Enddy Azocar since Orioles traded for him at deadline:

6-for-12 (.500 BA)
2 doubles
1 triple
4 RBIs

Azocar was seen as perhaps the 4th-best player the O’s got from the Red Sox in the Adley Rutschman trade. But he’s got a .909 OPS in High-A at age 19.

“Oh my, goodbye,” says the announcer after his Heston Kjerstad 402-foot homer.

Kjerstad is hitting .274 with a .752 OPS this season for Triple-A Norfolk.

Joseph Dzierwa is pretty good.

6 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 9 K, 16 whiffs

Dzierwa has a 2.07 ERA with 75 K/14 BB across 65.1 Double-A innings.

[Steve Melewski @Steveonbaseball]

What an outing. I expect he gets bumped to AAA to end his year.

[Chesapeake Baysox @BaysoxOfficial]

Joseph Dzierwa pitches a 1-2-3 first frame that ends with a strikeout!

"We grew up running on rocks barefoot, hunting and surfing, and it's those hobbies that unlock some things and strength that you can’t really teach.”

#Orioles No. 5 prospect Wehiwa Aloy showed off that power with his first two homers at the Double-A level: https://t.co/cKgIoYmc7a

@LamarismydAdley @hallofgoodpod The goosebumps just saying the words in my head, and Cruz bowling over backward when Hardy scored, a chef’s kiss.

Whether they belong in the Hall of Fame, the Hall of Pretty Good, or somewhere in between, I feel like I grew up during a golden era of shortstops.

Alex Hoppe’s first pitch as an Oriole is a 98 MPH bullet to the backstop that almost domed Vaughn Grissom

[Jacob Calvin Meyer @jcalvinmeyer]

The Orioles are only a half game back of the playoffs.

Only two teams (Texas and Cleveland) are between Baltimore (56-58) and a playoff spot.

The Orioles are now ahead of the Twins and Mariners — two teams they sold a player to at the deadline — in the wild-card race.

[Baltimore Orioles @Orioles]

More pinch-hit home run magic!
