Cody Sedlock has strong outing in Aberdeen (plus O's notes)

Cody Sedlock has strong outing in Aberdeen (plus O's notes)
ABERDEEN, Md. - Known as a workhorse pitcher as a junior this season at the University of Illinois, Orioles first-round draft pick Cody Sedlock said the three-inning outings he is throwing now for short-season Single-A Aberdeen are taking some getting used to. Before the Orioles selected Sedlock with the 27th-overall pick in June, he averaged over seven innings a start while going 5-3 with an ERA of 2.49 at Illinois. He was the Big 10 Pitcher of the Year. He threw nine innings or more in four...

Orioles shut out in Oakland, have lost three straight to the A's

Orioles shut out in Oakland, have lost three straight to the A's
The Orioles' offensive slump reached a new low on this road trip. They scored two runs on Monday night, one last night and none tonight. They were held to seven hits in a 1-0 loss at Oakland. Oakland left-hander Ross Detwiler had an ERA of 4.40 this year in Triple-A and 5.79 in April pitching out of the Cleveland Indians bullpen. But he made the start tonight and pitched eight scoreless on six hits, throwing 108 pitches. John Axford pitched the ninth for a save. The Orioles' Adam Jones led...

As the offense struggles, Chris Davis is bearing the brunt of the criticism

As the offense struggles, Chris Davis is bearing the brunt of the criticism
Chris Davis' struggles have frustrated and angered Orioles fans, who are lashing out at the first baseman who signed a seven-year deal worth $161 million in January. Right now, and for a while now, Davis is not giving the fanbase a reason to embrace him. He hit a 418-foot homer on Sunday at Chicago, but he is 0-for-9 since that blast. Since the All-Star break, Davis is batting .118 with one homer and three RBIs in 22 games. In that span, he has struck out 32 times in 76 at-bats, has a slugging...

No offense, no win: O's bats quiet again in another loss in Oakland

No offense, no win: O's bats quiet again in another loss in Oakland
For the Orioles, it was yet another night when they didn't get enough offense. Not nearly enough. New Oriole left-hander Wade Miley pitched a strong game. But as with Kevin Gausman last night, the Orioles plated just one run while Miley was out there and Oakland beat the Orioles 2-1. The Orioles were held to three hits, going 3-for-29 at-bat tonight. The Orioles could have gained on Toronto, which lost to Tampa Bay. But failed to do so and fell to 63-49 and remain in a first-place tie atop the...

O's game blog: Comparing the offense before and after the break

O's game blog: Comparing the offense before and after the break
The Orioles' offense has been seemingly all or close to nothing in the four games of their road trip that continues tonight at Oakland. They've scored seven, two, 10 and two runs in going 2-2. The Orioles went 51-36 before the All-Star Game and averaged 5.08 runs per game in the first half. They have gone 12-12 while scoring 3.42 runs per game in the second half. Quite a difference for the offense. Orioles runs per game by month: 4.70 in April 4.07 in May 6.60 in June 3.42 in July 4.57 in...

A look at the inconsistent offense, Aberdeen's All-Stars and more

A look at the inconsistent offense, Aberdeen's All-Stars and more
The Orioles offense has been inconsistent this season and on this road trip. That inconsistency continuted last night as they lost 3-2 at Oakland and are 2-2 on the trip. In the two road wins the Orioles have hit .359 (28-for-78) with seven home runs, 17 runs and a mark of 5-for-12 with runners in scoring position.

O's bats are quiet in series-opening loss at Oakland

O's bats are quiet in series-opening loss at Oakland
On Sunday in Chicago, the Orioles scored 10 runs in the first three innings. Tonight at Oakland, the Orioles produced two over nine innings in a 3-2 loss to the Athletics to begin a four-game series. Right-hander Kevin Gausman has now made 24 consecutive road starts without gaining a win. He gave up just two runs, but the Orioles scored him just one when he was in the game as he fell to 3-9 with an ERA of 4.02. Manny Machado hit another homer tonight. His solo blast in the eighth off Ryan Dull...

O's game blog: Gausman faces Oakland, plus home run notes
After seeing Orioles who were drafted in the first round in Manny Machado (2010) and Dylan Bundy (2011) lead the team to a win Sunday in Chicago, can 2012 first-round pick right-hander Kevin Gausman pitch the Orioles to victory tonight? Gausman (3-8, 4.08 ERA) has recorded five quality starts in his last seven outings, going 3-3 with a 3.61 ERA. He's allowed two earned runs or fewer four times. Take away the outing where he gave up six runs in three innings on July 29 at Toronto and his ERA is...

