Orioles’ Pete Alonso led the AL in both home runs (43) and RBIs (113) during the 2026 season.
He is the 1st player in MLB history to finish as the RBI leader for a season in both AL and NL during his career.
He is the 6th player to win a HR crown in both leagues, joining Shohei Ohtani, Mark McGwire, Fred McGriff, Sam Crawford and Buck Freeman.

Two hours after it was supposed to be first pitch, and the Yankees still haven't put out a lineup. (They don't want to make roster moves unless they need to.)
Orioles-Yankees will not start on time, considering the tarp is on the field at Yankee Stadium and being held down by tractors because of how windy it is here.
The forecast continues to look bad for the rest of the day/night and into tomorrow.
Orioles lineup for Game 162 vs. Yankees. Heston Kjerstad gets a start.
1. Beavers - LF
2. Alonso - 1B
3. Henderson - SS
4. Mayo - DH
5. Encarnacion-Strand - 3B
6. Cowser - CF
7. Jackson - 2B
8. Kjerstad - RF
9. Narváez - C
Baz - SP

Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson on his down 2026:
"A couple games here and there, I’ve shown it’s still in there. It’s not a matter of it just disappearing one day. It’s just the game. ... I just didn’t make that adjustment that I needed this year."

Orioles’ Gunnar Henderson says he’s had a right wrist issue he’s dealt with for about half the season. Feels bat knob changes he made helped him get through it.
Not something he’ll need to get operated on. Just banged up and not something he wanted to use as excuse for season.
Rece Hinds recorded the 10th game with 5+ strikeouts at the plate in Orioles history (since 1954) tonight.
Here were the previous 9:
Dylan Beavers leads off the 9th inning with a home run -- his 9th of the season and his 2nd of today's doubleheader. (He hit his 1st career grand slam in Game 1.)
Orioles' Rece Hinds is 0-for-4 with 4 strikeouts tonight.
The 26-year-old is 4-for-65 (.062) with 38 strikeouts in 72 career MLB plate appearances vs. LHPs.
Later in the 6th inning, Orioles right fielder Rece Hinds could not haul in this fly ball, which resulted in a 2-run ground-rule double for the Yankees' Anthony Volpe:
Orioles LHP Josh Walker's scoreless streak is over.
The 31-year-old gives up a run for the 1st time since Aug. 2. He had tossed 18 2/3 scoreless innings over his previous 21 appearances since Aug. 6.
(Also, Rece Hinds commits an error on the play.)
Brandon Young's 2026 for Orioles:
3.56 ERA in 156 2/3 IP over 28 starts. 133 K's. 1.35 WHIP.
After not breaking with Baltimore out of camp, the 28-year-old RHP soon became the club's most consistent and reliable starters for a large chunk of the season.
A breakout year for B.Y.
