Orioles vs. Athletics, Sept. 13

The Orioles host the Oakland Athletics in the finale of a three-game series at Camden Yards.

3rd & 7 37yd

The last time the Orioles ran out a lineup without a single player with an All-Star appearance on his resume was Sept. 26, 2014 at Toronto, 633 regular season games ago. That still included future All-Stars Schoop and Markakis, but was under much different circumstances.

MRI on Cashner’s left knee revealed no structural damage. Buck said it’s unclear whether he makes next start. He’s been pitching through it. #orioles

Buck Showalter said Andrew Cashner has an MRI on left knee today, which has been sore but didn’t have structural issue. “He’s been able to pitch well with it, and sometimes not.” #Orioles

Cobb won’t pitch before next weekend on Sept 21. #orioles

On Adam Jones’ absence, Buck said again there are a lot of reasons that have been communicated with the player. Didn’t divulge, but “it’s been for all concerned tonight.” #Orioles

On Adam Jones’ absence of the lineup again, fourth time in six games, Buck said there are a lot of factors that go into the decision and that he’s been in good communication with Jones. #orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/13/2018 8:30:55 PM
Buck said the Orioles have advised a few minor league pitchers to keep throwing as the team tries to figure out who is going to pitch as they search for starters sans Cashner, Cobb. "It’s not like they’re sitting at home on the couch deciding whether to bet on the Ravens."

Buck Showalter said the Orioles are “trying to balance a lot of things” as Adam Jones was left out of the lineup again. One of them is fan service, but “it’s best for all concerned tonight.” bsun.md/2CUJtKu

Bundy retires the A's in order in the first on 10 pitches. #Orioles coming up in the bottom of the first.

Two on with one out in the first after bunt singles by Mullins and Villar. #orioles

Tim Beckham two-run single puts #Orioles up 2-0, Beckham caught in rundown to end the inning.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/13/2018 11:22:08 PM
Solo homer by Piscotty off Bundy, the 38th homer he's allowed this season. #orioles lead now 2-1.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/13/2018 11:29:32 PM
Bundy utilizing slider well tonight -- four swinging strikes on 10 sliders, Good sign for him because it hasn't been there last few times out. #orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/13/2018 11:46:11 PM
Bundy allows leadoff double to Martini and then strikes out next three batters. Seven of 15 swinging strikes on the slider, which is really good. #orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/13/2018 11:51:19 PM
Infield single by Andreoli scores Mancini. Anderson fields ball and awkwardly throws home. No play there. #Orioles up 3-1. Three of their six hits didnt leave the infield.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 12:09:54 AM
Valera singles up the middle to score another run. #Orioles up 4-1.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 12:10:46 AM
Michael Irvin thinks tonight's game will be a 60-plus-point affair. Don't know about that. The NFL Network types are leaning toward the Bengals and lower-scoring game. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 12:16:08 AM
Two hits past third base, a Semien double past Nunez and a Martini single over Nunez, plate an Oakland run in the 5th. #Orioles lead now 4-2 with one out in the 5th.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 12:25:32 AM
Too early to complain, but when you run against a good defense on second-and-10, you're going to go three and out on the first possession. These ain't the Bills. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 12:26:12 AM
Huge inning for Bundy in the fifth. After giving up a run early, strikes out Phegley and Laureano to limit the damage. #Orioles up 4-2 in the 5th.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 12:31:25 AM
Well, Janarion Grant appears to have used up his two strikes. John Harbaugh has no patience for ball insecurity. Bet you'll see somebody else back there on the next kick. #ravens

#Orioles giving away these replica BP caps to the first 20,000 15 and over at Sunday’s game. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DnA82PgX4AA-r_U.jpg

Wow, what a terrible way to start. Three-and-out on first possession. Fumble on punt return, though not lost. Interception on first play of next possession. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 12:37:43 AM
C.J. Mosley just got taken off the field on a cart. Could be a disastrous loss. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 12:39:07 AM
Just as total meltdown in the first five minutes of the game. Everything that could go wrong for the Ravens did. Now, we'll see how they respond to adversity, of which there was none on Sunday. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 12:43:29 AM
So, what do I know. Janarion Grant was out there for the kickoff and had a nice return. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 12:44:45 AM
Given the frustrated Dylan Bundy we've seen of late, this is a remarkable turnaround tonight. He's struck out eight over six innings, allowed just two runs. #Orioles lead 4-2.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 12:52:56 AM
Seven of Bundy's eight strikeouts tonight have been on the slider. #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 12:54:06 AM
A.J. Green is doing what A.J. Green does, especially to the Ravens. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 12:56:03 AM
Don C. wants to know what’s up with C.J. Mosley: No announcement yet, but when a guy gets carted off the field, it’s seldom good. Looks like a knee injury. Ravens can only hope it’s not a serious one.

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 1:02:27 AM
#Orioles announce attendance as 11.714

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 1:04:58 AM
Charge four points of that touchdown to Terrell Suggs for a stupid hands-to-the-face penalty. This is a full-squad collapse. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 1:14:22 AM
Ravens had a total of 8 net yards on the first offensive play of their first-quarter possession. They also had an interception and a penalty. Not good. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 1:18:35 AM
Castro left two on with no outs for Fry in the eighth. Fry struck out Lowrie but walked Pinder. Now faced lefty Matt Olson. #orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 1:26:31 AM
Now comes the biggest possession of the game for the Ravens. The defense needs a stop right here to give offense a chance to put up a few more points by the half. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 1:28:03 AM
Fry walks in a run. #Orioles lead cut to 4-3 with on bases loaded walk to Pinder. Bases still loaded, one out and Givens entering a one-run game.

Givens gets out of the 8th, strands bases loaded by striking out Piscotty and getting Semien to fly out. #Orioles take 4-3 lead into the bottom of the 8th.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 1:36:40 AM
After #Orioles add insurance run on Jace Peterson's RBI double, Givens will remain in the game to pitch the ninth. O's have a 5-3 lead.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 1:52:34 AM
Breyvic Valera makes a great diving play on a ball into shallow RF that looked like it would drop. Big out. Two outs and runner at first instead of runners at corners and one out. #Orioles up 5-3.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 1:58:46 AM
#Orioles snap six-game losing streak, avoid sweep with 5-3 win over #Athletics . Bigger than that is that we saw the old Dylan Bundy.

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/14/2018 2:00:32 AM
So, on 4th and 2, you run a play that is designed for the running back to get the ball four yards from the line to gain. Huge whiff there. #ravens

by Peter Schmuck via twitter 9/14/2018 2:47:54 AM
How Dylan Bundy got his groove back. #Orioles #Athletics
