Manny Machado on returning to Orioles lineup tonight

Manny Machado on returning to Orioles lineup tonight
CHICAGO - Orioles third baseman Manny Machado returns to the lineup tonight for the first time since Wednesday, when he got inadvertantly spiked by Pittsburgh's Andrew McCutchen. He missed the next four games. But his strained left wrist and sore hand made progress each day and he passed the final test here this afternoon when he took early batting practice and fielded grounders. It went well. "Good. Ready to play and go out there and help my team do whatever we can to get back on the right...

O's game blog: O's trying to avoid a sweep in the Bronx (O's lose 14-3)

Bashed in the Bronx: Can O's regroup in series finale?

Bashed in the Bronx: Can O's regroup in series finale?
It was Wednesday night when the Orioles pulled off a second straight rally in the ninth inning against Pittsburgh that led to a second straight extra innings win. Trey Mancini homered in the ninth to tie it and in the 11th to win. It was pretty special stuff. Since then the Orioles have lost three in a row and been outscored 30-6. The Yankees have hit eight homers the past two nights. The Yankees are averaging 10.8 runs per game at Yankee Stadium against Baltimore pitching in going 4-1 this...

O's game blog: Tillman faces Severino (O's crushed 16-3)
As they have fallen 4 1/2 games out in the American League East to tie a season high, the Orioles (31-28) play the Yankees tonight for the second game of three this weekend in the Bronx. New York is 35-23 and leading Boston by three games for first place. New York is 20-9 at home, 5-3 in June and 14-14 since moving a season-best 12 games over .500 at 21-9 on May 8.

More concerns emerge as O's lose opener at New York

More concerns emerge as O's lose opener at New York
So much for the feel-good vibe that surrounded the Orioles on Wednesday night after Trey Mancini's heroics against the Pittsburgh Pirates. They went back on the road and the losing resumed. They've scored three runs in two games at Washington and New York. Their bullpen collapsed late in the game last night. Doom and gloom returned to Birdland. The bigger concern is that a stretch of 12 losses in 18 games has the Orioles currently looking nothing like the team that was 22-10 on May 9. A...

O's game blog: Bundy on mound in series opener (O's lose 8-2)
Will the Orioles get at least one hit tonight with a runner in scoring position? If they do it will be the first hit with RISP that New York Yankees pitching has given up this month. Over the seven games in June, Yankee opponents are 0-for-35 with RISP. According to Elias Sports, opponents are 0-for-their-last-36 overall with RISP dating back to May 31 at Baltimore. That is the team's longest streak of hitless at-bats with RISP in the Expansion Era (since 1961) and the majors' longest streak...

Once again, it's the Orioles and Nationals. This time for one night only at Nationals Park, as the clubs make up the rainout in Washington from May 11. The clubs were scheduled for a four-game, home-and-home series. The Orioles won the first two games in Baltimore, 6-4 and 5-4. The Nats rallied late to win the first in Washington 7-6. The Orioles lost that game and went on to go 3-13 over a 16-game stretch through May 28. But starting May 29, they began a nine-game homestand that ended with...

Trey Mancini: "This is a pretty special night for sure"

Trey Mancini: "This is a pretty special night for sure"
The Orioles' Trey Mancini had gone 21 games without a homer. Then tonight he hit one in the ninth inning to tie the game, and again in the 11th to win it. It was a remarkable performance by a player who didn't even start the game, and by a team that trailed 6-1 in the eighth. The Orioles trailed 5-3 in the ninth and won in extras last night and trailed 6-2 in the ninth tonight and won in extras. So, some Oriole magic was seen at the Yard. They beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 9-6 in 11 innings to...

Trey Mancini hits game-tying and game-winning homers
If Trey Mancini's first homer was pretty special tonight, his second was even better. Mancini's Oriole legend grew tonight as he hit a two-run homer in the ninth to tie the game and then a three-run homer in the 11th to win it. You had to see it to believe it. The Orioles beat the Pirates 9-6 in 11 innings. With the game tied 6-6 in the 11th, Joey Rickard singled and then, with two outs, Caleb Joseph walked. Mancini hit the first pitch from Wade LeBlanc out to left for his second homer in...

Walk-off win: Mark Trumbo's single wins it in the 10th

Jones came up with a one-out single in the 10th for his third hit. He then alertly tagged up and advanced to second when Manny Machado flew out to the left field wall. Trumbo then...
