4/04/24	O's look to jump-start offense against Pirates. Half of Baltimore's four wins came on walk-off hits, but the Orioles will hope for some early offense when they open a three-game series with the host Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday. James McCann was Baltimore's latest hero, ripping a two-run single to left in the bottom of the ninth to lift the Orioles to a 4-3 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday. Jordan Westburg provided the late-game heroics two nights earlier, clubbing a walk-off, two-run blast. Games have been coming down to the wire because of an offensive lull that has seen Baltimore manage a total of 12 runs over its past four contests.

4/03/24	McCann has 2-out, 2-run single in 9th, Orioles emerge from 5-hour rain delay to beat Royals 4-3. James McCann hit a two-out, two-run single in the ninth inning and the Baltimore Orioles emerged from a five-hour rain delay to beat the Kansas City Royals 4-3 on Wednesday night. Baltimore trailed 3-0 before scoring twice in the eighth against the Kansas City bullpen, which wasted a masterful performance by starter Cole Ragans. It was 3-2 in the ninth when Royals closer Will Smith (0-2) walked Ryan Mountcastle and gave up a single to Anthony Santander. Source: https://sports.yahoo.com/mccann-2-2-run-single-010...
12/14/23	Orioles 2024 opening day roster projection: Craig Kimbrel addition alters pitching outlook. This time last year, a projection about the Orioles' opening day roster would've been a futile exercise. James McCann wasn't acquired until late December, and Danny Coulombe was a Minnesota Twin up until the end of spring training. McCann didn't technically make the opening day roster because of injury, and neither did Grayson Rodriguez, Ryan O'Hearn and Yennier Cano — three players who were pivotal to the club's 101-win campaign.

Yenier Cano retired Enmanuel Valdéz on a game-ending flyout that stranded the tying run on third as Boston’s ninth-inning rally fell short, and the Baltimore Orioles hung on to beat the Red Sox 13-12 behind a pair of James McCann home runs for their seventh straight win. Closing in on its first postseason berth in seven years, the Orioles opened leads of 7-2 in the fourth, 12-6 in the seventh and 13-9 in the ninth as Aaron Hicks and rookie Gunnar Henderson hit three-run homers and Jordan Westburg had a solo shot.

8/19/23	James McCann is clutch as Orioles top Athletics in 10 innings. James McCann drove in three runs, two with a 10th-inning single as part of a five-run uprising, and the Baltimore Orioles outlasted the host Oakland Athletics 7-2 on Saturday night for a second consecutive win in their three-game series. Ryan Mountcastle had an RBI single, Jordan Westburg a sacrifice fly and Austin Hays a run-scoring infield out in the 10th before McCann, who had homered earlier in the game, landed his two-run single in front of A's left fielder Esteury Ruiz to give the Orioles a five-run cushion. Jacob Webb mopped up in the last of the 10th in a non-save situation, striking out three in a row after loading the bases. Adrian Martinez (0-1), Oakland's fifth pitcher, took the loss, with two of his five runs allowed unearned. Source: https://deadspin.com/james-mccann-is-clutch-as-ori...
8/17/23	Ex-Mets catcher makes pitching debut. Orioles catcher James McCann found himself in a new spot on Tuesday. Getting the opportunity to take the mound wasn't a goal for the backstop, but he stepped up in the bottom of the 8th to help a taxed Orioles bullpen in the 10-3 loss to the San Diego Padres. According to the Baltimore Sun, he invoked the same advice he gives other position players who have had to step in to pitch. “I think I threw harder in the cage warming up than I did on the field,” McCann said, via Nathan Ruiz of the Baltimore Sun.

8/16/23	Orioles catcher James McCann took his own advice for scoreless pitching debut: ‘Throw it slow as you can for strikes’. Pitching the bottom of the eighth inning Tuesday in the Orioles’ 10-3 loss to the San Diego Padres, catcher James McCann threw 14 pitches. Only one of them exceeded 50 mph and nine of them were in the zone or put in play. Source: https://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/orioles/bs-sp-...
8/15/23	Orioles starter Jack Flaherty labors, catcher James McCann pitches in 10-3 loss to Padres. The Orioles find themselves atop the American League East largely because they are masters of the nail-biter. Games such as Tuesday night's blowout loss to the San Diego Padres have been uncommon, including those that end with them on the winning side. Baltimore's 10-3 loss, which featured backup catcher James McCann's first major league pitching appearance, left the Orioles at 74 victories. Despite a record 17 games above their opponent's, Baltimore's run differential is only seven better than San Diego's. Source: https://www.denverpost.com/2023/08/15/orioles-star...
