to me, I'd be playing," Jones said. Jones banged his head ...



With Koji Uehara now out for about the next two months, it appears that 24-year-old right hander David Hernandez will now get a long look in the Orioles' rotation. In the clubhouse, about 90 minutes before today's game, Hernandez had not yet heard the news about Koji and how it ...



Game Preview Boston (47-30) at Orioles (35-42) The Orioles pulled off the greatest comeback in team history Tuesday night in an 11-10 win over Boston. Today the clubs play the third and deciding game of this series at 1:35 p.m. Brad Bergesen (5-2, 3.76) is on the mound for Baltimore ...

Some comments from the O's clubhouse after the O's stunned the Red Sox, 11-10 Tuesday night. George Sherrill on getting the last out: "I said 'Thank God it's over. You know one-run saves are tough. It shows you what kind of guys we have in here. You defintely don't want ...



Tonight, the Orioles pulled off the greatest comeback in team history. Trailing 10-1 going to the last of the 7th, the Orioles scored five runs in the 7th and 8th innings to stun the first-place Red Sox, 11-10. The comeback was completed when Nick Markakis ripped a two-run double to ...




In a pinch

While we are in rain delay mode feel free to write in any questions you might have about the O's or the O's minors. I'll do my best to answer each one. By the way, if this game never gets resumed, tonight is wiped out and the Sox would lose ...



Rich Hill, a native of Boston, made his first ever start vs. the Red Sox tonight. It did not go well. Hill's line: 3 1/3IP, 9H, 9R, 7ER, 3B, 3K, 2 HR........95 pitches, 56 strikes. The Sox went 9 for 20 at bat vs. Hill tonight with five extra base ...




A bad start

So besides the Sox leading 4-0, Adam Jones leaving the game injured and Boston running amok on the bases, how are you enjoying things so far? Jones left the game for precautionary reasons, they just announced in the press box and say he is day to day. He hit that ...

LHP Rich Hill (3-2, 6.03) tonight will make his 9th start of the year, his 3rd at home and the first of his career vs. the Boston Red Sox. Hill, who is a Boston native, has certainly had an up and down year for the Orioles. He had a start ...



Dustin Pedroia is the reigning American League Most Valuable Player. He seems to always play well vs. the Orioles, but he is not sure why his team seems to always play so well vs. the Birds. Coming into tonight's game, Boston has won eight in a row and 12 of ...



They went to the same college. They are both catchers and both are switch hitters. O's catcher Matt Wieters has been compared to Boston's Jason Varitek since the day he walked on to the Georgia Tech campus, where Varitek once put up amazing numbers. Varitek was a three-time All-American at ...



Game Preview Boston (47-29) at Orioles (34-42) After getting shutdown by nemesis Jon Lester Monday night, tonight the O's face future Hall of Famer John Smoltz in game two of their three game series vs. first-place Boston. The clubs meet at Camden Yards at 7:05 p.m. with Rich Hill (3-2, ...



I've never met John Smoltz, the 42-year-old right hander who will pitch tonight at Camden Yards vs. the Orioles. Yet, I like and respect him. After hearing him in dozens of interviews over many years, Smoltz sure seems like someone that is respectful - of the game, of the media, ...



Jon Lester beat the Orioles once again. He gave up just five hits, all singles, in seven innings. Only one Oriole reached second base against him during his dominant, 108-pitch outing. ...




Post-game O's quotes

Some comments from the O's locker room after the 4-0 loss to Boston. Jason Berken on his outing: "Every inning there were runners on base. Pitching to a lineup like the Red Sox, it is tough pitching that much with runners in scoring position. I left that pitch up to ...



Red Sox lefty Jon Lester shut down the Orioles once again as Boston beat the Birds 4-0 Monday night, in front of 36,548 at Camden Yards. Lester gave up just five singles over seven scoreless innings. He fanned eight without a walk in throwing 108 pitches, 70 for strikes. Only ...



Aubrey Huff hit for the cycle, joining Cal Ripken (1984) and Brooks Robinson (1960) as the only O's players to ever hit for the cycle. Huff is the only Oriole to ever do it at home. Huff got it done on June 29, 2007 vs. the L.A. Angels. Here is ...




Too tough to hit?

| | Comments (0)

So Jon Lester is 7-0, 2.45 in nine career starts vs. the Orioles. The Sox are 8-1 in those games. They bat just .254 agasint him. That doesn't mean he'll dominate the O's lineup every time he faces them, does it? He's at it again tonight, with a 4-0 lead ...



RHP Jason Berken (1-4, 6.32) tonight makes his 7th Major League start of this season, his 5th at home and the 1st of his career vs. Boston. Berken gave up 17ER over a three-start stretch until pitching better in his last outing. He took the loss last Wednesday at Florida, ...

I asked the question on the O's post-game radio show on Sunday. I asked analyst Dave Johnson "what's it going to take for the Orioles to play with the Red Sox?" Dave made an interesting point. He said the Red Sox aren't facing the same team tonight that they swept ...



Winning pitcher John Lannan took a 5-1 lead and four-hitter to the last of the 8th. He left with two men on and one out, both runners would score. He pitched 7 1/3 innings today, allowing six hits and three runs, throwing 102 pitches. Lannan improves to 5-5, 3.45. Over ...



The Orioles scored 17 runs in winning the first two games of this series. But John Lannan shut down the Birds' offense Sunday afternoon as the Nationals beat the Orioles 5-3 to avoid the sweep. The O's were looking for their third three-game sweep of the season. Lannan gave up ...




Missed Chances

| | Comments (3)

The O's trail the Nats 2-1 today through four innings. Their leadoff batter has gotten on each inning vs. John Lannan, three times on walks. That batter has scored just once. In the second, the O's had runners on the corners with one out when Matt Wieters hit a one ...



RHP David Hernandez (1-1, 3.95) today will make his 3rd Major League start of this season and his first-ever vs. the Nationals.

Nolan Reimold, batting fifth for just the second time, hit a three-run, go ahead homer in the last of the 5th tonight as the Orioles beat the Nationals, 6-3, in front of 39,633 at Camden Yards. The O's have taken the first two in this series and lead the season ...



There is no doubt in Dave Trembley's mind that Nolan Reimold, O's rookie left fielder, is now ready to bat fifth in the O's order. Trembley said today he probably could have moved Reimold there a month ago. But he was waiting on a veteran, one who drove in 104 ...



RHP Jeremy Guthrie (5-7, 5.09) tonight makes his 16th start of this season, his 10th at home and the 5th of his career vs. Washington. Guthrie is coming off one of his best starts of the year when he got the win Sunday in Philadelphia. In seven innings he gave ...
