Locked On Orioles - Daily Podcast On The Baltimore Orioles

THE ORIOLES TOOK DOWN THE BEST TEAM IN BASEBALL, AND THEY MADE US SWEAT EVERY SECOND OF IT. Baltimore outlasted the Tampa Bay Rays 6-5 in a wild series opener, fighting through a ninth-inning scare to secure a massive win. Gunnar Henderson was unstoppable, going 4-for-4 and crushing the decisive two-run homer in the eighth inning. Dylan Beavers delivered a huge pinch-hit, two-run single, while Colton Cowser added a homer of his own. Chris Bassitt also gave the Orioles exactly what they needed in his first start since June 3. After battling back issues for more than two months, Bassitt...

The Orioles had this one seemingly in their hands, then it completely unraveled. After jumping out to a 4-1 lead, Baltimore went flat in a frustrating 7-5 getaway-day loss to the Minnesota Twins. Shane Baz could not hold the lead, surrendering five runs on nine hits in just three innings as his command disappeared in the third. The Orioles’ offense then vanished too, with Twins pitching retiring 10 straight after the fourth inning began. Jackson Holliday put the O’s on the board with an RBI groundout, and Dylan Beavers delivered the big early swing: an Earl Weaver special three-run home...

The Orioles answered the bell in Minnesota. After Monday night’s frustrating loss, Baltimore came out swinging and blasted the Twins 5-2 behind a three-homer power surge. Gunnar Henderson launched his 19th homer of the season—a massive two-run shot—while Pete Alonso crushed his 26th, another two-run blast that put the O’s in control. And then Christian Encarnacion-Strand delivered the exclamation point: a 460-foot TANK JOB for his fourth homer as an Oriole. Bailey Ober tried to soft-toss his way through this lineup, and the Birds made him pay. Brandon Young gave Baltimore exactly what it needed on the m...

The Orioles got absolutely owned by their ex. Former O’s starter Dean Kremer delivered one of the best starts of his career against Baltimore, carving up the Orioles for seven innings of one-run, one-hit baseball as the Minnesota Twins took down the O’s, 9-5. Two starts after being traded, the Twins appear to have fixed Kremer, and the Orioles were left looking completely helpless at the plate for most of the night. Luke Slabaugh reacts to another brutal Orioles loss, including Trevor Rogers battling through command issues, Cam Sanders’ promising return, Rico Garcia’s seventh-inning meltdown, and Grant Wo...

The Baltimore Orioles lost a crucial series to the Texas Rangers, but at least their offense woke up on Sunday to avoid the sweep. Host Connor Newcomb recaps all three games from the weekend and highlights performances from Pete Alonso, Shane Baz, Grant Wolfram, and others.

PEEEEEEEEEETE! Pete Alonso just delivered his best game in an Orioles uniform, and the O’s absolutely unloaded on the Texas Rangers in a 10-5 Sunday win. Alonso reached safely in all five plate appearances, going 3-for-3 with two home runs, two walks, and a massive day at the heart of Baltimore’s attack. The Orioles tagged Kumar Rocker early, caught up to the fastball and slider, then kept piling on against Jordan Montgomery and the Texas bullpen. Four homers. Seven extra-base hits. Four separate crooked numbers. Colton Cowser and Tyler O’Neill joined Pete Alonso in going deep as the...

The Orioles wasted another electric Shane Baz start in a brutal 2-1 Friday night loss to the Texas Rangers. Baz was absolutely dealing in his first career complete game, retiring 12 straight Rangers at one point, punching out a season-high-tying nine hitters, and making batters look foolish with a filthy cutter and knuckle curve. But Baltimore’s offense could not capitalize. Leody Taveras doubled in the second, Coby Mayo drove him home, and that was it. One run. Again. We can talk about that nonsense in the top of the ninth, as well. Then came the one mistake that changed ev...

The Baltimore Orioles were not able to finish off the sweep on Thursday, falling to the Los Angeles Angels 4-1.

The Orioles looked like the visiting team in their own ballpark, and it cost them. In this episode of the Orioles Postcast, Luke Slabaugh breaks down Baltimore's deflating 4-1 series finale loss to the Los Angeles Angels, where the O's gave away WAY too many outs on both sides of the ball. We dive into: Jackson Holliday's brutal sun-filled adventure in the 2nd that set up a bases-loaded, 0-out nightmare for Brandon Young. Young's own mistakes in the 3rd: an E1 on a comebacker, a four-pitch walk, and Zachary Neto's 3-run blast on a meaty 2-seamer. The offense's frustrating...

The Baltimore Orioles take the series from the Los Angeles Angels with a huge 5-2 victory, improving to just two games under .500 and keeping themselves firmly in the American League Wild Card conversation.

Orioles pitchers issuing zero walks in a sharp overall performance. Alex Hoppe making his Baltimore debut afte...

