Jason Giambi of the New York Yankees extended his middle finger in the direction of Baltimore Orioles second basemen Brian Roberts following a hit. The reason Giambi flipped the bird was because on the previous at bat, Roberts fielded a grounder due to playing in a shift.
According to further reports, Giambi was only being […]
On Saturday night, Manny Ramirez hit his 500th career homer against the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. Ramirez, the star outfielder for the Boston Red Sox, becomes the 24th player in history to reach the milestone.
Against right-hander Chad Bradford, Ramirez hammered the first pitch and posed for what he knew was his 500th dinger. […]
While the New York Yankees aren’t winning many games this season, at least their manager is doing a good job getting ejected. I give Girardi a B+ for his eruption that led to his ejection against the Baltimore Orioles. You can see a video of the ejected Joe Girardi at the end of […]

(The New York Highlanders — aka Yankees — managed to lose […]

The full deal sees the O’s send southpaw Bedard to Seattle in exchange for center fielder Adam Jones, left-handers George Sherrill and Tony Butler, and right-handers Chris Tillman, and […]

Ah, this brings back memories. The Baltimore Orioles nabbed left-hander Matt Riley in the third round of the 1997 draft. I picked him up in a fantasy league in ‘99 on the strength of his 13-8, 3.03 performance at Single- and Double-A as a 19-year-old.
