When it came time for the traditional ritual Tuesday night at Nationals Park, both team’s skippers absolutely made sure they were the ones making their wa

BOSTON – The Orioles didn’t bring their smoke machines and disco lights to Fenway Park. The ballpark is so old, the equipment might have blown out the fuses or started a fire. But you could hear players through the walls celebrating after Monday night’s win. Voices were loud. Veteran pitcher Trevor Rogers made a speech praising 21-year-old rookie c

BOSTON – One of their best hitters limped to his locker this afternoon and back to the trainers’ room, leaving behind a walking boot for his injured right ankle.

This time around, there should be considerably more at-bats for the 26-year-old first baseman/designated hitter, who was recalled from Triple-A Rochester in a roster

BOSTON – Adley Rutschman was scratched from tonight’s Orioles lineup with right abdominal discomfort. Rutschman didn’t play last night, with Samuel Basallo making his first start behind the plate.

The Orioles have made the following roster move: OF Jordyn Adams has cleared outright waivers and accepted an assignment to Triple-A Norfolk. The Orioles’ 40-man roster currently has 39 players.
