John Means has best outing since IL return as O's win in Detroit

John Means has best outing since IL return as O's win in Detroit
He didn't put up a zero like Matt Harvey on Friday night, but left-hander John Means looked very much like his pre-injury self tonight. And seeing the Orioles ace pitch like that had to be a most welcome sight throughout Birdland. Means allowed just one run over six innings and picked up his first win since his no-hitter as the Orioles beat Detroit 5-2 at Comerica Park. There was a bit of drama in the ninth, as a comfortable win turned into something less than that. Tanner Scott struggled...

O's game blog: John Means faces Detroit
With five wins their last seven games and a record of 8-5 since the All-Star break, the Orioles head back to Comerica Park tonight for the third of a four-game series with Detroit. The Tigers won 6-2 Thursday night and the Orioles won 4-3 last night. Pedro Severino hit solo homers in the third and fifth innings Friday for an O's team that has hit 16 home runs its last eight games. It was the second multi-home run game of his career in addition to his three-homer game on June 4, 2019 at Texas....

A look at Matt Harvey's amazing turnaround and other notes

A look at Matt Harvey's amazing turnaround and other notes
When a pitcher has an ERA of 11.20 over an 11-start stretch, just getting three or four decent innings from him might seem like a mountain to climb. Right now, Matt Harvey is an exceptional mountain climber. After getting bashed by opponent hitters from May 12 through July 7 - a stretch where he went 0-8 with that unsightly ERA and a 1.035 OPS against, now he is putting up zero after zero. He may have skipped a step in improving and went right from terrible to great. Just what did this guy do...

Matt Harvey good again as the O's beat Detroit (updated)

Matt Harvey good again as the O's beat Detroit (updated)
During the series-opening game last night, the Orioles offense was quiet and missing the longball. But it returned for the Orioles tonight at Comerica Park. And they had a rejuvenated Matt Harvey back on the mound also. Harvey posted a third straight stellar outing as the Orioles beat Detroit 4-3 to even the four-game series at one win each. The Orioles (36-66) have won five of their past seven and are 8-5 since the All-Star break. Harvey's scoreless streak to begin the second half grew to 18...

O's game blog: Matt Harvey faces the Tigers
The Orioles lost the series opener at Detroit Thursday night and the clubs continue the four-game series tonight at Comerica Park. Miguel Cabrera hit career homers No. 496 and No. 497 last night as the Tigers won 6-2. Right-hander Casey Mize allowed four hits and one unearned run over seven innings as Tigers pitching held the Orioles to four hits on a night they went 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position. The Orioles (35-66) are 4-2 the last six games and 7-5 since the All-Star break. They...

The offense was slowed as the road trip began

The offense was slowed as the road trip began
They scored eight runs and produced a walk-off win on Wednesday night at home. But as a seven-game road trip began last night, the Baltimore offense was held in check as Detroit beat the Orioles 6-2. The Birds were held to four hits in 29 at-bats, had just one extra-base hit, no RBIs and went 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position. Detroit right-hander Casey Mize, the player taken No. 1 overall in the 2018 draft, shut down the Baltimore batters allowing just one unearned run over seven...

O's game blog: Road trip begins in Detroit
As the Orioles begin a two-city, seven-game road trip tonight, left-hander Alexander Wells (1-0, 4.35 ERA) will make his fourth major league appearance and his second start. The 24-year-old Wells faces Detroit in the opener of a three-game series. Wells is pitching on seven days rest after getting his first start last Wednesday on the road against Tampa Bay. He pitched 5 2/3 innings, allowing five hits and three runs with two walks and seven strikeouts on 93 pitches. He used his fastball for 47...

Ryan McKenna looks to make the most of his MLB opportunity

Ryan McKenna looks to make the most of his MLB opportunity
For 24-year-old outfielder Ryan McKenna, it has been a season spent riding the Norfolk-Baltimore shuttle and trying to learn and grow as a player wherever he is on a given night. He's now had six separate stints in the big leagues this year, and if Anthony Santander returns to the active roster soon, he could be on the move again. But for however long he's with the big club in this current stay, he'll try to soak up knowledge and experience. "You know, just gathering as much information and...

O's game blog: Looking for a return to the win column
After a three-game win streak was snapped last night, the Orioles will try to start another one tonight in the finale of a two-game series and five-game homestand. The Miami Marlins (44-57) had lost six of nine and 10 of 15 games coming into Tuesday's series opener, but they hit three homers in beating the Orioles 7-3 at Oriole Park. Catcher Sandy Leon's three-run homer in the second inning became the 110th to land on Eutaw Street - the 60th by an opponent - and gave Miami the early 3-0...

Notes on O's loss, final draft pick signed and farm player movement

Notes on O's loss, final draft pick signed and farm player movement
The Orioles will be back at Camden Yards tonight against Miami looking to beat the Marlins for a two-game series split and a winning 4-1 homestand. Miami hit three homers in last night's 7-3 win over the Orioles. O's right-hander Spenser Watkins gave up a three-run homer to catcher Sandy Leon on the eighth pitch of a sequence in the top of the second. That put Miami up 3-0 and they were never tied or trailed after that. Austin Hays and Cedric Mullins hit solo homers for the Orioles. They've...

