Locked On Orioles - Daily Podcast On The Baltimore Orioles

Shane Baz gives a solid effort on a brutal night, and the Orioles still find a way to lose. Luke Slabaugh hosts the Orioles Postcast after Baltimore drops another frustrating one to the White Sox, this time an 8-2 defeat that had everything go wrong late. Baz set a career-high with 109 pitches, retired 11 of his last 12 batters, and gave the Orioles every chance to win. They didn’t take it. The offense stayed cold, finishing 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position, while Adley Rutschman gave Baltimore some early life with two sacrifice flies. But the late innings completely fell ap...

The Baltimore Orioles have lost another series in which it felt like they should have won. What's new? Host Connor Newcomb recaps all three games against the Washington Nationals and highlights performances from Brandon Young, Trevor Rogers, Dylan Beavers, and others.

The Orioles drop BOTH Beltway Series matchups to the Nationals—and this one stings. A 6-4 loss that felt even worse than the score shows. Kyle Bradish came in red-hot with a 12 1/3-inning scoreless streak… and then it unraveled fast. Five walks, a big third inning, and one brutal defensive mistake that flipped everything. We break down the moment that changed the game: a routine grounder turned into a spiked throw at third that gifted Washington a critical run. Add in a Luis Garcia Jr. two-run double and suddenly the Orioles were chasing all night. Offensively, Pete Alonso and Jack...

This one will drive you crazy.

The Orioles fall 4-3 in 10 innings to the Nationals in a game that had everything — solid pitching, late offense, and a brutal ending. Luke Slabaugh breaks it all down on the Orioles Postcast.

Let’s start with Brandon Young:
23 swings and misses. 8 strikeouts. Just 2 runs allowed over 5 innings.
The most whiffs by an Oriole through 5 innings in the pitch-tracking era (since 2008). His four-seam fastball and splitter were electric… and it still ends in a loss.

Offensively, it was a grind. Chadwick Tromp somehow records 2 of the Or...

Trevor Rogers set the tone as the Orioles take Game 1 of the Beltway Series, beating the Nationals 3-1 on Friday night. Rogers was in complete control: 6.1 innings, 1 earned run, 7 strikeouts, and no walks. He’s now sitting at a 2.05 ERA in June and pitching like a major piece of this rotation. Tyler Wells stays sharp out of the bullpen, extending his scoreless streak and locking things down late. The offense did just enough—and delivered in key moments. The Orioles go 3-for-12 with runners in scoring position, highlighted by a clutch two-run single from Blaze Alexander. Coby Mayo continues to p...

The Baltimore Orioles have had a weird first half of the season, and while they are 38-44, they are are still right in the playoff mix. Host Connor Newcomb recaps the best and worst moments and performances from the Orioles in the first 82 games of the season.

The Baltimore Orioles have found another way to beat themselves in a series loss to the Los Angeles Angels. Host Connor Newcomb recaps all three games from the week and breaks down Kyle Bradish's dominance, Samuel Basallo's big day, and the Orioles full meltdown in the 10th inning on Wednesday.

Absolute gut punch in Anaheim. The Orioles had this game WON — two outs in the 10th, up one — and somehow handed it away in one of the most chaotic, painful finishes of the season. Luke Slabaugh breaks down a brutal 7-6 walk-off loss to the Angels where defensive miscues and bullpen struggles flipped everything. A routine grounder from Nolan Schanuel turns into a nightmare sequence, Keegan Akin can’t secure the out, Samuel Basallo misses a tag at the plate on a 15-footer from Logan O'Hoppe, and the O’s literally beat themselves. We get into: The two-out 10th inning c...

Should the Baltimore Orioles be buyers or sellers at this year's trade deadline? Host Connor Newcomb tries to answer that questions and suggests some players that the Orioles should go after if they decide to be buyers.

The Orioles had a golden chance to hit a season-high four-game winning streak… and completely fell flat. Luke Slabaugh breaks down a brutal 5-1 loss to the Los Angeles Angels, where 23-year-old rookie Ryan Johnson dominated Baltimore’s lineup with a nasty cut fastball, striking out 8 and carrying a no-hitter into the 6th inning. How did this happen against one of the worst teams in the American League? Baltimore finally scratched across a run in the 7th on a Leody Taveras RBI single — he’s now hitting .340 with runners in scoring position — but it was far too little, far too late i...

