Camden Yards Workers Screwed Over Yet Again
The other day, the Baltimore Orioles got lots of positive press by announcing that stadium staffers would be compensated for wages lost while a state of emergency was declared in the city. Two home games were canceled, another was played at an empty Camden Yards, and three others were moved to Tampa...
Orioles Fan Pointedly Turns Back On A-Rod, Figuratively Shows His Ass
At some point in his life, every man has to decide what he stands for. Who is he really, deep inside? What are his values? Last night at Camden Yards, while the Baltimore Orioles took on the New York Yankees, 56-year-old Tolbert Rowe reached that point in his life. He stood up, bravely and proudly,...
Jose Bautista's Home-Run Skip Was Part Of A Two-Year-Old Grudge
After Orioles reliever Darren O’Day threw behind Jose Bautista Sunday, the Blue Jays outfielder slapped a two-run home run as Toronto won, 10-7. Bautista started his trot by skipping for a few seconds. Though it was enjoyable enough without context, there was meaning behind it....
Orioles Augment Drills With Fake Crowd Noise; Neighbors Call The Cops
Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter came up with a fun new spring training drill by forcing his players to field pop-ups while piping loud-ass fake crowd noise through the stadium's PA system. Unfortunately, some sensitive baby called the cops on them:...

Tall Grandpa Mark Hendrickson Is Trying A Comeback
Is there anything better than a good comeback attempt, especially one where everybody involved recognizes the minuscule chance of it being successful, yet wants to give it a shot anyway because what the hell, why not?

Adam Jones's Take On The Season: "Fucking Awesome"
The Orioles just lost four straight games to the Royals to get knocked out of the playoffs, but you won't see a morose Adam Jones moping around.

Sports Radio Caller Gets Robbed While Rapping On Air
Will in Baltimore was working the graveyard shift at 7-11 last night, and decided to call into Damon Amendolara's CBS Sports radio show to commiserate about the Orioles dropping a third straight game to the Royals in the ALCS.

Baseball Battle For Lorde's Approval Continues Unabated
Update: Apparently I'm an idiot/pop culture recluse, and the shirt actually references the hook from Chris Brown's song "Loyal" which goes "these hoes ain't loyal." In my defense I rarely listen to that women-beating moron, and I'm really annoyed by all of those Lorde cover songs. Anyways, look at t...

Buck Showalter Can't Stop Pushing The Right Buttons
It's a results-based business. And Orioles manager Buck Showalter—who, if he doesn't precisely rely on his hunches, at least tends to make decisions questionable enough that you notice they were decisions at all—finally has a playoff series win to call his own....
Orioles Win Game 2 By Thiiiiis Much
This here is Baltimore Orioles shortstop J.J. Hardy eluding Tigers catcher Alex Avila—by, hell, an inch?—to give the Orioles a 7-6 lead in the bottom of the eighth. Hardy was the third run to score on Delmon Young's pinch-hit, bases-clearing double. ...
Orioles Win, Pound Tigers With Eight Run Eighth Inning
Max Scherzer was right. When Tigers manager Brad Ausmus strolled to the mound to pull him out of Thursday night's ALDS opener, Scherzer was observably unhappy. Sure, he'd yielded four runs across 7 1/3 innings to the Orioles, and Alejandro De Aza had just ripped a double off of him. Scherzer is th...
Adam Jones Pies Fans While Celebrating AL East Title
The Baltimore Orioles clinched the AL East last night, which is great news, because the Orioles are not the Red Sox or the Yankees. It is also great news because it gave Orioles all-star outfielder Adam Jones a chance to celebrate his team's division title by mashing pies into the faces of Orioles...
