The Orioles look to win another series with Tomoyuki Sugano on the mound.

The Orioles will look to secure another series victory this afternoon in Sacramento. The Birds let a winnable game slip away on Friday before bouncing back with a 7-4 win last night. Baltimore must take advantage of matchups against losing teams if it hopes to shed the same label, so today feels like a must-win game for the 26-37 Orioles.

Tomoyuki Sugano (5-3, 3.04 ERA) will start for the O’s after tossing a seven-inning gem against Seattle last week. Adley Rutschman will form the battery with Sugano after serving as the DH last night.

Jackson Holliday and Gunnar Henderson will sandwich Rutschman at the top of the order. Ramón Laureano will bat cleanup and play right field, and third baseman Ramón Urías will bat fifth. Colton Cowser will hit sixth and play up the middle.

The final three hitters are all fighting to keep their spots with injured players set to return next week. Coby Mayo will slot in as the DH, Emmanuel Rivera will play first, and Dylan Carlson will take left field.

Orioles lineup:

  1. Jackson Holliday 2B
  2. Adley Rutschman C
  3. Gunnar Henderson SS
  4. Ramón Laureano RF
  5. Ramón Urías 3B
  6. Colton Cowser CF
  7. Coby Mayo DH
  8. Emmanuel Rivera 1B
  9. Dylan Carlson LF

Starter: RHP Tomoyuki Sugano

Orioles minor league recap 6/9: Basallo goes yard, Tides throw a seven-inning no-hitter in doubleheader

Plus a rehabbing Tyler O’Neill, Jordan Westburg and Gary Sánchez had two hits apiece for Norfolk.

Triple-A: Louisville Bats (CIN) 6, Norfolk Tides 5 - F/7

The Tides and Bats played a scheduled doubleheader today, with Chayce McDermott getting the start. It’s been a bumpy ride for him since returning off the IL, and today was only marginally better. McDermott went 4.1 innings and allowed five runs, one scoring after he’d left when Cionel Pérez threw a run-scoring wild pitch. McDermott’s control is still off, clearly: he walked four, hit one, and allowed a two-run home run.

The rehabbing Orioles all had good days at the plate. Jordan Westburg went 2-for-3 and now has a 1.202 OPS in 28 AB’s at Triple-A. Gary Sánchez went 2-for-4, and Tyler O’Neill also had two hits. So did outfielders Dylan Beavers and Jud Fabian. Samuel Basallo’s was the biggest hit of the game: he hit a three-run home run and also walked and singled, to put his OPS at .952. He’s still just 20, but is it getting time for a call-up?

Box Score

Triple-A: Norfolk Tides 4, Louisville Bats (CIN) 0 - F/7

The Tides went to a bullpen game in Game 2 probably out of necessity, but they can’t have expected they’d get this. A combined slate of Roansy Contreras (3.0 IP), Grant Wolfram, Colin Selby, Kade Strowd and Yaramil Hiraldo (1.0 IP each) kept Louisville hitless over seven innings. Louisville struck out ten times and had just three baserunners on two walks (Contreras) and a throwing error by shortstop Jeremiah Jackson. Pretty complete dominance.

Beavers and Fabian flashed at the plate in both halves of the doubleheader. The Tides scored three runs in the first inning on a two-run double by Fabian and a bases-loaded balk. Beavers homered in the second to put his team up 4-0, and that’s where the box score stayed, thanks to Tides pitchers’ brilliant combined effort. Beavers went 3-for-4 in Game 2. Jackson, Basallo, Fabian, Livan Soto, Noelberth Romero and Fernando Peguero had a hit apiece. The rehabbing big leaguers got a rest in Game 2.

Box Score

Double-A: Chesapeake Baysox, Akron RubberDucks (CLE) - PPD (rain)

High-A: Aberdeen IronBirds 4, Hudson Valley Renegades (NYY) 1


This was a 1-1 tie entering the bottom of the eighth, but Griff O’Ferrall homered and Jake Cunningham hit a two-run double, scoring Vance Honeycutt and Austin Overn.

The IronBirds had ten hits, two apiece from O’Ferrall, Cunningham, and Carter Young. Overn went 3-for-3 and walked.

Starting pitcher Eccel Correa pitched six and a third scoreless innings. He allowed just two hits and three walks. The right hander has a 2.76 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 12 games. After Correa’s excellent outing, Kyle Virbitsky got the win with 1.2 innings with one run allowed, and Zane Barnhart shut the door in the ninth, earning his second save of the year.

Box Score

Low-A: Fredericksburg Nationals 3, Delmarva Shorebirds 1

It was a great outing for Cal State Fullerton product Evan Yates, who threw 4.2 innings and allowed just one run on five hits. He also struck out seven. The 20th round draft pick in 2024 has a 3.70 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 41.1 innings over 11 games, six starts, this season.

Alas for Delmarva, Adrian Heredia gave up two runs in the seventh on a HBP and two singles, and the offense was held to just three hits, one apiece by Luis Guevara, Maikol Hernández and Félix Amparo.
