These games read like an episode in a series:

"Orioles lose another one behind a lackluster offense: Just don't get no-hit edition."

Four Tigers pitchers came within an out of a no-no before Gunnar Henderson's 2-out triple in the 9th inning. Before that, it was a perfect game into the 8th before a leadoff walk by Adley Rutschman. Is it the injuries, Brandon Hyde, Mercury in Retrograde? Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

Dean Kremer, coming off an early exit in his last start after taking a 103 mph liner off his arm, was spectacular, taking a no-hitter into the 7th inning of a 2-0 victory over the Rays. The bats, however, faltered yet again and Adley Rutschman seems as lost as ever at the plate. But Gunnar is scalding hot! Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles failed again to reach 3 straight wins, a feat they have yet to accomplish since wrapping a 3 game win streak around the All-Star Break. It makes the 5th straight occurrence in which 2 consecutive victories were followed by a defeat. Despite 10 runs on 17 hits, 4 hits from Jackson Holliday and 5 RBI from Ramon Urias, and scoreless outings from Brian Baker and Keegan Akin, the Birds dropped a slugfest to the Red Sox as Corbin Burnes had the worst outing of his career, allowing 8 runs on 10 hits in just 4 innings. Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles found themselves on the wrong end of another close game again last night, this time a 7-5 loss at the hands of the woeful Rockies. It was the same factors that have haunted them recently: a shaky bullpen and inconsistent bats. Can the team bounce back with a softer September schedule? Plus, more injuries have the O's scrambling, and Coby Mayo is back. Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles mounted a miraculous comeback as Tony Taters mashed a go-ahead, 8th inning grand slam to give the Birds an improbable 7-5 victory over the red-hot Astros. Was this the spark the team needed to get back on track? Plus, good news for the rotation, but bad news for the offense as a number of key players are slumping hard at the same time. Dillon Atkinson fills in for Ryan Blake as he and Paul discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles put together a solid team effort Friday night, getting 7 innings of shutout ball from Zach Eflin as he squared off against his former team for the first time since they traded him to Baltimore two weeks ago. With Grayson Rodriguez's injury, is Eflin just what the doctor ordered? And do the O's have a chance to solidify their spot in the postseason with September's softer start? Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles seemed to be gaining momentum, winning 4 of 5 games while also adding two rotation pieces and two bullpen pieces to the roster at the trade deadline. But then came another ill-fated trip to Cleveland that has seen the Orioles lose the first two games of the four game series by a combined 12 runs, clinching a 6th season series loss to the Guardians in the last seven full seasons. Can Zach Eflin and Corbin Burnes right the ship and salvage some dignity for the team? Plus, Coby Mayo and Jackson Holliday are here and contributing! Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles are playing their worst baseball since early 2022, having lost 7 of 11. The team is just 16-20 since their 6-game winning streak dating back to June 13th. But clearer skies could be on the horizon as the team acquired Seranthony Dominguez and Zach Eflin in trades on Friday. Are they enough to get this team back on track? Plus, was Austin Hays causing a rift in the clubhouse? Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles opened the "second half" with some fireworks, blasting 4 multi-run home runs on their way to a decisive 9-1 victory over the Rangers, their 4th in 5 tries vs. the defending World Champions. Did the offensive outburst squash any lineup concerns, or are you still concerned over the bottom of the order? Plus, some trade rumors. It's that time of year! Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!

The Orioles suffered their 4th straight loss last night, falling to the Yankees, 3-1. With their lead in the AL East down to just 1 game, the Orioles find themselves in the midst of an offensive cold streak, having scored 1 run in their last 32 innings. Is help on the way? Plus, Heston Kjerstad takes a 97 mph FB to the ear, Brandon Hyde erupts, and benches clear. Paul and Ryan discuss that and more on The Bat Around!
