Orioles Clubhouse Podcast: Orioles @ Cardinals 08-25-26

Baltimore’s 13-1 rout of St. Louis was more than just a blowout win — it was a statement start to a three-city road trip. The Orioles scored early and often, with Pete Alonso blasting a three-run homer and Christian Encarnacion-Strand following with a 450-foot shot of his own. By the fifth inning, the game had turned into an Orioles showcase, with the lineup stacking hits and driving in runs in bunches. The win also highlighted a strong performance from Chris Bassitt, who earned his first victory since May 22 and turned in what Craig Albernaz described as a standout outing. After the game, the focus shifted briefly to the upcoming matchup, but the message remained the same: the Orioles must keep winning if they want to climb back into the postseason race.
