Orioles News

Kyle Bradish delivered a near-no-hitter in last night’s 5-3 victory over the Kansas City Royals, capturing the crowd’s admiration as he took a standing ovation into the seventh inning. The win helps the Orioles maintain a solid 4-3 record over the past week, despite the challenges posed by having nine players on the injured list. Meanwhile, the front office is clearly looking to the future, having selected high school outfielder Eric Booth Jr. with the No. 7 overall pick in this year's draft, aiming to replenish the roster with young talent. Yet, the undercurrent of frustration among fans is palpable as many have resigned themselves to the idea that playoff hopes are slipping away. With the season slipping past the halfway mark, the O's need to translate this recent productivity into a sustainable run to keep the fanbase engaged.
