Bowie notes: Good news on Hays, Mountcastle raking and more

Bowie notes: Good news on Hays, Mountcastle raking and more
Bowie, MD. - The Orioles got some good news today on Double-A outfielder Austin Hays. He has been out since May 24 with an ankle bone bruise and tendinitis and has been in a walking boot. But he is expected to get that boot off in a week and then slowly begin some light baseball activities. Hays was the Orioles 2017 minor league Player of the Year and a finalist for Baseball America's national Player of the Year. But he injured his shoulder in spring training and then got off to a slow start...

Balk angers O's, but the walks beat them, plus other notes

Balk angers O's, but the walks beat them, plus other notes
In their latest loss last night, this one against Seattle, Orioles pitchers gave up just seven hits, but they walked 10 batters. That tied for the most in a game this year and it was a significant factor in a 5-3 loss to the Mariners. The Orioles seemed to have plenty of reasons to be angry at home plate umpire Stu Scheurwater for his balk call on Darren O'Day in the ninth last night. It led to ejections for O'Day and manager Buck Showalter. But all those walks and producing just four hits on...

O's walk 10 and lose homestand opener to Seattle (with quotes)

O's walk 10 and lose homestand opener to Seattle (with quotes)
Orioles pitchers tonight issued 10 walks. At times, they came in bunches and that was pretty costly. Baltimore walks led to four runs as the Seattle Mariners beat the Orioles 5-3 in front of 21,202 at Oriole Park. It was the opener of a four-game series and seven-game homestand. The Orioles, now 4-4 in their last eight games, are 23-54 for the year and have lost 13 of 17 and 22 of their last 30. The Orioles are 1-12 in their last 13 home games. Seattle, winning for the second time in eight...

Chris Davis on playing again at home, Tim Beckham on return to team

Chris Davis on playing again at home, Tim Beckham on return to team
For the first time in two weeks, first baseman Chris Davis will play in front of the home fans at Camden Yards tonight when the Orioles host Seattle. After missing eight games to get a mental break and work on his swing, Davis returned over the weekend and had five RBIs in wins Friday and Saturday over the Atlanta Braves. He's got a lot of catching up to do with his bat, but he had just 15 RBIs all year before the Atlanta series with six in April and nine in May. "I think it was just that -...

Hess struggles, Davis returns and other notes

Hess struggles, Davis returns and other notes
No doubt Orioles right-hander David Hess has hit a rough patch. He gave up seven hits and five runs in Sunday's loss at Atlanta. Over his past three starts against Boston, Washington and the Braves, he has allowed 15 runs and 17 hits over 12 innings for an 11.25 ERA. Manager Buck Showalter said: "You look at the strikes thrown in the outing, it's OK, but he's wild in the strike zone. You look at where he's trying to go. He's a pretty straight-fastball guy, which really makes him need to...

Young shortstop Adam Hall gets pro career going at Aberdeen

Young shortstop Adam Hall gets pro career going at Aberdeen
When the Orioles drafted Canadian prep shortstop Adam Hall in the second round in 2017, it wasn't long before he signed and began to play in the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League. He began his pro career going 6-for-9 in his first two games with a double, triple, four runs scored, a stolen base and two RBIs. Hard to get off to a much better start for the right-handed hitter from A.B. Lucas Secondary School in London, Ontario. But then Hall suffered an oblique strain that ended his 2017 season...

O's get marathon win, plus a look at the night on the farm
It was long and it was wild, and for the Orioles , Friday's marathon game that ended this morning ended up with a victory.

Chris Davis returned to the lineup and after he walked his first time up, he homered in his second plate appearance.

O's momentum quieted after Rasmus' throw (plus other notes)

O's momentum quieted after Rasmus' throw (plus other notes)
WASHINGTON - It was the kind of defensive play we have not seen from the Orioles much this year and one that was big in last night's game. But it didn't serve to provide the momentum to lead to a win, it just delayed the winning runs scoring until an inning later. The Nationals' sensational rookie, Juan Soto delivered, a two-run double off Mychal Givens in the eighth last night to break a 2-2 tie as Washington beat the Orioles 4-2 at Nats Park. The O's lost two of three in the series. But...

WASHINGTON - Right-hander Kevin Gausman recorded a quality start and the Orioles became the first team this year to hit more than one homer in a game off three-time Cy Young Winner Max Scherzer. But that didn't get them a win tonight at Nationals Park. The Nats' 19-year-old rookie sensation Juan Soto delivered his latest big hit. This was a two-run double to left center in the eighth as the Nats broke a 2-2 tie and beat the Orioles 4-2 in front of 36,868. The Orioles fall to 21-52 and went...

Chris Tillman's night in Aberdeen, and other notes
Aberdeen, MD. - Before last night's Orioles game in Washington, manager Buck Showalter was asked about right-hander Chris Tillman. At the moment of Showalter's pregame interview at Nationals Park, Tillman was less than two hours away from pitching for short-season Single-A Aberdeen at Ripken Stadium to begin an injury-rehab assignment. "I want to see him get people out and pitch well," Showalter said of Tillman, who last pitched for the Orioles on May 10. "Really, that sounds simple, but I...

Chris Tillman allows three runs over two innings at Aberdeen (with quotes)
Aberdeen, MD. - Pitching in a game for the first time in nearly six weeks, Orioles right-hander Chris Tillman allowed three runs in two innings pitching tonight for short-season Single-A Aberdeen against the Tri-City ValleyCats, a Houston Astros affiliate. To say the least, the game did not start well for the right-hander, who walked the leadoff batter on five pitches and gave up a ground single to right to 2018 first-round draft pick Seth Beer. With No. 3 hitter Emmanual Valdez batting, a...

O's game blog: Andrew Cashner faces the Nationals
The Orioles and Washington Nationals have played every year since 2006, and that is 12 season series through 2017. The Orioles have won more games head-to-head seven times, the clubs tied four times and the Nationals won the season series just one time, in 2007. That is until this year. The Nationals are 4-0 against the Orioles with two games to go in the season series. So they have their second season series win over Baltimore after last night's 9-7 win in Washington.