O's game blog: Spenser Watkins faces Marlins in series opener
The Orioles have won two of three series since the All-Star break, going 6-3 in those games. And we know they were an out away - a strike away, really - from that being three of three with a 7-2 record. So they have some momentum going as they host the Miami Marlins tonight to open a two-game series to conclude a five-game homestand. The Orioles swept the Washington Nationals by scores of 6-1, 5-3 and 5-4. They scored twice in the last of the ninth Sunday to record the walk-off win. It was the...

They lost big talent, but Delmarva continues on with strong season

They lost big talent, but Delmarva continues on with strong season
The Orioles' low Single-A Delmarva affiliate got off to a great start this year. With players like Gunnar Henderson, Jordan Westburg and JD Mundy bashing baseballs, the Shorebirds won 15 of their first 20 games and were 19-6 on June 2. During a season where Delmarva has dealt with an ever-changing roster and now used 50 players, the moves started happening even before the first month was out. Westburg and Mundy played just 20 games for the Shorebirds and Henderson played in 35 games before...

Ryan McKenna's impact on a win, plus getting the draft picks going

Ryan McKenna's impact on a win, plus getting the draft picks going
He flashed some power, some speed and he flashed some defense in the outfield. He can fly on the bases. Cedric Mullins, right? Well, yes, but this time we are talking about his teammate, Ryan McKenna, who made a major impact on the Orioles' 5-4 walk-off win over the Washington Nationals on Sunday afternoon. McKenna scampered home from third base with the winning run in the last of the ninth and who else would you have wanted 90 feet away from winning the game than the fastest player on the...

A walk-off win produces a sweep against the Nationals

A walk-off win produces a sweep against the Nationals
Down 4-3 heading to the last of the ninth today and 0-51 this year when trailing after eight innings, the Orioles scored two runs in the ninth today to stun the Washington Nationals 5-4 and complete a three-game sweep at Camden Yards. Nats closer Brad Hand hit Maikel Franco on an 0-2 pitch to start the rally. Then Ryan McKenna singled, sending Franco to third base, and pinch-hitter Austin Hays walked to load the bases. A Pat Valaika sac fly to right scored the tie run and McKenna tagged, going...

O's game blog: Looking for a sweep at Camden Yards
The Orioles have a pair of three-game sweeps this year and they have come against clubs that are currently in first place, and both came on the road. They swept Boston in a season-opening series at Fenway Park in April and they swept three from Houston in late June. Today, after wins by 6-1 and 5-3 the last two nights, they can sweep the Washington Nationals at Oriole Park. Last night the Orioles (33-64) moved out to a 5-0 lead and held off the Nats late for the win. Trey Mancini (No. 17) and...

Matt Harvey was rolling again and now O's can sweep the Nats
Nice crowd, nice starting pitching, a few timely homers and a nice top of the ninth with no drama. That was all quite ... nice. The Orioles have won the first two games of their series with the Washington Nationals and go for a sweep behind John Means this afternoon. They are 5-3 with two series wins in three tries since the All-Star break. Maybe the few days away during the break was good for both right-hander Matt Harvey and several of his teammates. Pitching on 10 days' rest last Sunday at...

O's game blog: Looking for a series win against Washington
The Orioles will not face three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer tonight, but rather lefty Jon Lester as they host the Washington Nationals in the second of a three-game series. The Orioles won 6-1 last night as five pitchers combined to hold the Nats to five hits with 11 strikeouts and the visitors went 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position. Washington (45-51) began this series eighth in the majors in team OPS and batting, fourth in OBP and 10th in slugging. But the Nationals, who...

O's 'pen puts up a zero for the night and other notes

O's 'pen puts up a zero for the night and other notes
Orioles right-hander Jorge López was throwing a decent game. He had allowed just one run over 4 2/3 innings but the hook came with two outs in the top of the fifth and the Orioles leading 2-1 over the Washington Nationals. Manager Brandon Hyde saw hot-hitting Juan Soto - a batter who had 12 hits in his last 24 at-bats - coming to the plate. And he went for a fifth-inning left-on-left matchup, bringing in Paul Fry. On one pitch, a 92 mph four-seam fastball, Fry got Soto to ground out to first...

The Orioles play at home for the first time since the All-Star break tonight when they host the Washington Nationals to start a three-game series. It begins a five-game homestand, with Miami coming to town on Tuesday night. The O's last home game was July 11, when the Chicago White Sox completed a three-game sweep in Baltimore. The Orioles (31-64) went 3-3 on their road trip to Kansas City and St. Petersburg. They won two of three versus the Royals and lost two of three to the Tampa Bay Rays....

The Orioles' top two draft picks are at Camden Yards today. They've already been officially signed and have already spent a few days working out in Sarasota, Fla. And this afternoon, outfielder Colton Cowser, the No. 5 overall pick in round one from Sam Houston State, and infielder Connor Norby, taken No. 41 overall in round two from East Carolina, were presented jerseys in a brief on-field ceremony with O's executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias.
