Orioles trying to handle being hurt again – School of Roch The Orioles’ unending string of injuries is another sign that something wonky might be going on behind the scenes. Is there clubhouse leadership among the Orioles? | MAILBAG – BaltimoreBaseball.com Pete Alonso and Chris Bassitt are two well-respected leaders, and I’m sure they’ve got a lot of respect in the locker room. Of course it would be nice if they were both playing a little better, particularly Bassitt. Jon Meoli: The Orioles typically don’t waste good starts. They just need a lot more of them. – The Baltimore Banner When the O’s pitch well, they generally win. Who’d have thunk it?
Is today your birthday? Happy birthday! The two former Orioles born on this day are catcher Guillermo Rodríguez (48) and left-hander Eric DuBose (50). On this day in 1991, England’s Queen Elizabeth attended an Orioles game at Memorial Stadium during her U.S. visit. The queen, along with President George H.W. Bush and their spouses, greeted Orioles and Athletics players in the O’s dugout before the game and took in two innings of action before leaving the ballpark. It was the queen’s first, and by all accounts last, baseball game (if you don’t include *The Naked Gun*).
On May 15, 2005, the Orioles beat the White Sox in Chicago, 6-2. O’s ace Érik Bédard continued his fantastic start to the season, tossing his fifth straight start of 7+ innings and two or fewer earned runs, a streak that ultimately reached six in a row. Solo homers by Carl Everett and Jermaine Dye were the only runs he allowed in his seven innings of work. Meanwhile, veteran catcher Sal Fasano made his Orioles debut and went 2-for-4 with a home run, and struggling infielder David Newhan also hit his first dinger of the year. The Orioles’ 11 hits were split among nine different hitters in a well-balanced offensive attack. The win improved the O’s to 11 games over .500 at 24-13. Let’s not talk about how that season eventually ended up.
