Eaton Struggles Again; O's Lose 6-4

Adam Eaton has not instilled much confidence in me as a pitcher, and he continued that trend on Saturday night. He only lasted four innings, and gave up six runs as Baltimore lost to Boston again, 6-4. This is their third straight loss, in which the starting pitching has suffered...

The Youngsters Come Through

Mlb_may_31_e773
I attended last night’s game, and when I arrived to the park in the opening inning, things looked bad for Baltimore. They were already down 4-0 to a Tampa team trying to find its way back after an 11-game skid. Jason Berken – who started the game for Baltimore – gave up two singles...

Mew_york_yankees_75eb
Jim Johnson has been suitable in relief this season; however, his 2009 campaign is lacking some of the brilliance from last season, and once again – last night – he served up a homer in a relief outing. This time around, it made the difference in a razor thin ballgame. Baltimore...

Back in the saddle

Mlb_may_30_bc9a
This is my second game back in the press box after a 10-week absense and I'm starting to realize how much important media interaction I've missed since tearing my right Achillies tendon and undergoing surgery to reattach it. Tonight, the big issue in the early innings...

Langerhans’s hans not quite lang enough

Picimg_mlb_mar_03_f8e9
The only thing that’s made Baltimore watch-able this season has been their offense and their clutchiness with men in scoring position. But no one had to worry about that Monday, as Nick Markakis managed the Orioles’ only hit, an opposite field dink that landed about three...

Reimold's Walk-Off Homer Leads O's Over Jays in 11th; Baltimore Gets Three Game Sweep

What a day. Nolan Reimold, who is still pretty much wet behind the ears in terms of his major league tenure, came through again today as he hit a game-winning home run (a three run shot) off Brian Wolfe in the 11th inning as Baltimore won on Thursday, 12-10, sweeping the three game...

Bad. But not fatal.

Tough loss? Yeah, you could say that. I’ll let Tobin fill you in on the details, but let’s just say Baltimore blew a 7-0 lead Friday night at Fenway. Brad Penny stunk for Boston. And the Orioles’ Jeremy Guthrie stunk right back. First baseman Aubrey Huff choked...

Sports Illustrated and the Orioles...

I was some optimistic that the Orioles in 2008 -- at least until the end of July -- could approach the .500 mark and perhaps start looking forward to finally getting out the AL East cellar in 2009. Well, obviously I was proven wrong and a couple of people called me out on my high hopes as the ...
