Orioles Place Cedric Mullins on Injured List
Orioles Place Cedric Mullins on Injured List originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Baltimore Orioles announced Friday that they have placed outfielder Cedric Mullins on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to May 29, due to a right hamstring strain. Advertisement Mullins is the corresponding move to a deal that the Orioles made recently by signing Cooper Hummel. To make room for Hummel, Baltimore has placed Cody Poteet on the 60-day injured list. Mullins is having an off year, to say the least, as he is accumulating a slash line of .232/.324/.448. Along with a shocking and disappointing start to their season, the Orioles can not afford to lose someone like Mullins, as he becomes the 11th Oriole to hit the IL. There is no timetable for him at this moment. For the second time in just this week alone, Baltimore and the 30-year-old Hummel agreed to a Major League contract. Hummel had originally signed with Baltimore earlier in the week after opting out of his minor league deal with the New York Yankees, but was quickly designated for assignment the next day. The Orioles currently stand dead last in the American League East with a 19-36 record. The O's begin a weekend series Friday against the Chicago White Sox at home and look to improve on their last 10-game stretch, going 4-6 at that time. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on May 30, 2025, where it first appeared.

Zach Eflin shines, Orioles hold off late White Sox rally
May 30 - Zach Eflin pitched seven shutout innings and the Baltimore Orioles pieced together a sixth-inning scoring rally to defeat the visiting Chicago White Sox 2-1 on Friday. Gunnar Henderson and Ryan Mountcastle both had two hits for the Orioles in the opener of a three-game series between teams with the two worst records in the American League. Eflin (4-2) allowed four hits and a walk, while striking out six. Bryan Baker pitched a scoreless eighth and Felix Bautista survived the ninth for his ninth save. Bautista allowed a run, and the White Sox had two runners on base when Joshua Palacios struck out to end the game. Sean Burke (3-6) took the loss, allowing two runs in six innings on five hits, one walk and six strikeouts. Until Mike Tauchman's one-out double in the ninth, all of Chicago's hits were singles -- and Lenyn Sosa had two of them. The White Sox had trouble on the base paths as Baltimore catcher Adley Rutschman threw out Edgar Quero on a stolen base attempt and also was credited with a pick-off of Quero. Andrew Benintendi doubled in Tauchman with two outs in the ninth for Chicago's run. The Orioles, who've won four of their last six games, got going in the sixth when Rutschman singled and Gunnar Henderson doubled to put runners in scoring position with no outs. Mountcastle reached on an infield single without the runners advancing, and then Rutschman was thrown out at the plate on Ryan O'Hearn's fielder's choice grounder. Ramon Urias provided a sacrifice fly for the game's first run. The second run came on a double steal, with Mountcastle scoring from third base. It was Baltimore's first steal of home since August 2021. The White Sox went with Jared Shuster in the so-called opener role, working the first inning from the mound before Burke took over. Burke made through four innings unscathed until the Orioles got the two runs in the sixth. The game was moved up more than 2 1/2 hours to a late-afternoon start because of weather-related concerns in the evening. --Field Level Media

Eflin goes seven scoreless innings and Orioles beat White Sox 2-1
Zach Eflin allowed four hits over seven shutout innings and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Chicago White Sox 2-1 on Friday. Eflin (4-2) struck out six and walked one in his first scoreless outing this season while lowering his ERA nearly a run to 4.46. Ramón Urías broke a scoreless tie with a sixth-inning sacrifice fly off Sean Burke (3-6). Ryan Mountcastle then swiped home on a double steal, then left before the eighth inning with right hamstring discomfort. Bryan Baker worked a perfect eighth in a game originally scheduled to start at 7:05 p.m. that was moved up to 4:30 p.m. because of expected inclement weather in the area, before Felix Bautista gave up Andrew Benintendi's RBI double in the ninth then stranded two for his ninth save. Burke worked six innings after opener Jared Shuster worked an inning plus a batter as the White Sox fell to .200 (6-24) on the road. Chicago's Miguel Vargas singled and Benintendi walked to put two on with one out in the seventh. Eflin escaped by striking out Luis Robert Jr. swinging and Joshua Palacios Jr. looking, the latter on a 3-2 cutter that home plate umpire D.J. Rayburn said caught the outer corner of the zone. Eflin got within six batters of completing his fourth career shutout and his first since 2020. His last nine-inning shutout helped Philadelphia win 7-0 win at Kansas City on May 11, 2019. Chicago right-hander Davis Martin (2-5, 3.45 ERA) will try to extend his streak of quality starts to four on Saturday after yielding only five combined runs in his last three outings (20 IP). He faces Orioles right-hander Dean Kremer (4-5-, 5.02), who is looking for consecutive wins after pitching 5 1/3 scoreless frames in a 5-1 victory at Boston last Sunday.
