Summary
This one will drive you crazy. The Orioles fall 4-3 in 10 innings to the Nationals in a game that had everything — dominant pitching, late offense, and a brutal ending. Luke Slabaugh breaks it all down on the Orioles Postcast. Let’s start with Brandon Young: 23 swings and misses. 8 strikeouts. Just 2 runs allowed over 5 innings. The most whiffs by an Oriole through 5 innings in the pitch-tracking era (since 2008). His four-seam fastball and splitter were electric… and it still ends in a loss. Offensively, it was a grind. Chadwick Tromp somehow records 2 of the Orioles’ hits, and the lineup leaves 8 men on base while going 3-for-9 with runners in scoring position. Then came the late drama: Pete Alonso and Samuel Basallo deliver HUGE RBI hits in the 8th to tie it. But in the 10th… Ryan Helsley gives up the go-ahead RBI single to Daylen Lile. And the final gut punch? Bases loaded in the bottom of the 10th — and the Orioles come up empty. If it feels like one step forward, one step back… you’re not alone. Let’s break down what this means and why this loss hits harder than most. Subscribe for daily Orioles coverage, postgame reactions, and analysis that keeps you locked into Birdland.
