I’m very sad to report that our buddy James passed away yesterday. For everyone who sent James baseball cards or well wishes, his family can’t thank you enough. A reminder that
@Orioles
fans are the best! Please keep James’ family in your thoughts and prayers.
To a Hall of Famer in every sense of the word. Proud to call you a colleague, broadcast partner and most importantly a friend. Congrats Scotty G on your induction into the Maryland State Athletic Hall of Fame!

Well it happened.
Got booted from the house on “girls night.”
Real life version of being “designated for assignment.”
Confident I will clear waivers and be back.
Happy Birthday to the Hall of Famer

@FrederickKeys
, Ryan was my manager. Great baseball mind, super easy to talk to, sneaky funny and the ultimate family man. Prayers to the Minors during this time. Rest easy brother.
After a courageous and hard fought battle I’m sad to say that Ryan lost his fight with cancer this afternoon. He truly was the best twin brother you can ask for. His family and I want to thank everyone for the prayers and support during this time. BOOMER SOONER..

@wbalradio
and the Orioles Radio Network!
Since joining the Orioles, one of my favorite parts of the job has been watching Gunnar play. The guy has limitless potential and will be great for so long. Not to mention he’s as good of a guy as you’ll ever meet. Never a doubt!
On our way to OPACY in the Hollander mobile! (Vehicle broadcast 1). Join us on
@masnOrioles
@98Rock
@wbalradio
and the Os Radio Network for all your local coverage!!
110 losses to 101 wins is something you just don’t see. Great tactician, awesome in the clubhouse and he lets me and
@BrettHollander
interview him everyday (a chore or a bonus depending on your point of view). Congrats Brandon!
Okay, I’m giving in.
@BrettHollander
is going to laugh and
@scorebook_bob
is not going to be happy (again). By popular demand, here is my scorebook from yesterdays 15-2
@Orioles
win over the Twins.
Disclaimers:
-My handwriting stinks
-Don’t try this at home
Introducing the news member of the Arnold/Eisele family! Meet my nephew, John James Eisele! A good fighting weight of 6 lbs, 9 ounces and ready to take on the world! Mom (and sister

The Baltimore Orioles begin its American League Division Series this Saturday! Here's how you can listen to the game thanks to
@98Rock
and WBAL NewsRadio:
Starting 2024 with a walk-off! Not to shabby! Thanks to everyone who tuned in to me
@realbenmcdonald
for the opener! Back at it tomorrow in Bradenton at 1:05
Walks up to a random couple taking wedding pictures, they have no idea who he is, he wished them good luck and then he played “frogger” back to the bus.
It may be only game
#20
but this will be tough to top.
Today was a reminder of just how good the
#Orioles
bullpen is when well rested: Fuji carved up the Mets lineup, Perez stranded the bases loaded, Irvin great in leverage and Bautista did what he does.
How sweep it is!
Albert Suarez his 1st
@Orioles
win and 1st since 2016, Craig Kimbrel his 423rd career save (now
#7
in MLB history) and O's now sole control of 1st place!
Verne Lundquist and his wife Nancy have been close friends of my aunt’s for decades. When my uncle passed, I got to spend some time with Verne the night prior. He’s an all time great in the broadcast booth but as equally amazing of a person. Congrats on an incredible run Verne!!
A happy birthday to my love
@SianStephan
! Your kindness, patience and incredible sense of humor makes every day special. I’m so lucky you’re in my life. Can’t wait to celebrate more with you!!
Outings like the one from Albert Suarez today is why you love baseball. Well over 6 yrs from his last MLB appearance and he nearly completes 6 innings while blowing his fastball by the Twins all afternoon. Amazing stuff.
#Orioles
John Sterling is one of a kind and a constant reminder to always be yourself on the air. John is a 1 of 1.
A few yrs ago, he greeted me with “Hello Geoffrey my boy!” and I won’t lie, that was pretty cool.
He and Suzyn have always been incredible to me. Enjoy retirement John!
From me, my incredible fiancée
@SianStephan
and my niece and goddaughter Harper, we wish you and yours a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and an awesome 2024!
Maybe a tough loss today, but
@realbenmcdonald
and
@MelanieLynneN
had a fun time during our cheesesteak crawl! Popular opinion or not, I still hold whiz is the go-to ingredient for any great cheesesteak
@masnOrioles
Camden Yards represents the best of what baseball has to offer: beautiful, welcoming, unique, iconic. A place every baseball fan needs to visit at least once. I’m so lucky it’s home. Can’t wait to see what is to come in the years ahead!
Almost won it. Tough finish, but let's not lose sight of 2 things:
1. Gunnar Henderson is one hell of a shortstop who made 1 bad throw. Sometimes it happens at the wrong time.
2.
#Orioles
scored 6 runs on 10 hits the last 2 games and went 3-for-28 with RISP on the series.
A happy birthday to my
@masnOrioles
and
@Orioles
Radio Network broadcast buddy
@MelanieLynneN
! The team will buy you a birthday cake if they don’t give you a win to broadcast today.
Absolutely amazing!! Have had 2 out of body experiences this yr:
-When I got engaged
-When I called the Adam Frazier double
Wild one wasn’t it
