Baltimore Orioles Finally Break Losing Streak Behind Adley Rutschman's 11th-Inning Homer
It has been seemingly forever since the Baltimore Orioles saw their victory column rise. Well, the end of their eight-game losing streak happened on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers. Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman clobbered a three-run home run in the 11th inning to spotlight a four-run outburst in the Orioles' 8-4 win. The team has had to weather a lot so far this season. Brandon Hyde was fired as manager on Saturday with third-base coach Tony Mansolino taking over on an interim basis. Injuries have decimated their pitching staff and those pitchers active have not performed well. All that, though, can be put in the rear-view mirror at least for one game. Baltimore took a 4-3 lead into the bottom of the ninth inning and hoped Félix Bautista could close it out. But Milwaukee's Caleb Durbin scorched a two-out single to tie things up at 4-4. Bautista was pitching on back-to-back days for the first time this year after missing the 2024 season with Tommy John surgery, The Associated Press reported. Advertisement Both teams traded runs in the 10th inning behind RBI singles from the Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn and the Brewers' Jackson Chourio. Baltimore hitters find a way to reach Brewers' Tyler Alexander in the 11th inning Baltimore, though, rocked Brewers reliever Tyler Alexander (2-4) for their four-run outburst. Jackson Holliday's single scored automatic runner Heston Kjerstad from third base. He reached third on teammate Ramón Urías' infield single. Rutschman then delivered the big blow for the Orioles, slamming a three-run shot that just made it over the left-field wall. Orioles reliever Seranthony Domínguez worked a solid 11th inning, getting the Brewers out in order for his first save this season. Relief pitcher Bryan Baker (3-0) gave up that 10th-inning run to Milwaukee but earned the victory. Advertisement O'Hearn had a stellar day at the plate, going 4-for-6 with two RBIs. Orioles teammate Gunnar Henderson also scored three runs in the win. The victory can start as a pick-me-up for a Baltimore team in desperate need of finding a winning path. After Wednesday's game, the Orioles traveled to Boston where they'll open a four-game series against the Red Sox at Fenway Park on Thursday. Cade Povich (1-3, 5.23 ERA) is scheduled to start for the Orioles against Boston's Lucas Giolito (1-1, 7.08 ERA).

Brandon Hyde survived Orioles' epic tanking – then the franchise failed him
Brandon Hyde survived Orioles' epic tanking – then the franchise failed him Show Caption Hide Caption CC Sabathia on entering the Hall of Fame and wearing a Yankees cap on his plaque CC Sabathia will be enshrined into the Hall of Fame this July and tells USA TODAY Sports why his plaque will feature him wearing a Yankees cap. Sports Seriously Technology and rules changes eventually brought down the Deadball Era. The steroid era was drug-tested into oblivion. And now, another of baseball's scourges is on its last, dying breaths. RIP to the Tanking Era, a particularly odious period of the game where extreme sucking and emaciated payrolls bred top draft picks and, eventually, a pivot to greatness. The Houston Astros were the godfathers of it, the Chicago Cubs adopted it and those franchises won consecutive World Series titles in 2016 and '17. One year later, an architect of the Astros' burgeoning dynasty was hired in Baltimore as general manager as the Orioles were coming off a 115-loss season. Yet Mike Elias was only just beginning to tank. ORIOLES FIRE HYDE: Baltimore ditches manager amidst ugly start to 2025 Like his headmaster in Houston, Jeff Luhnow, Elias stripped the roster to the studs and held the equivalent of multi-year open tryouts, producing grim baseball (108 and 110 losses in 2019 and 2021) and turning Charm City into a baseball ghost town. Oh, the fortunes turned. Those high draft picks turned to gold, with the 2019 draft combo of Adley Rutschman (the reward for finishing 30th) and Gunnar Henderson (gotta love the massive signing pool that comes with 108 losses) signaling brighter days ahead with their arrivals in 2022. A year later, the group won 101 games and the AL East, and Elias and his fellow Astros acolyte, Sig Mejdal, looked like they simply sprinkled some Old Bay atop the ol' Houston recipe for success. But tanking has its limits. Eventually, the cynical art of losing to win must be replaced by executive acumen, and ownership support. And Saturday morning, Elias admitted the Orioles don't have the goods. Oh, Elias still has his job. Yet in firing manager Brandon Hyde, his hand-picked dugout leader and gravel-voiced executor of this new Oriole way, Elias has put himself on an