Manny Machado and Bud Norris comment after O's win over New York

Manny Machado and Bud Norris comment after O's win over New York
The Orioles have gone from a season-worst six games under .500 to one game over after winning six straight and eight of their last nine games. After tonight's 9-4 win over New York, Manny Machado talked about the chance the Orioles have now to sweep Boston and New York in back-to-back series. "It's good, but we have to keep grinding though," Machado said. "It's a long season ahead of us and this is just a step on the road. We have to keep playing the right way and leave it on the...

Manny Machado, Nolan Reimold combine for six RBIs as O's beat New York
Just minutes after the New York Yankees tied the score tonight in the top of the sixth, the resurgent Orioles offense untied it in the bottom of the inning. And then added onto that lead. Batting first and second, Manny Machado and Nolan Reimold combined to go 5-for-10 with two homers, a triple, three runs and six RBIs as the Orioles beat the Yankees 9-4 in front of 38,909 at Camden Yards. The Orioles won their sixth in a row and won for the eighth time in nine games to improve 31-30 and move...

O's game blog: Orioles look to extend win streak against the Yankees

O's game blog: Orioles look to extend win streak against the Yankees
The Orioles have won six, lost one and tied one in their last eight series against the New York Yankees. They will be able to add another series win to that if they get a victory tonight or tomorrow. New York came to Baltimore with an 11-4 record since May 25 - tied for the best in the majors - but got beat 11-3 last night as the Orioles had 16 hits, went 9-for-19 with runners in scoring position, and Chris Davis homered and drove in four runs. The Orioles offense is finally starting to come...

Adam Jones, MLBPA reps spend time with the kids at James Mosher Little League

Adam Jones, MLBPA reps spend time with the kids at James Mosher Little League
In a joint effort of Orioles outfielder Adam Jones and the Major League Baseball Players Association, several former players joined Jones this morning in West Baltimore at the James Mosher Fields, the home of one of the country's longest continuously operating African-American Little League. After the recent rioting in Baltimore, it was about spending time with the kids and letting them see that some baseball stars care about them. "It was for the community of Baltimore," Jones said this...

A look at a potential fringe benefit of O's current catching situation

A look at a potential fringe benefit of O's current catching situation
With Matt Wieters back on the active roster as of June 5, and catching every other day, both Orioles catchers will now get some extra rest and perhaps their productivity on offense will increase. By having a two-headed catcher situation, the Orioles may see kind of an unintended result here: that both catchers stay fresher as the long season goes on. It could benefit their offense. Caleb Joseph's bat certainly looked like it had some extra life last night as he had a double, solo homer and...

O's say Jimenez created momentum with first-inning escape act against New York

O's say Jimenez created momentum with first-inning escape act against New York
On a night they scored 11 runs on 16 hits and won by eight runs, two Orioles players tonight pointed to the top of the first inning as a key to their 11-3 win over the Yankees. Right-hander Ubaldo Jimenez faced a bases-loaded, no out situation and got out of that without allowing a single run. The O's could have come to bat trailing by three or four runs or worse. "That was huge, especially to start the game off like that and to hang in and battle," Chris Davis said of Jimenez. "You would...

Chris Davis homers with four RBIs as O's rout Pineda, Yankees 11-3

Chris Davis homers with four RBIs as O's rout Pineda, Yankees 11-3
They did not strike out 16 times against Michael Pineda. But they did knock him out the game in the fifth tonight, handing the Yankees right-hander his earliest exit of the season. Pineda allowed nine hits and six runs (five earned) over 4 1/3 innings as the Orioles hammered the Yankees 11-3 at Camden Yards to open a three-game series. Pineda has fanned 27 Orioles and walked just two this year in three starts versus Baltimore, but he has also has an ERA of 5.60 in those games. He has given up...

O's game blog: It's Jimenez against Pineda in New York series opener
After winning four in a row and six of their last seven games, the Orioles have moved from six games under .500 (23-29) to one (29-30).

