Orioles News

The Baltimore Orioles' struggles continued as they fell to the San Diego Padres 5-2 at home, pushing their record to 34-39 and highlighting a season filled with inconsistency. The ninth inning became a microcosm of their problems, as Gunnar Henderson and Jackson Holliday committed three errors on two plays, allowing the Padres to extend their lead and seal the victory. Tyler O'Neill's potential resurgence is a flicker of hope in an otherwise dim landscape, but the team's defensive woes are a glaring issue with no easy fix in sight. On top of this, the reliance on Rico Garcia in relief is starting to show cracks, raising concerns about the bullpen's stability. With 11 players on the injured list, the O's are in dire need of some magic to turn the tide.

Podcast: Long winning streaks keep eluding the Orioles
Another week of confusing 2026 Orioles baseball is in the books. After looking like they were heading back to the cellar by losing the first two games of the Seattle series, they ripped off three straight wins and, facing a Padres team with a struggling offense, had a chance to finally get in a longer […]

The Orioles defense is a problem with no easy in-season fix
The Orioles didn’t lose on Sunday because of their defense, but it certainly didn’t help. In the top of the ninth inning the middle infield duo of Gunnar Henderson and Jackson Holliday combined for three errors in the span of two batted balls. That set the table for the fifth and final Padres run of […]
