This Orioles team has performed the worst when the bright lights and crowds have appeared

The bigger and louder the crowd, the worse this mostly young Orioles team seems to perform. That has to change in Texas. Luke Jones and Nestor head off to World Series-thirsty Arlington, Texas for Game 3 of the American League Division Series while the Ravens land in London licking their purple wounds from an awful loss in Pittsburgh.https://youtu.be/fHs92DT7yEo

First, the Orioles must survive Game 3 in Texas

With their backs against the wall and needing to win three in a row, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the Orioles hopes for a Game 3 victory in Arlington in the most hostile environment many of their youngest players have ever seen. Is there any hope to save the 2023 season?

A troubling meltdown and plenty of questions in Pittsburgh

With the game on the line, the Baltimore Ravens didn’t get it done against the lackluster Steelers, who were gifted a AFC North victory at The Confluence on Sunday. Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the lost opportunity and the mounting “communication” problems in a disturbing loss to their arch rival in Pittsburgh and headed for the silence of London.

Join us at Hollywood Casino Perryville on Sunday for Ravens brunch party and picks

Let Rick Dempsey tell you how the Orioles can win the whole thing

As busy as ever opening a new Baseball Warehouse in Columbia, the Orioles 1983 World Series MVP joined Nestor for a chat about the love of Baltimore baseball, the fun of fantasy camp in Florida and another championship parade for our long-suffering Birdwatchers.

Nestor on Orioles postseason: “This is why we built Camden Yards!”

When Dennis Koulatsos welcomed Nestor onto his WNST-AM 1570 weekly show (heard each Thursday 3-5p and Sunday 8a-noon) to discuss the biggest Baltimore sports weekend of this generation, the 32-year voice of Baltimore sports radio made it clear this was what was expected all along back in 1996 when the Ravens came to the Charm City. Stadium and parking conflicts in adjoining lots because the baseball team has earned a path to a World Series.

Trying to figure out this crazy league

Christian Horton of Hollywood Casino Perryville joins Nestor to make sense of Week 5 picks and point spreads after both went 8-8 in Week 4. On the season, Aparicio is 35-28-2 against the spread.

Once again, the Orioles have Magic to do

For two decades Charles Steinberg worked for the Baltimore Orioles and can recite the history of Orioles Magic because he was there when it happened. Checking in from his gig running the Worcester Woo Sox after a long trail of success with the Boston Red Sox, the native Baltimorean had some thoughts on the kindness of Brooks Robinson, warm memories of 33rd Street and the resurgence of the Oriole Way with the 2023 Birds.

A weekend to remember ahead in Baltimore

Pitching, pitching! It’s all about the pitching!

As the Baltimore Orioles prepare to take to the postseason for the first time since 2016, Luke Jones and Nestor prepare for an ALDS battle with the Texas Rangers and all arms on deck for Orioles pitching staff.

Are the Ravens ever going to throw the ball more?

In an easy victory over the Cleveland Browns, Lamar Jackson was a very efficient 15-of-19 throwing the football but Luke Jones and Nestor wonder if Todd Monken feels like he really needs to do more in the passing game. So far, so good.

All of that commotion down at the stadium is a good thing

Whether it’s Orioles playoffs, Pittsburgh week or a parking lot before Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks, it’s a week to remember in Baltimore. Leonard Raskin and Nestor discuss tickets, times, games and The Piano Man and Orioles playoff baseball downtown this week.

How much of this can you really blame on Lamar Jackson?

With the Ravens offense missing key starters at every level, Luke Jones and Nestor discuss the play of the $260 million quarterback and what Todd Monken – and the fans – expect from him on Sunday afternoons? Six years into the “experiment” of Eric DeCosta and John Harbaugh, Lamar Jackson running the football on an RPO is still the team’s best chance for success on any given play.

How much room do we have on the Orioles Bandwagon?

Our favorite Editor-In-Chief and social critic Max Weiss of Baltimore Magazine joins Nestor and Ricig at Koco’s Pub for a pre-October chat about the history and relevance of Orioles baseball in Baltimore. And her essay wondering just how many folks are coming back to Orioles Magic as postseason bunting looms at Camden Yards and the excitement grows.

Three was not a magic number for Harbaugh and Ravens in hideous loss to Colts

At the clock struck four ­– and with the dreaded and departed Colts of the Irsay family proving peskier than we thought – it was the Orioles who whittled their Magic Number down to three.

And of course, the GET NASTY flip sides took off and launched what would become WNST-AM 1570 on August 3, 1998.