island. This is entirely his roster that staggered out to a 15-28 start and probably played its way out of playoff contention before Memorial Day. He has fallen on the sword at all appropriate times, including Saturday, when he said in a club-released statement that 'the poor start to our season is ultimately my responsibility.' And the Orioles' record – as well as their future prospects – are evidence that rebuilding is one thing, but building a great ballclub. An arms deficit Two things can be true: Elias, a fantastic scout who helped St. Louis and Houston stockpile championship cores, has his fingerprints all over an Orioles clubhouse that features three All-Stars 27 or younger: Rutschman, Henderson and infielder Jordan Westburg. Yet he's also the guy who, in assessing the club's second-half offensive swoon, fired a pair of hitting coaches only for the lineup to return even more flaccid this season, particularly with runners in scoring position, where its .192 average is last in the majors. And he's the guy who sent Hyde into battle with a pitching staff whose 5.31 ERA ranks 28th, and whose 'big investment' – 41-year-old Charlie Morton, whom the Orioles are paying $15 million – is now out of the rotation with an 8.35 ERA and the club sporting an 0-11 record when he throws a pitch. Certainly, both malfunctioning units can blame injuries for part of their woes. Zach Eflin, Grayson Rodriguez, Andrew Kittredge and Albert Suarez are on the IL, while Tyler Wells and Kyle Bradish are nursing arm reconstructions from a year ago. Westburg, Tyler O'Neill and Rookie of the Year runner-up Colton Cowser are or have been shelved from the lineup. But it was Elias who centered the revamped lineup around O'Neill, a muscular 29-year-old who's only managed to play more than 100 games twice in his career. And it was Elias who only offered outgoing free agent ace Corbin Burnes a four-year contract – albeit worth $45 million per year – and failed to replace him. Who last year burned a pair of decent trade chips in Connor Norby and Kyle Stowers – the latter with 10 homers and a .938 OPS in Miami this season – for lefty starter Trevor Rogers, whose history of injury and ineffectiveness was visible to the layman. The pitching paucity has been exacerbated by the club's draft strategy under Elias, which is, essentially, don't draft pitchers. The club did not draft a pitcher earlier than the fifth round in Elias's first three drafts, and just 10 of their top 50 picks in all six of his drafts were arms. It's not the worst strategy, especially when drafting elite bats has yielded a farm system often bursting with offensive prospects, one of which – infielder Joey Ortiz – was flipped for Burnes. Yet while Elias once turned Dylan Bundy into Bradish, similar deals for Cade Povich and Chayce McDermott have not yielded rotation stability. And just one pitcher drafted in the Elias regime has thrown a major league pitch. Last of their kind The regime change from the Angelos family – which hired Elias and Co. – to David Rubenstein was supposed to bring peace and prosperity to the ballclub. But the GM and owner's first winter together was a bad one. Both their legacies are still just in the early stages. Yet in his first winter with cash to burn, Elias seemed bent on a strategy that's addled many analytics-inclined GMs: To strike the most optimal deal or no deal at all. As Dodgers GM Andrew Friedman once said, sometimes you need to be a little irrational. Meanwhile, Rubenstein couldn't get to spring training without tossing 'salary cap' into his vernacular. All this came to roost for Hyde. He handled the dark years with grace, learning on the job but proving the rare rebuild manager who survives to see brighter days. He was the AL's Manager of the Year in 2023, an honor earned through 101 wins yet also a nod to steering through the dark times. Meanwhile, Elias will be tasked with hiring Manager No. 2, and the first of the Rubenstein era. Elias and Hyde seemed to work well together, and perhaps dismissing the manager was simply part of the life cycle of both jobs. But as that reality settles in, just one question: Was it all worth it? The Orioles put such an ugly product on the field that MLB and the players' union essentially legislated such maneuvers away: They installed a draft lottery in time for the 2023 season, so that there could be no consecutive top five picks, no award for sustained losing other than taking a number toward the back of the losers' line. That, more than anything, will kill tanking. So consider these Orioles the last of an era, enjoying the bounty of four top-five picks in as many years – yet without a playoff win to show for it. Saturday, Hyde lost his job for it. Now, Elias will go it alone in his quest to prove he can do more than lose to win.

