After a poor weekend in Tampa Bay, the Orioles have a four-game losing streak. That might not seem like much in this season of losing streaks, but it’s the fourth skid of at least four in a row. The Orioles’ 7-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field on Sunday...
In nearly seven decades, the Orioles have had a long list of excellent shortstops: Luis Aparicio, Mark Belanger, Cal Ripken Jr., Mike Bordick, Miguel Tejada and J.J. Hardy. Ever since Hardy left after the 2017 season, there’s been a new starter each season. Manny Machado began 2018 at shortstop but was traded...

BALTIMORE—When the Orioles signed Matt Harvey as spring training began, they were hoping the veteran right-hander could benefit from the team’s philosophy and perhaps pitch well enough to become a trade chip come July. Harvey did pitch well enough for the first month of the season, but he’s headed south since. In...
BALTIMORE—After a 14-game losing streak and 21 losses in 23 games, the Orioles’ bats have come alive. In their last two games against Cleveland and the New York Mets, the team has scored 28 runs, the fourth most in a two-game span in club history. The last time the Orioles scored in...
BALTIMORE—In the Orioles’ 14-game losing streak, they scored two runs or fewer seven times. That seems so long ago. Since that streak ended a week ago, the Orioles have won five of six and their quiet bats have begun to boom. On Tuesday night, they had 16 hits, nine for extra bases,...
