Just before taking the field for one final game against the Detroit Tigers, the Baltimore Orioles announced a small roster move involving their pitching staff. Per an official team release, the Orioles have claimed RHP Eric Hanhold off waivers from the New York Mets and designated RHP Ty Blach for assignment.