At 19 games under .500, Triple-A Norfolk is a playoff contender

At 19 games under .500, Triple-A Norfolk is a playoff contender
One year after the Orioles' farm system produced division winners at the Triple-A and Double-A levels and saw Bowie win the Double-A Eastern League championship, the O's could end this season without one playoff team on the farm. As we sometimes say, "if the season ended today" no O's farm teams would qualify but a few still have a shot while others are well out of it with about a month to go in the minor league regular season. First let's look at the strange case of the Triple-A Norfolk...

More on Machado's three-homer game, plus is the offense coming around?

More on Machado's three-homer game, plus is the offense coming around?
There are times when we see something happen at the ballpark that we have never seen before. Yesterday was one of those times. Just twice in the history of the majors - and not for 86 years - has a player hit a homer in each of the first three innings of a game. But the Orioles' Manny Machado did that yesterday in the 10-2 win over the Chicago White Sox. The first and only other time it happened in major league history was by Carl Reynolds of the White Sox on July 2, 1930. Machado is the ninth...

Pearce on his injury, Bundy his outing and other Orioles notes & quotes
CHICAGO - He has been back with the team for less than a week, but Steve Pearce will now likely miss at least a few games after suffering a strained flexor mass in the right elbow. He got a cortisone injection after today's game and is optimistic he won't miss much time. Pearce said the injury first surfaced during his time this year with the Tampa Bay Rays. It re-surfaced in Chicago this weekend. "I felt it last night, and obviously, felt it today on the throw," Pearce said. "I just...

Showalter pregame on Bundy, Trumbo's day off and A-Rod
CHICAGO - Orioles manager Buck Showalter is giving outfielder/designated hitter Mark Trumbo a day off today, at least at the start of this afternoon's game. Trumbo is batting .267 with a league-leading 31 homers and 77 RBIs. He is batting .140 (7-for-50) over his last 13 games. "He hasn't had one (a day off) this year," Showalter said. "I'm trying to get him, CD (Chris Davis), J.J. (Hardy), Adam (Jones) if I can. Trying to give everybody a day on this trip, if I can. I talked to three or...

Brach on his struggles, Showalter on Bundy and other notes

Brach on his struggles, Showalter on Bundy and other notes
CHICAGO - If there is such a thing as a reliever slump, maybe Brad Brach was in one recently and is starting to come out of it. He's been so good for so long this year that when he gives up runs, it stands out. Brach pitched a scoreless seventh inning in Friday night's win in Chicago. But in five games and 4 1/3 innings coming into this series, he had allowed four runs (three earned) on eight hits. He has only been scored on in nine of 49 games on the year and three came in his previous five...

Showalter and other clubhouse quotes after 4-2 loss to Chicago

Showalter and other clubhouse quotes after 4-2 loss to Chicago
CHICAGO - Sure, the Orioles had a replay call overturned tonight and it cost them a run, but once again their offense didn't produce much and that was the bigger issue in a 4-2 loss to the Chicago White Sox. A night after scoring seven runs on 16 hits they were held to six hits by Carlos Rodon and three relievers. The White Sox evened the series at a win each, but with Toronto's loss to Kansas City, the Orioles (62-47) remain in a first-place tie atop the American League East. J.J. Hardy...

Chicago takes early lead on Tillman and the O's (Orioles lose 4-2)
CHICAGO - In search of his 15th win tonight, Orioles right-hander Chris Tillman gave up single runs in the first and third innings as the White Sox took an early lead in Game 2 of this three-game series. White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson smoked a double to lead off the home half of the first inning and then Melky Cabrera, batting second, doubled him in for a 1-0 lead. Tillman stranded Cabrera at second, but needed 25 pitches in the first. After he retired Chicago 1-2-3 on just six pitches in the...

O's game blog: Tillman looks for win No. 15 against Chicago
CHICAGO - With back-to-back road wins - the last game in Toronto and first game in Chicago - the Orioles look for three in a row tonight against the White Sox. They won 7-5 last night as five players had multi-hit games and Pedro Alvarez homered twice. The Orioles had 16 hits - their most since 17 on June 28 at San Diego. Their seven runs was the most since July 29 when they scored 12 at San Diego. The O's pinned a loss on former Oriole Miguel Gonzalez last night as Yovani Gallardo picked up...

Showalter on today's lineup decisions
CHICAGO - He has hit five homers over his last three games, going 7-for-12, and hit two homers last night, but Pedro Alvarez is not in tonight's starting lineup for the Orioles against White Sox left-hander Carlos Rodon. O's manager Buck Showalter is not always fond of lineup questions, but he got one today. Why is Alvarez, who has been so hot, not starting? "Why he has been hot?" Showalter asked. "Because he's facing right-handed pitching. I like having a nice weapon on the bench, too....
