Mark Reynolds was a trailblazer. He was striking out before it was the cool thing to do.
Colson Montgomery just set the record for most strikeouts in a single season with his 224th. He breaks Mark Reynolds mark which was set in 2009.

Chris Davis recorded 5 strikeouts on the day he wound up being the winning pitcher in Boston.
Rece Hinds recorded the 10th game with 5+ strikeouts at the plate in Orioles history (since 1954) tonight. Here were the previous 9:

Ok so which one of the self inflicted losses are we gonna point to when the Orioles finish one game back of the wild card?

EXTEND HIM. GIVE HIM ANYTHING. NAME THE CITY AFTER HIM. NAME YOUR CHILDREN AFTER HIM.
Pete Alonso is absolutely UNCONSCIOUS! His second homer of the game goes 471 FT 🤯

Reminder that @blink182 played through a hurricane. This is becoming an issue.
The National Weather Service is reporting a stronger and more updated westward track of the Nor’easter storm system.  Tides, floods, and high winds have prevented us from safely continuing the build of Oceans Calling Festival. Full statement:

The NFL on Fox is literally brought to you by Bud Light. Anheuser-Busch should pay the fines for Ferguson and Juszczyk.
Another round: Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson was fined $13,611 for what the NFL said was his “imitation of shotgunning a beer” Sunday vs. Washington that “constituted an offensive demonstration and could reasonably could be construed as being in poor taste.”

Despite the record, the O’s did improve on paper in 2026. They added leadership and more from Alonso, had surprising breakouts from CES, Blaze, Mayo, Young, a much improved rotation overall, and yet SOMEHOW finished far below expectations from last year’s disaster.

And now no Adley, Gunnar is suddenly a huge question, Cowser is a platoon at best, Holliday & Beavers didn’t take a step forward. Alby made horrendous in-game decisions all year. Still MANY roster holes to fill. With a possible lockout, it’ll be hard for any positives to progress

Just like in the field, Bordick made no errors in this rant.
Orioles Hall of Famer Mike Bordick RIPPING into the O's coaching staff, front office, and every other analytical dork around the league that has ruined the game of baseball:

Every Orioles win from now until Sunday will remind us of the incredibly stupid self-inflicted losses that were easy wins. If 5 of those reversed then we would be making plans for the playoffs. This sucks. But that’s baseball, Suzyn.

You mean Diary of a Wimpy Kid Night, Hello Kitty Night, or Anime Night didn’t catapult the attendance numbers?
Orioles' final 2026 season attendance is 1,829,252 (22,583 per game), good for 23rd in MLB. It marks the second-straight season Camden Yards will finish among the league's bottom 10 in attendance after it cleared 2 million in 2024.

This is gonna hit so hard
Working on a story to find the losses that cost the Orioles a playoff spot. I went through every loss to find games they either should have won or ones in which they made a major blunder that cost them the game. The goal was to find 10 games. I found 22.

The Orioles have eliminated the reigning AL Champs. I’m telling my kids this is was the ALCS.

When it’s all said and done, Alonso might be the best free agent signing the Orioles have ever made. He’s everything and more. But I can’t help but think how criminal it is that we can’t see this in the playoffs. Padding the stats is fun but man, it didn’t have to be this way.
Pete can't stop hitting homers! 💥

As disappointing as the O’s season has been, the Jays are about to miss the playoffs after reaching Game 7 of the WS last year. A major factor for both teams was their star players (Gunnar, Vlad) had career-low seasons. Eliminating a division rival is a small consolation prize.
The Blue Jays and Orioles each have an elimination number of 1. That means the loser of Game 1 of Wednesday’s doubleheader will be eliminated from postseason contention. Both teams could be eliminated by the end of the night.

I’m old enough to remember when losing one home game in a season was devastating.
The Ravens have now lost 4 straight games at M&T Bank Stadium. They’ve also lost 7 of their last 10 at home. That has to change.