Orioles fire manager Brandon Hyde after 15-28 start in 7th season
The Baltimore Orioles have fired manager Brandon Hyde after their 15-28 start to the 2025 season and last-place standing in the American League East. Third base coach Tony Mansolino will take over as interim manager, the team announced. He's been on Baltimore's coaching staff since the 2021 season. "The poor start to our season is ultimately my responsibility," Orioles general manager Mike Elias said in a statement. "Part of that responsibility is pursuing difficult changes in order to set a different course for the future. I want to thank Brandon for his hard work, dedication and passion after all these years, and for returning the team to the playoffs and winning an AL East championship." STATEMENT FROM THE ORIOLES — Baltimore Orioles (@Orioles) May 17, 2025 With a young, talent-rich roster, the Orioles broke out for 101 wins during the 2023 season (for which Hyde was named AL Manager of the Year) and appeared to be the new power in the AL East that could challenge the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox in the division. Since then, however, Baltimore has fallen short of those expectations. Last season, the Orioles won 91 games and finished three games behind the Yankees. But this season, they have arguably been the most disappointing team in MLB, off to a 15-28 start that has them deep in last place, 10.5 games out of first place. Baltimore has lost four consecutive games following Friday's loss to the Washington Nationals and 10 of their past 12. The Orioles' poor start continues a slide to finish last season during which they lost their lead in the AL East and had to settle for a wild-card spot. Hyde's dismissal comes two weeks after Elias said that he was "very confident" in his manager, who was in his seventh season. Elias also insisted that Hyde had not lost the support of the players. As is often the case with managerial firings, Hyde isn't solely at fault for the Orioles' failures. Elias said the team's performance is ultimately his responsibility and several of his decisions have contributed to Baltimore's subpar showing. His most glaring oversight has been the team's pitching staff, which lacks an ace at the top of the starting rotation after Corbin Burnes (15-9, 2.92 ERA last season) left in free agency. Not re-signing Burnes was exacerbated by filling the rotation with Charlie Morton (8.35 ERA) and Kyle Gibson (13.11), both of whom have pitched poorly. The pitching staff has also been hurt by injuries to Kyle Bradish, Zach Eflin and Grayson Rodriguez. The Orioles' 5.31 team ERA is last in MLB. Baltimore's lineup has also been affected by injuries, notably to outfielder Colton Cowser, last season's AL Rookie of the Year runner-up who's been sidelined with a fractured left thumb. Tyler O'Neill has also missed time with neck inflammation and shoulder discomfort, while Jordan Westburg suffered a strained hamstring. In addition to Hyde, the Orioles also fired major league field coordinator and catching instructor Tim Cossins, who had been part of Hyde's staff for the past seven seasons. Both joined the Orioles from the Chicago Cubs organization, where Hyde was a bench coach, first base coach and director of player development from 2013-18. Hyde, 51, ends his tenure in Baltimore with a 421-492 record (.461 winning percentage), three winning seasons, a division title and two postseason berths. (However, the Orioles didn't win a game in either of the past two postseasons.) He is the third MLB manager to be fired this season, following Derek Shelton by the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Colorado Rockies' Bud Black.

Baltimore Orioles makes shocking decision of firing manager Brandon Hyde
Baltimore Orioles makes shocking decision of firing manager Brandon Hyde (Image Source: Getty) The Baltimore Orioles are already leading the scoreboard from the bottom, for which the management is doing everything it can to save the season, even if it means firing their manager, Brandon Hyde . The Orioles management released the statement over X, giving a shock to many Orioles fans. But what led to this sudden dismissal? Brandon Hyde's record as the Baltimore Orioles' manager The year 2025 seems to be the worst for the Baltimore Orioles, as they proceed with 15-28 and an ERA of 5.33, both of which are not looking good for the team. To make things right, Orioles' management decided to fire Brandon Hyde from the managerial position. The news came as a shock to many, as fans were not expecting the management to make such a harsh decision regarding the manager who led the team to remarkable victories, which also included an AL East Championship. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Her body cannot endure this level of pain; please help her. Donate For Health Learn More Undo Hyde joined the Orioles in December 2018. During his tenure as the Orioles' official manager, Hyde has led the team to various victories. Till date, his stats remain 421-492, which also includes a Manager of the Year award in 2023, the year when the Orioles won 101 matches. His contribution to the team has been remarkable, and him getting fired is not only shocking for fans, but also raises questions as to who should be blamed, and whether putting the managers as scapegoats is right or not.

The Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Orioles stated, 'As the head of baseball operations, the poor start to our season is ultimately my responsibility. Part of that responsibility is pursuing difficult changes in order to set a different course for the future.' He further went on to say, 'I want to thank Brandon for his hard work, dedication, and passion all these years, and for returning the team to the playoffs and winning an AL East Championship. His many positive contributions to this organization and to Baltimore will remain, and we wish he and his family the best.'