Then, Connor discusses the Orioles roster moves to activate Christian Franklin and Carlos Narvaez on Tuesday before bidding farewell to a group of O's minor leaguers who were released this week.

The Orioles are in the middle of a volatile, emotional stretch in Birdland — and after the stunning Adley Rutschman trade, Cade Povich stepped in and delivered a performance Orioles fans needed badly. Luke Slabaugh breaks down the chaos, the energy, and the spark in Baltimore’s 3-1 win over the Angels at Camden Yards. Povich shoved for six shutout innings with seven strikeouts, Christian Franklin made his debut and helped ignite the third-inning rally, and Tyler O’Neill delivered the exclamation point with a pinch-hit homer in the eighth. This is the Orioles Postcast — where we bring the energy, tell the...

The rain came, the offense vanished, and the Orioles got blanked again. In a wild, frustrating, rain-soaked finale against the Phillies, Baltimore fell 8-0 in a game cut short after 6 innings as the deluge kept pouring and the bats stayed silent. Kyle Bradish was tagged by a two-run homer from Bryan De La Cruz in the third, Anthony Nunez ran into trouble after the long rain delay, and Josh Walker plus Albert Suarez got hit in the fifth and sixth as Philadelphia scored in four straight innings to put this one away. The Orioles had almost nothing going offensively...

The Orioles had chances. They had traffic. They even had two innings with the bases loaded against Cristopher Sánchez. And still, the bats went missing at the worst possible time. Luke Slabaugh breaks down a frustrating 5-0 loss as Shane Baz turns in another nails outing — 6 1/3 innings, just one run allowed, and yet another quality start wasted. The lone damage came on a walk to Bryson Stott and an RBI single from Bryan De La Cruz, and then the bullpen unravelled from there. Grant Wolfram put men on base in the eighth, and Andrew Kittredge — riding a 15-game score...

Never doubt the fight in these Orioles. Baltimore looked dead in the water against rookie right-hander Andrew Painter, then erupted for a four-run seventh inning to steal a wild 6-4 win over the Phillies on Friday night. The O’s opened hot, with Dylan Beavers doubling and Pete Alonso crushing a homer to tie the game at 2 in the first. Then the offense went quiet for a stretch as Painter settled in and Baltimore searched for a breakthrough. That breakthrough came in the seventh — and it was loud. Christian Encarnacion-Strand stayed scorching hot with a huge two-run double into the...

The Orioles were blown out 14-0 in Detroit in a game that was never competitive.

How many times are we going to watch this same movie? The Orioles fall 3-2 in 11 innings to the Braves—and the extra-inning failures are becoming a full-blown problem. Baltimore is now 3-6 in extras, 9-17 in one-run games, and 6-8 in rubber games. The margins are screaming at you. And this one? Completely self-inflicted. Top of the 10th: bases loaded, nobody out. Gunnar Henderson gets four straight sweepers with a FIVE-man infield and Mauricio Dubón playing in from left—open grass everywhere. Instead of taking what’s given, he tries to yank it and lines into a brutal...

The Orioles FINALLY come through in the clutch—and it’s Dylan Beavers delivering AGAIN. On a 100 MPH first-pitch heater, Beavers shoots a walk-off single through the right side to score Jackson Holliday and lift the O’s to a 3-2 win over the Atlanta Braves. It’s Beavers’ THIRD career walk-off hit as Baltimore improves to 9-16 in one-run games. Brandon Young was electric and deserved better. The right-hander spun 6.1 innings of one-run ball with 6 strikeouts, continuing a dominant stretch since Memorial Day (2.65 ERA over his last 11 starts). His season ERA now sits at 3.13—and the Orioles are 13-3 in his st...

The Orioles had it. A 2-0 start, another quality outing from Trevor Rogers, and chances to put away the NL East-leading Braves — and it still ends in a 7-6 extra-innings loss. This one hurts. Luke Slabaugh breaks down how Baltimore let it slip: two blown leads, a 10th-inning defensive collapse, and a bullpen that couldn’t finish off Rogers’ third straight quality start. With the playoff race tightening, these are the games you cannot lose. In the 10th, Andrew Kittredge allows a Joey Bart single, then Jackson Holliday’s rushed throw from his knees turns into a costly two-base error. T...

The Baltimore Orioles RESPOND in Game 2 with a 5-1 win over the Red Sox at Fenway Park, earning a split in the doubleheader and closing out a 4-2 road trip. Luke Slabaugh breaks it all down on the Orioles Postcast with instant reaction you can’t get anywhere else. Game 2 was about setting the tone early — and the O’s finally did it. A four-run first inning flipped the script immediately. After a wild pitch opened the scoring, Dylan Beavers ripped a two-run single to center, and Johnathan Rodriguez — fresh off the call-up — cashed in with a line drive off the Gr...