The Baltimore Orioles have some former top prospects who currently don't have a great path to regular playing time in the major leagues, and Host Connor Newcomb discusses the futures for Heston Kjerstad, Coby Mayo, Creed Willems, and others. Then, Connor answers Mailbag questions about the latest CBA proposals and what resources he uses to evaluate players.

The Baltimore Orioles are RED HOT. Make it THREE straight wins after a dominant 6-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels. Kyle Bradish looked like a true ACE, tossing 8 shutout innings with 9 strikeouts, now up to 21 Ks over his last two starts and 12 2/3 straight scoreless innings. Pure dominance from start to finish. The offense backed him up in a big way: Coby Mayo CRUSHES a 3-run homer (Earl Weaver style) Gunnar Henderson rips an RBI triple to cap it Taylor Ward goes deep in his first AB vs his former team Plus, key in-game storyline: Blaze Alexander exits with...

The Baltimore Orioles suffered maybe their most soul-crushing loss on Friday night, but somehow rebounded to win the next two games and the series over the Los Angeles Dodgers! Host Connor Newcomb recaps all three games from the series and highlights Trevor Rogers' best start in a while, the disastrous 9th inning on Friday, and the O's offensive explosion on Sunday.

The Baltimore Orioles just delivered one of their BEST wins of the 2026 season — a 12-1 demolition of the Los Angeles Dodgers to take the series against the two-time defending champs. Luke Slabaugh breaks it all down on the Orioles Postcast: how the O’s lineup absolutely TORCHED Emmet Sheehan and Dodgers pitching, why this win feels different, and what it means moving forward. Colton Cowser led the charge with a career-high-tying 4 RBI and a solo homer, while Taylor Ward added power of his own. Pete Alonso delivered the knockout punch with a three-run bomb in the 7th — his 18th of the...

Trevor Rogers was flat-out dominant—and the Orioles just held on.

Rogers carved up the Dodgers over 7 innings, allowing just 1 hit and 2 walks while retiring 12 straight at one point. It was vintage stuff from the lefty, looking every bit like the pitcher who posted a 1.81 ERA across 18 starts in 2025. He controlled the game from the jump and gave Baltimore exactly what it needed.

Then the 9th inning happened.

Andrew Kittredge gives up a solo shot to Shohei Ohtani, and things spiral quickly after. Yennier Cano enters and a defensive miscue from Leody Taveras—his...

This one hurts. The Orioles had it—up 5-3 late after a gritty comeback—then it all unraveled in the ninth. Baltimore falls 6-5 on a walk-off RBI single by Dalton Rushing after Ryan Helsley blows his first save as an Oriole, and a throwing error by Tyler O’Neill seals the deal. For six innings, this looked like a statement. Down 3-0, the O’s finally broke through after a 14-inning scoreless stretch. Gunnar Henderson launched a 2-run homer, Pete Alonso went back-to-back to tie it, and Jeremiah Jackson delivered a clutch bases-loaded 2-run single in the 7th to take...

The Baltimore Orioles lost their series to the Seattle Mariners as they shut out for the first time this season on Thursday.

That one stings. After 76 games, the Orioles are finally shut out — and it comes in a flat 3-0 loss to the Mariners as Seattle takes the series. Bryan Woo carved up Baltimore’s lineup, and the bats never answered. Luke Slabaugh brings the heat on the Orioles Postcast. Shane Baz battled after a brutal first inning, but where was the offense? This is a lineup that’s supposed to show up — and tonight, it didn’t. Is this just a bad night… or a warning sign? If you’re frustrated, you’re not alone. This is the place to vent, react, and...

Kyle Bradish can be an ace, and he showed that on Wednesday night in the Baltimore Orioles 5-3 victory over the Seattle Mariners.

Kyle Bradish just delivered a statement start—and Orioles fans felt every pitch. In 7 2/3 innings of pure dominance, Bradish racks up a career-high 12 strikeouts on exactly 100 pitches, allowing just one run as the O’s take down the Mariners 5-3.

Luke Slabaugh brings the energy on the Orioles Postcast, breaking down a performance that felt different from the jump. Bradish had wipeout stuff all night, setting the tone while the offense came through in the biggest spots.

This was a two-out clinic: 4 RBIs with two outs. Gunnar Henderson launched a two-run homer off George Kirby to o...

This one hurts—and it starts with a performance that deserved better. ((ALSO, WE'RE CELEBRATING THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE LOCKED ON PODCAST NETWORK)) Brandon Young was outstanding again, ripping off his FIFTH straight quality start and going toe-to-toe with Logan Gilbert in a legit pitchers’ duel. He had command, presence, and swing-and-miss when it mattered… until the 7th inning flipped everything. Two singles. Two runs. Game gone. The O's lose 3-1.

