THE ORIOLES AREN’T DONE YET! Luke Slabaugh reacts to Baltimore’s 4-2 Game 1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays at Camden Yards in the Orioles Postcast. For at least one more game at Camden Yards, the O’s gave the home crowd something to celebrate — and they ended Toronto’s postseason hopes in the process. Baltimore has four games remaining, while its own elimination number sits at one heading into Wednesday night’s second game of the doubleheader. In this episode: How the Orioles jumped on Max Scherzer early with clutch second-inning execution Jeremiah Jackson’s RBI hit and the aggressive rundown play that allowed Colton Cowser to score Pete Alonso’s huge two-run homer — his 41st home run, 305th career blast, and a league-leading 110th RBI Chris Bassitt’s five-plus gritty innings and how he repeatedly worked around early traffic Luis De León allowing inherited runners to score — and Anthony Nuñez slamming the door with four up, four down on just 14 pitches What this victory means as the Orioles’ playoff fate could be decided tonight The Orioles may be hanging by a thread, but they made sure the Blue Jays are officially out. Let’s talk about a win that mattered — for the players, for Camden Yards, and for every O’s fan who wanted one more reason to cheer.

ORIOLES POSTCAST: Pete Alonso Hits 40th HR as Baltimore Orioles STORM Back to Beat Toronto Blue Jays 4-3 22.09.2026 17Min.

PETE ALONSO HIT NO. 40, THE ORIOLES RALLIED, AND BALTIMORE IS STILL ALIVE. The Orioles erased a 3-0 deficit and stunned the Toronto Blue Jays 4-3 in Monday’s series opener at Camden Yards. Pete Alonso delivered the signature moment, launching a two-run homer off right-hander Tyler Rogers in the eighth inning after getting a 1-1 two-seamer over the middle of the plate. Alonso’s blast was his 40th home run of the 2026 season. He becomes the ninth different player to record a 40-homer season for the Orioles, producing the franchise’s 10th 40-home-run season. It was the kind of superstar swing Baltimore needed—and it sparked a massive late comeback. The win moves the Orioles to 76-81. Baltimore’s elimination number remains at two, and after another late, tight finish, the O’s improve to 18-24 in one-run games this season. Shane Baz also kept the Orioles close after a nightmare first inning. Toronto scored three early runs after a pitch-timer violation walk, another walk, back-to-back RBI singles, and a sacrifice fly. Baz responded by working 5.2 scoreless innings, retiring 12 consecutive Blue Jays at one point, and delivering a quality start when Baltimore desperately needed someone to stop the bleeding. Luke Slabaugh reacts to the Orioles’ 4-3 comeback win, Pete Alonso reaching 40 homers, the franchise-history milestone, Baz’s huge recovery, the eighth-inning rally, and whether this win can give Baltimore one last push with the regular season winding down. Can the Orioles keep this going with their elimination number at two? And where does Alonso’s 40th homer rank among Baltimore’s biggest moments of 2026? Let Luke know in the comments.

ORIOLES POSTCAST: Félix Bautista Returns, but Baltimore Orioles Offense Ruins Everything, SWEPT by Milwaukee Brewers 21.09.2026 18Min.

The Orioles have gone 19 straight innings without scoring, and Sunday Night Baseball ended with another frustrating shutout. Baltimore fell 3-0 to the Milwaukee Brewers and completed a sweep at Camden Yards, wasting a huge outing from Brandon Young. Young battled through six innings of two-run baseball, striking out a career-high nine Brewers, but the Orioles offense could not deliver a single run when it mattered most. The Brewers completed the three-game sweep, while Baltimore’s playoff hopes continue to fade with an elimination number of two and only six regular-season games remaining. But there was one massive positive: Félix Bautista is back. The Mountain made his first bullpen appearance roughly a year after shoulder surgery. The velocity and command were understandably not all the way there, and he allowed a run in two-thirds of an inning—but that barely matters tonight. Bautista being back on a major-league mound is a huge moment for the Orioles. And then there was the sixth inning. Gunnar Henderson gets hit, Coby Mayo and Samuel Basallo walk, and Milwaukee pitcher Chad Patrick throws nine consecutive balls with two wild pitches. Bases loaded. Two outs. Down two. After all that, Jeremiah Jackson swings at the first pitch and rolls over to first base to end the inning. That cannot happen. Luke Slabaugh reacts to the Orioles’ 3-0 loss, the Brewers sweep, Young’s career night, Bautista’s return, the maddening sixth-inning at-bat, and what Baltimore’s shrinking playoff path means with six games left.

ORIOLES POSTCAST: Baltimore Orioles CHOKE Another Game Away in Gut-Wrenching 10-Inning Loss to Milwaukee Brewers 19.09.2026 19Min.

