Orioles-Nationals 0823

The Orioles face the Nationals at Camden Yards.

3rd & 7 37yd

If I were to guess -- based on watching many pitchers grapple with shoulder issues -- I would say high probability Tillman will go on DL.

Trea Turner beats out a dribbler to Manny Machado, and the #Orioles -#Nationals blood rivalry continues. Can feel the tension.

Mark Trumbo singled to left to drive home Adam Jones with the first run of the game, then gets thrown out trying to stretch. #orioles

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/23/2016 11:39:40 PM
Trumbo's previous seven hits were home runs, but that single on a two-strike pitch was a good piece of hitting, as they say. #orioles

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/23/2016 11:41:04 PM
Matt Wieters tries to bunt twice, then lines a double to right that bangs around in the corner while Pedro Alvarez spins the bases. O's 2-0.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/23/2016 11:52:11 PM
Orioles manufacture a run without trying. Hardy moves Wieters over with a swinging bunt and Adam Jones beats out infield hit to score him.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/23/2016 11:57:39 PM
The #Orioles are winning 3-0 in the 2nd inning, all without the benefit of a home run.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/23/2016 11:57:41 PM
Nationals starter Renaldo Lopez needed 48 pitches to get through the first two innings. #nationals

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:00:01 AM
Second review of Trea Turner SB attempt. Both times called safe. First one called out on review. This one might be, too.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:08:59 AM
Trea Turner has spent at least ten minutes tonight waiting to be told he's been caught stealing. Seems cruel.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 12:10:19 AM
Call is reversed again. That might be an MLB first..two straight steals by same guy overturned consecutively.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:11:00 AM
Each time after the successful review, Kevin Gausman walked Jayson Werth. #dejavu

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:12:27 AM
Four runs in on eight hits, none of them home runs. Who even are the #Orioles ?

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 12:27:47 AM
Jonathan Schoop lines a double into the left field corner to score Chris Davis and the Orioles now have a 4-0 lead in the third inning.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:27:50 AM
Pedro Alvarez took a big swing at that 2-0 pitch, trying to become the sixth Orioles hitter with at least 20 home runs. #hammertime

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:30:04 AM
Instead, Alvarez takes a walk and the bases are loaded. Young Reynaldo Lopez has thrown 75 pitches and his next one could be his last.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:31:14 AM
Matt Wieters pops out to short left field -- no blood -- and leaves it up to J.J. Hardy to try and harvest this bases-loaded situation.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:33:08 AM
Hardy hits a squibber to Daniel Murphy and he lets it glance off his glove for an error that brings home two more runs. The O's lead, 6-0.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:34:04 AM
The #Orioles chase Reynaldo Lopez with six runs in 2+ innings, the last two of which come on an error.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 12:34:58 AM
Orioles came into this game with an 18-11 all-time record against the Nationals at Camden Yards. #interleagueintrigue

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:36:22 AM
Orioles are 3 for 8 with RISP, but one of those outs produced more runs than any of the hits.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:39:19 AM
Buck Showalter makes his third appeal and gets another call overturned. He's 3 for 3. Adam Jones ruled safe on a very close play.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 12:42:47 AM
With five shutout innings tonight, Kevin Gausman's August ERA is 3.14. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 1:13:22 AM
Early happy birthday to Cal Ripken, who will be 56 tomorrow. #HallofFame

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 1:22:11 AM
That will probably do it for Kevin Gausman, who has pitched seven shutout innings and is well over 100 pitches. #orioles

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 1:24:07 AM
Six shutout innings for Kevin Gausman, who allowed six hits and walked two with 2 Ks on 110 pitches. If he's done, ends day with a 3.92 ERA.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 1:24:32 AM
Let's try that again. Kevin Gausman probably is done for the night after pitching six scoreless innings. Well over 100 pitches.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 1:25:53 AM
Adam Jones has equaled a career high with four hits tonight. He has had four hits in a game three times this year and 19 times overall.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 1:30:33 AM
Two other teams before #Orioles tonight had three successful challenges in one game this season: #Rockies (4/9) and #Mets (7/26).

Vance Worley, a worthy candidate for Chris Tillman's spot Thursday, instead gets the 7th inning of this 6-0 game. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 1:37:21 AM
Said Vance Worley has allowed four singles to open the inning, resulting in one run and another TOOTBLAN for the Nationals. #Orioles up 6-1.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 1:44:02 AM
Home run, Chris Davis. He got to 30 relatively quickly after in the low-20s for a while. #Orioles lead 8-1 in the 9th.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 2:14:33 AM
#Orioles win, 8-1, to take both at Camden Yards from #Nationals . 6 shutout from Gausman. HR (30) for Davis. 4 H for Jones. They are 69-56.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 2:20:27 AM
Orioles now have a 19-11all-time record against the Nationals here at Oriole Park. Series moves to Nationals Park tomorrow night.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 2:23:29 AM
Showalter says Tillman will likely go on DL, have cortisone shot in shoulder. Same discomfort as before. #Orioles

by Jon Meoli via twitter 8/24/2016 2:40:28 AM
Buck predicts Tillman will go on DL.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 8/24/2016 2:42:28 AM
#Orioles announce Ubaldo Jimenez will start Thursday in Chris Tillman's place vs Nationals.
