  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.

  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.

  ORIOLES POSTCAST: Gunnar Henderson's Clutch HR Lifts Baltimore Orioles Over New York Mets in Pete Alonso Homecoming 15.09.2026 18min

  Pete Alonso returned to Citi Field in Orioles black and orange for the first time, one home run shy of career No. 300 ... and while the former Mets franchise home-run king did not get his storybook moment, his new Baltimore teammates made sure he opened the series in Queens with a win. Luke Slabaugh reacts to the Orioles’ gritty 2-1 victory over the New York Mets in an emotional homecoming night for Alonso. Baltimore’s new first baseman went 0-for-3 with a walk against the organization that drafted him, but he came close to launching No. 300 when he got out in front of Jonah Tong’s 3-1 changeup and sent a long fly ball just foul. The Orioles had limited offense all night, but they delivered when the game demanded it. Heston Kjerstad put Baltimore on the board with an RBI double, and Gunnar Henderson came through with the defining swing in the top of the eighth. Gunnar crushed a middle-low slider from Mets right-hander Dedniel Núñez for a go-ahead home run — his 23rd blast of the season — to lift the O’s to a massive late win in New York. Brandon Young fought through five difficult innings, tying a career high with five walks and throwing a career-high 106 pitches. It was not pretty, but he kept Baltimore in the game. Then Josh Walker took over. The left-hander recorded five crucial outs and extended his scoreless outing streak to 17 appearances, the Orioles’ longest such streak since Yennier Cano in 2023. On a night built around Pete Alonso’s return home, the Orioles showed up for their newest star — and Gunnar Henderson provided the swing that sent Birdland home happy. In this Orioles Postcast, Luke breaks down: Pete Alonso’s first game back at Citi Field as an Oriole Alonso remaining one home run away from 300 career homers Gunnar Henderson’s game-changing eighth-inning homer Heston Kjerstad’s RBI double and Baltimore’s narrowly enough offense Brandon Young battling through five inefficient innings Josh Walker’s dominant five-out relief appearance and 17-game scoreless streak Why this was a huge team win for the Orioles in New York Subscribe for daily Baltimore Orioles postgame reaction, instant analysis, player breakdowns, trade and roster discussion, and everything Birdland.

  ORIOLES POSTCAST: Baltimore Orioles’ September NIGHTMARE Continues in 8-1 loss vs. Toronto Blue Jays 13.09.2026 17min

  The Orioles had Dylan Cease backed into a corner in the first inning. They came away with absolutely nothing. Baltimore dropped Sunday’s series finale in Toronto, 8-1, suffering a crushing loss that feels even bigger than the final score. The O’s loaded the bases with nobody out and worked Cease for 33 pitches in the first, but failed to score. From there, the offense never found a way to make Toronto pay. Trevor Rogers was sharp early, but the Blue Jays broke through in the fifth inning with back-to-back-to-back home runs from George Springer, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., and Kazuma Okamoto. Baltimore’s lone run came on Pete Alonso’s RBI single, his 100th RBI of the season. Then the eighth turned a frustrating loss into a full-blown rout. Yaramíl Hiraldo allowed four runs and issued four walks overall as Toronto pulled away, 8-1. The Orioles now fall six games under .500 with only 12 games remaining. They are 3-9 in September, no longer control their own Wild Card destiny, and will need a lot of help while trying to climb past Cleveland, Toronto, and Texas. Baltimore will also have to sweep the Blue Jays at Camden Yards next week to win the season series. Luke Slabaugh reacts to the Orioles’ blown first-inning opportunity, the fifth-inning home-run barrage, the brutal late collapse, and a playoff push that is most likely over.

  ORIOLES POSTCAST: Baltimore Orioles Crushed Early as Kyle Bradish’s Birthday Start Goes Sideways vs. Toronto Blue Jays 12.09.2026 19min

