Jackson Holliday hits team-leading 14th homer, but Orioles lose again thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…
A two-out double from Bo Naylor leads to Steven Kwan's RBI single off Colin Selby in the eighth. The Guardians lead, 3-2
Jackson Holliday's homer came on a slider from Slade Cecconi. Entering tonight, since June 10, Holliday has demolished that pitch. His slash line vs. sliders since June 10, before tonight: .320/.393/.640. AKA, a 1.033 OPS, before that homer
Jackson Holliday's solo homer to begin the sixth inning gives him 14 homers, the most on the Orioles

A leadoff walk from Zach Eflin in the fourth began a two-run slip-up. Eflin allowed a double to José Ramírez and a two-run single to Kyle Manzardo. The Guardians take a 2-1 lead
Jordan Westburg's leadoff double turns into a run after he advances to third on a groundout and scores on Ryan O'Hearn's sac fly. Baltimore takes a 1-0 lead in the fourth. Zach Eflin, meanwhile, hasn't allowed a baserunner in three frames
Cedric Mullins has scuffled this month, including a four-strikeout game last night. But he lifted a double down the right field line in the third inning against Slade Cecconi. But after Ramón Urías is out at the plate on a Jacob Stallings grounder, Mullins is picked off second
Coby Mayo is not in this Orioles lineup for Game 3 in Cleveland: Holliday DH Westburg 2B Henderson SS O’Hearn 1B Laureano RF Cowser LF Urías 3B Mullins CF Stallings C Eflin RHP
The Orioles officially activate right-hander Zach Eflin from the injured list to start tonight’s game. To make room, righty Brandon Young was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk
The Orioles are sellers. We selected the best fit for the players they might trade. thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…
Coby Mayo on what next week is: "I think everybody kind of knows the situation we’re in right now. I think there’s probably going to be some guys moved. But if you think about that too much, it’s going to take away your focus from tonight." Says players are day-to-day focused
Orioles outfielder Tyler O’Neill was out today with general soreness, Tony Mansolino said, which is why Dylan Carlson was called up. Mansolino expects O’Neill back promptly, perhaps Thursday
The Orioles fell to 12 games below .500, and all eyes should turn to 2026 thebaltimorebanner.com/sports/orioles…