The Orioles had several chances to win this one, and let it slip away. Luke Slabaugh breaks down a frustrating 5-2 loss to the Padres as Baltimore wastes a much-needed quality start from left-hander Trevor Rogers, who battled through six innings and deserved better. A brutal bounce in the 2nd inning—an RBI double from rookie Rodolfo Duran that kicked off the second base bag—set the tone for a day where nothing seemed to go the O’s way. Offensively, it’s the same story of late: missed chances. Baltimore goes just 1-for-8 with runners in scoring position, failing...

This wasn’t just a loss—it turned personal late. The Orioles fall 9-3 to the Padres in a game that spiraled early and boiled over in the 9th. Trey Gibson’s 4th MLB start got ambushed in the 1st: two walks, two two-run homers, and a 4-0 hole before Baltimore could respond. He settles in with 7 strikeouts, but the command never shows up—5 walks, 6 ER over 4.1 IP. The Padres crush FIVE home runs, including a late solo shot from former Oriole Manny Machado. Tension builds after Gibson accidentally hits Xander Bogaerts in the helmet in the 5th—clearly unintentio...

Gunnar Henderson hits career home run No. 100 and the Orioles absolutely roll the Padres in a statement Friday night win. At just 24 years old, Gunnar ties Cal Ripken Jr. for the 4th-most home runs by an Oriole before turning 25—and he wasn’t done, going a perfect 3-for-3 with a walk.

Baltimore’s offense brought relentless pressure early with two clutch, two-out rallies. Samuel Basallo crushed a two-run homer off Griffin Canning, and Pete Alonso delivered a bases-loaded single to keep the momentum rolling. This lineup is starting to feel dangerous top to bottom.

The Orioles had chances all night… and still couldn’t finish. Baltimore falls 6-5 in extra innings to the Mariners, despite multiple late-game pushes and finally breaking through with a clutch hit. Leody Taveras delivers an RBI single in the 10th — the Orioles’ ONLY hit with runners in scoring position all night. They finish 1-for-11 with RISP and leave 10 men on base. That’s the game. Coby Mayo brought them back with a 9th inning homer. Samuel Basallo helped force extras. The opportunities were there over and over again — but the Orioles just couldn’t deliver when it mattered most. And then...

The Orioles fall 6-3 to the Mariners, and it’s the same frustrating story we’ve been watching together. Luke Slabaugh breaks it all down on the Orioles Postcast — from Trey Gibson’s shaky but resilient outing filling in for Chris Bassitt, to the moment everything flipped. Anthony Nunez gives up the crushing grand slam to Josh Naylor, and just like that, a winnable game slips away. And offensively… we’ve got to talk about it. The Orioles go 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position and leave 10 men on base. It’s becoming a pattern — and it’s costing games. We’ll get i...

The Orioles had this game. And then… the 6th inning happened. Shane Baz was DEALING through five — efficient, dominant, completely in control of a 4-0 lead. But everything unraveled in a nightmare bottom of the sixth as defensive mistakes, missed calls, and momentum swings handed the Blue Jays a 6-4 comeback win and the series. A Gunnar Henderson error cracked the door open. A controversial missed base path call could’ve ended the inning. Instead, it spiraled — and you could feel Baz (and the Orioles) lose their edge in real time. Colton Cowser and Taylor Ward gave Baltimore early life wit...

Kyle Bradish didn’t have it—and the Orioles paid for it. In a 6-4 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, Bradish struggled with fastball command all night, allowing 5 runs in just 4 innings, capped by a crushing three-run homer from Ernie Clement. When your ace-level arm can’t locate, this is what it looks like. And here’s the frustrating part: the Orioles had the power. Three home runs from Pete Alonso, Colton Cowser, and Blaze Alexander SHOULD be enough to win most nights—but Baltimore goes 0-for-5 with runners in scoring position and leaves the door wide open. Gunnar Hen...

This was a statement. The Orioles hang 12 unanswered runs on Toronto and run away with a 13-3 win in the series opener.

Adley Rutschman puts on a superstar performance—4-for-4, 5 RBIs, finishing a triple shy of the cycle, and adding a two-run double in the ninth to pour it on. He didn’t just lead the offense—he owned the game.

The turning point? A five-run sixth inning that flipped everything. Then Baltimore keeps stacking pressure with three in the eighth and four more in the ninth—three crooked numbers that bury the Blue Jays.