  The Orioles needed a statement win in Toronto. Instead, they got buried early. Kyle Bradish’s birthday start unraveled fast as the Blue Jays tagged him for five earned runs in a deflating 7–3 Orioles loss on Saturday. Toronto refused to chase Bradish’s offspeed pitches, and with his slider and curve difficult to land consistently, the Blue Jays sat on the fastball and did damage. There were opportunities—and flashes—but Baltimore could not turn them into enough runs. The Orioles worked a 31-pitch first inning against opener Spencer Miles, while Pete Alonso launched his 299th career home run, a two-run shot off Paul Sewald in the seventh. But questionable baserunning decisions loomed large: Christian Encarnacion-Strand was thrown out at the plate to end the fourth after being sent from second on Colton Cowser’s single, then was held at third two innings later despite Jeremiah Jackson’s deeper double into right-center. The Orioles are now 3–8 in September, with just 13 games left to climb a more-than-three-game Wild Card gap on Cleveland while also passing Toronto and Texas. Baltimore’s elimination number is down to 11. Luke Slabaugh reacts to another frustrating Orioles loss, Bradish’s rough outing, the offense’s missed chances, Buck Britton’s decisions, and what has to change immediately if the O’s are going to keep their postseason hopes alive.

  ORIOLES POSTCAST: Baltimore Orioles EXPLODE for 5 in 2nd, Topple Toronto Blue Jays | Dylan Beavers, Coby Mayo Go Deep 12.09.2026 18min

  THE BIG INNING IS BACK, and the Orioles may have just delivered their most important win of September. Luke Slabaugh reacts to the Baltimore Orioles’ 7-4 win over the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre to open a pivotal series in the AL Wild Card chase. After an 8-run inning helped Baltimore finish off Cleveland on Wednesday, the O’s jumped all over Max Scherzer for five runs in the second inning on Friday night. Dylan Beavers set the tone immediately with his first career leadoff home run, then delivered a two-run single in Baltimore’s huge second inning. Heston Kjerstad got the rally started, Colton Cowser ripped a two-run double into the left-field corner, and the Orioles went a perfect 4-for-4 with runners in scoring position during the decisive frame. Coby Mayo added insurance with his 23rd homer of the season — and he is suddenly heating up against right-handed pitching. Mayo has now homered in back-to-back games against righties, with three homers off right-handers in his last four games. Chris Bassitt battled through uneven command but limited Toronto to two runs across 5+ innings. Then Josh Walker once again slammed the door, recording four straight outs and extending his scoreless-earned-run streak to 16 consecutive appearances. Walker’s ERA now sits at 1.80. The Orioles are 3-7 in September and still face a steep Wild Card climb with 14 games remaining. But if Baltimore is going to hunt down Cleveland, Toronto and Texas, this is exactly the kind of statement win the O’s needed.

  ORIOLES POSTCAST: Baltimore Orioles ERUPT for 8-Run 3rd, Crush Cleveland Guardians 9-5 to Win Series! 10.09.2026 20min

  THE ORIOLES FINALLY EXPLODED behind Shane Baz, and it could not have come at a better time. Luke Slabaugh reacts to Baltimore’s massive 9-5 win over the Cleveland Guardians, powered by an eight-run third inning that flipped the game, buried Foster Griffin, and delivered a three-game series victory for the O’s. Baltimore sent its first seven hitters aboard in the third, went 6-for-8 with runners in scoring position in the inning, and made Cleveland pay from top to bottom of the lineup. Dylan Beavers sparked the rally with a bizarre 53-mph bloop double, then finished 2-for-5 with three RBI. Christian Encarnacion-Strand, Jackson Holliday, Rece Hinds, Jeremiah Jackson, Leody Taveras, and Beavers all helped turn a 2-0 hole into an 8-2 Baltimore lead. Coby Mayo added even more thunder with his 22nd home run of the season in the seventh inning. Shane Baz received rare early breathing room and responded with shutdown fourth and fifth innings, including a seven-pitch fifth. But his sixth-inning trouble nearly gave Cleveland life, as Nathaniel Lowe launched a two-run homer and Patrick Bailey ripped an RBI double before Baz exited with Baltimore still ahead 8-5. After entering the night 1-7 in September and staring up at the Wild Card race, did this eight-run explosion feel like the jolt the Orioles desperately needed? Baltimore has 15 games left and little room for error while chasing Toronto and Texas. On this Orioles Postcast: Orioles score 8 runs in the third inning Dylan Beavers delivers 3 RBI in the rally Jackson Holliday and Jeremiah Jackson come through Coby Mayo hits homer No. 22 Shane Baz battles through six innings What this series win means for Baltimore’s Wild Card push Can the Orioles build momentum after a brutal start to September?
