Episode Details

This one hurts—and it starts with a performance that deserved better. ((ALSO, WE'RE CELEBRATING THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE LOCKED ON PODCAST NETWORK)) Brandon Young was outstanding again, ripping off his FIFTH straight quality start and going toe-to-toe with Logan Gilbert in a legit pitchers’ duel. He had command, presence, and swing-and-miss when it mattered… until the 7th inning flipped everything. Two singles. Two runs. Game gone. The O's lose 3-1. Photo: Stephen Brashear - Imagn Images But zoom out—this wasn’t just about one inning. The Orioles pitching staff issued SIX walks to a Mariners lineup that ranks just 17th in walk rate. That’s self-inflicted damage, and it showed up in the worst possible moments—especially the free pass to the 9-hole hitter Miles Mastrobuoni, who came around to score. On the other side, the offense disappeared after a promising first. The O’s made Gilbert work early (24-pitch first, Basallo RBI), then got completely shut down—16 straight retired, 19 total whiffs, and a fastball-heavy approach they never adjusted to. This is the Orioles Postcast with Luke Slabaugh—where we break down why Young deserved better, how the 7th inning unraveled, and the bigger issue with free passes that cost this team. If you felt that inning coming… you’re not alone. Let’s talk about it.
