After impressing in Triple-A this season, Dylan Beavers has been promoted to the major leagues and will make his debut Saturday in Houston.

Jason Alexander, coming off two strong starts in a row, pitches against the Orioles as Houston tries to bounce back from near no-hitter.

It was the bottom of the order that dealt the big blow to the Jumbo Shrimp, as #9 hitter Jordyn Adams, optioned away from the Orioles not too long ago, delivered a go-ahead two-run home run in the fourth inning and drove in four runs in the game overall.

Orioles pitcher Brandon Young’s quest for MLB history ended with Ramón Urías’ infield single. But there’s a debate about whether it was a hit.

The Orioles have been held to four hits or fewer 22 times this season, tied with the Pirates for second most in the majors behind the Rangers’ 25. They’ve scored five runs or fewer in 12 straight games since Aug.

The Astros are in a heated divisional battle with the Mariners and the team will be missing its All-Star shortstop on Friday.

The Orioles are using custom-themed bats and cleats to highlight off-field interests and charitable causes during MLB Players’ Weekend.