The Baltimore Orioles had chance after chance to beat the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night — and they CHOKED away every one of them in a crushing 6-5 extra-inning loss. Cade Povich could not settle in early, retiring only 11 batters while allowing three earned runs on five hits. The biggest mistake was a lifeless 3-0 changeup that Jackson Chourio crushed for a three-run homer. But the Orioles fought back immediately, as Pete Alonso launched a huge three-run blast to tie the game. That should have been the turning point. Instead, Baltimore loaded the bases with one out after Alonso’s homer and came away with nothing. Colton Cowser and Jeremiah Jackson failed to deliver, setting the tone for another frustrating night of missed chances. The Orioles finished just 2-for-13 with runners in scoring position, including 0-for-their-final-11 opportunities. The bullpen kept the Orioles alive with 4.2 scoreless innings, but Rico Garcia’s ninth inning put Baltimore in a hole after a walk to Bryce Turang and RBI hits by William Contreras and Christian Yelich. Still, the O’s refused to quit: Samuel Basallo and Christian Encarnacion-Strand delivered back-to-back sacrifice flies in the ninth to tie the game and force extra innings. Then came the final gut punch. Milwaukee scored the automatic runner in the 10th inning, while Baltimore could not even move its own runner over. Another winnable game. Another critical late-game failure. Another brutal loss as the Orioles’ postseason hopes continue to fade. Luke Slabaugh breaks down Povich’s tough start, Alonso’s big swing, the bullpen’s strong bridge work, the ninth-inning rally, Baltimore’s dreadful situational hitting, and why this loss may be one of the most frustrating of the season.

ORIOLES POSTCAST: Baltimore Orioles SWEEP New York Mets Behind 4-Homer Party! Chris Bassitt Dominates in 7-1 Win 17.09.2026 18Min.

THE ORIOLES JUST SWEPT THE METS, AND THEY DID IT WITH A FULL-ON HOME RUN PARTY ON NATIONAL TELEVISION. Baltimore blasted four homers in the first three innings, then added one final run in the ninth to finish a 7–1 statement win at Citi Field. Christian Encarnacion-Strand and Samuel Basallo went back-to-back in the third inning, Jeremiah Jackson crushed a two-run homer, and the Orioles poured it on early against Mets spot starter Xzavion Curry. Pete Alonso’s 301st career home run accounted for New York’s only run. Samuel Basallo wasn’t finished, either. After launching his 18th homer of the season, Basallo added an RBI single in the ninth inning to make it 7–1 and put an exclamation point on Baltimore’s Mets sweep. Chris Bassitt was everything the Orioles needed in a huge late-season game. He worked 6 2/3 innings, struck out six, allowed just one run, and earned his eighth win of the season. Baltimore’s offense went quiet after its early home-run barrage — until Basallo delivered one more clutch hit in the ninth. The Orioles are now 2.5 games behind the Chicago White Sox for the third American League Wild Card spot. With nine games remaining, Baltimore’s elimination number sits at eight. The road is tight, but the O’s are still fighting — and they just made a loud statement on ESPN. Luke Slabaugh reacts to the Orioles’ 7–1 win over the Mets, the four-homer power show, Samuel Basallo’s huge night, Chris Bassitt’s dominant start, the sweep at Citi Field, and what Baltimore needs in the final stretch of the playoff race.

Clutch home runs from Pete Alonso and Coby Mayo power the Orioles past the Mets! 16.09.2026 35Min.

ORIOLES POSTCAST: Pete Alonso Hits 300th HR vs New York Mets, Coby Mayo’s INSIDE-the-PARK HR wins it! 16.09.2026 18Min.

The Baltimore Orioles erased a late deficit, watched Pete Alonso make history against his former team, and then got one of the wildest extra-inning finishes of the season in a 7-5 win over the Mets in 11 innings. With the Orioles down to their final three outs in the ninth, Alonso crushed a 2-0 forkball from Kodai Senga for his 300th career home run—a game-tying blast at Citi Field against the franchise where he built his legacy. The Mets crowd still gave their former star a curtain call after the milestone shot. Then came the extra-inning chaos. In the top of the 11th, Coby Mayo turned on an 0-2 cutter and sent it deep to center for a three-run inside-the-park homer, putting Baltimore ahead for good and turning a memorable night into a massive Orioles win. It was Mayo’s seventh three-run homer of the season, second-most in MLB. But this victory also came with a major concern: Shane Baz was forced from the game in the fifth inning after taking a 105 MPH Bo Bichette line drive off his right elbow. Baz has made every start for Baltimore and carried an enormous load for this rotation despite receiving far too little run support. Orioles fans will be anxiously waiting for an update. Rookie left-hander Luis De Leon gave Baltimore two perfect innings of relief in the sixth and seventh, while the Orioles offense saved its biggest swings for when the game mattered most. Luke Slabaugh reacts to Alonso’s historic No. 300, Mayo’s unbelievable inside-the-park three-run homer, the Orioles’ 11-inning comeback win, and the concern surrounding Shane Baz.