Chris Davis feels the Orioles need to be "patiently aggressive" against Pineda tonight

Chris Davis feels the Orioles need to be "patiently aggressive" against Pineda tonight
When a reporter asked Chris Davis about facing Yankees right-hander Michael Pineda tonight - a pitcher that struck out 16 Orioles earlier this year - he didn't miss the chance to sneak in a quick quip. "We've got no shot," Davis said with a laugh. "Might as well forfeit right now and go home and save ourselves the embarrassment." Pineda fanned those 16 Orioles over seven innings without a walk May 10 as the Orioles lost 6-2 at New York. Pineda became the first pitcher with a 16-strikeout,...

It looks like the Orioles bullpen is good again

It looks like the Orioles bullpen is good again
Remember that time when the Orioles bullpen was scored on in the first 10 games of the season and had an ERA of 5.30? It actually happened, and there was concern then. Since then, the bullpen has long since gotten its act together, and the 'pen pitchers gave up just one run in the sweep of Boston. After they beat the Red Sox on Tuesday night, Orioles outfielder Adam Jones wanted to talk about the club's pitchers more than several great plays he had made in that game. He noted how the O's...

Kevin Gausman talks about his outing tonight at Bowie

Kevin Gausman talks about his outing tonight at Bowie
BOWIE, Md. - Orioles right-hander Kevin Gausman took another step tonight toward what he hopes will be a return soon to the O's starting rotation, even if the box score didn't look very good for him. Pitching for Double-A Bowie against Binghamton in a rehab start while on the major league DL, Gausman got his work in, threw all his pitches, expanded his pitch count and touched 97 and 98 mph on the generous stadium radar gun. But he also gave up four runs on two homers over 3 1/3 innings and...

Kevin Gausman allows four runs tonight at Bowie (updated)

Kevin Gausman allows four runs tonight at Bowie (updated)
BOWIE, Md. - Wearing a white No. 18 home jersey, Orioles right-hander Kevin Gausman is making his second rehab start tonight, this time for the Double-A Bowie Baysox at home against Binghamton. If he needed a reminder that Double-A hitters can hit well too, he got one after he had retired the first five hitters. Mets first basmen Aderlin Rodriguez turned on a first-pitch fastball and hit it way out to left field for his seventh homer of the year and a 1-0 lead in the second inning. Gausman...

O's game blog: Orioles look for three-game sweep of Boston
The Orioles have been swept in a three-game series this year - by Toronto - but they don't have a three-game sweep to call their own. They can get one tonight at Camden Yards in the finale of a three-game series with Boston, where they have won the first two games by 1-0 and 5-2 scores. The Orioles' last three-game home sweep against Boston took place from Sept. 28-30, 2012. The Orioles are 6-3 this season versus the Red Sox, including 4-1 at home. They've pitched well against Boston with an...

Adam Jones, Travis Snider and Darren O'Day comment after O's win over Boston
Reporters have seen it before: Orioles outfielder Adam Jones just does not provide lengthy answers when describing his own play. So it was tonight when he was asked about a couple of excellent defensive catches he made in the outfield, including the flat-out dive to rob Mookie Betts in the fifth inning of the Orioles' 5-2 win over Boston. Did he think he would make that catch? "Never know until you catch it," he said simply. He had a slightly longer answer - but not by much - when he talked...

Hardy drives in two, O's flash defense, beat Porcello and Boston 5-2
Rick Porcello pitched well against the Orioles - last year. This year, the Orioles have hit him hard three times.

First rehab outing a success, Kevin Gausman now looks to the next one

First rehab outing a success, Kevin Gausman now looks to the next one
For one night, right-hander Kevin Gausman was back in the Carolina League. He made three starts with Single-A Frederick after he was drafted in 2012 and was back on the mound for the Keys last Friday night at Wilmington. It was part of an injury-rehab assignment where Gausman began the process of building innings to get him back into a starting rotation - either in Triple-A Norfolk, Baltimore or both. Gausman has been on the disabled list with right shoulder tendinitis retroactive to May 7. He...
