The Orioles drop BOTH Beltway Series matchups to the Nationals—and this one stings. A 6-4 loss that felt even worse than the score shows. Kyle Bradish came in red-hot with a 12 1/3-inning scoreless streak… and then it unraveled fast. Five walks, a big third inning, and one brutal defensive mistake that flipped everything.

We break down the moment that changed the game: a routine grounder turned into a spiked throw at third that gifted Washington a critical run. Add in a Luis Garcia Jr. two-run double and suddenly the Orioles were chasing all night.

Offensively, Pete Alonso and Jackson Holliday delivered clutch two-out, two-run homers—but it wasn’t enough to overcome the damage.

If you’re frustrated, you’re not alone. Let’s talk about what this loss actually means, what’s trending the wrong way, and what needs to change NOW.
