Orioles news: O’s officially eliminated

The Baltimore Orioles have been mathematically eliminated from the 2026 postseason following a Chicago White Sox victory against Kansas City. Despite signing Pete Alonso prior to the campaign, Baltimore failed to secure a wild card berth in the American League. General manager Mike Elias recently stated that he expects to remain with the Orioles and retain rookie manager Craig Albernaz for the future.

The Orioles conclude their season with a series against the New York Yankees at Yankee Stadium, beginning with a Friday doubleheader. Severe weather along the East Coast has led to Saturday's game being called off, while Sunday's contest also remains in jeopardy. The Yankees have already secured the top wild card spot ahead of the upcoming Wild Card Series.
