Summary
Dean Kremer got rocked, and the Orioles paid the price in a 9-7 loss. In his fourth start of the season, Kremer serves up FOUR solo home runs as the Cubs turn this one into a long night early. Pete Crow-Armstrong crushes the splitter twice, Michael Conforto and Carson Kelly go back-to-back, and suddenly the O’s are buried. And it didn’t stop there—Grant Wolfram pours gasoline on the fire with a brutal outing, uncorking a wild pitch and then giving up a 3-run bomb to Seiya Suzuki that completely blows the game open. Offensively, there were real signs of life. Pete Alonso launches his 20th homer of the year (before the All-Star break), continuing his massive impact in Baltimore. Then the bats wake up in the 7th and 8th—Coby Mayo delivers a pinch-hit solo shot, Tyler O’Neill goes deep TWICE off the bench, and Taylor Ward adds an RBI knock to extend a rally and make it interesting. But the early damage was too much to overcome against Colin Rea and the Cubs. If you’re an Orioles fan, you felt this one. Let’s break it all down—what went wrong, what it means, and where this team goes next. Subscribe for daily Orioles coverage, game breakdowns, and real talk you won’t get anywhere else.
