David Hess pitched six scoreless innings and Trey Mancini tied a career high with five RBIs in the Orioles’ 7-0 win over the Blue Jays on  Monday night at Camden Yards.

Two defensive breakdowns on the infield's left side were the difference in Friday night's 8-7 loss to the Blue Jays.

The Orioles hit four home runs, including three in the final two innings, to come back from a five-run eighth-inning deficit, but lost, 8-7, to the Toronto Blue Jays in 10 innings on Aledmys Díaz’s walk-off single off left-hander Paul Fry.

The Orioles managed just five hits against Toronto pitching while Andrew Cashner gave them a chance to win Friday night.

Orioles right-hander Andrew Cashner quickly developed the reputation with the Orioles of someone who will do anything to win. He stuck his foot in front of a 93-mph ground ball to show that Tuesday en route to seven shutout innings against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Dylan Bundy recorded his third quality start in a row to open the season in the Orioles' 7-1 loss to the Blue Jays.

Adam Jones was called out for running inside the baseline on a play that would have given the Orioles the lead in the sixth inning of Monday night's series opener against the Toronto Blue Jays.

The national narrative that developed after the Orioles' dramatic loss in Tuesday night's wild-card game was what the late, great broadcaster Howard Cosell liked to call "a piercing look into the obvious." Orioles manager Buck Showalter lost his magic touch at just the wrong moment — when God and a national television audience was watching.

Mike Wright hasn't had many opportunities to prove his worth in the Orioles starting rotation. Sixteen days into the season and Wright was stepping on the mound Tuesday for just his second start, his scheduled starts postponed twice because of weather and pushed back one other time. And even though he posted a quality start in the Orioles' 4-3 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, Wright might already be pitching to save his spot.

The Orioles will participate in the qualifying offer process this season to ease the pain of possibly losing some of their big-ticket free agents.

Orioles reliever Darren O'Day didn't pitch in Tuesday's All Star Game, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have an on-field moment worth crowing about. "I robbed a home run at the wall in batting practice," said O'Day, who said he shagged a would-be homer by Los Angeles Angels outfielder Albert Pujols. "That was one of my goals."

I¿ve been intrigued by reliever Chaz Roe since spring training. I assumed he was just a guy to absorb innings in the spring and may not even make the Triple-A roster if he didn¿t pitch well.

After taking a tie game into the bottom of the eighth, the Orioles were on the brink of disaster as reliever Darren O¿Day loaded the bases with no outs. Somehow, O¿Day escaped the inning without allowing a run, and the Orioles rallied for three runs in the top of the ninth to give them a 5-3 win over the Jays in front of a sellout crowd of 46,018.

While Dan Duquette's current role as the Orioles' top baseball executive is a powerful one, a move to becoming the Blue Jays' team president and chief executive officer would be a clear promotion.

Nick Markakis on Wednesday agreed to terms on a four-year, $44 million deal with the Atlanta Braves, according to industry sources.

The Orioles haven't given up on re-signing right fielder Nick Markakis, or as executive vice president Dan Duquette puts it: "We're still working on it. It's in process for the Orioles." But there's no question now that the competition is on.

Nobody should be surprised that the Orioles' American League East competitors are driving the free-agent market right now. That's not exactly a new concept, and it isn't necessarily reason for alarm.

The competition for the reserve catcher role may not be the most compelling story in spring training for the Orioles, but it was very much on display in Monday¿s 7-6 victory over the host Pittsburgh Pirates at McKechnie Field.
