New Orioles’ right fielder Tyler O’Neill is known for flexing his power on Opening Day.<\/p>\n
Coming into the Orioles’ season opener in Toronto, the slugging outfielder had hit a home run every Opening Day since the 2020 season, when he was a member of the St. Louis Cardinals.<\/p>\n
O’Neill continued the tradition in his first Opening Day with the Orioles, mashing a three-run, opposite field home run off of Blue Jays’ right-hander Jose Berrios, extending the Orioles lead at the time to 5-0.<\/p>\n

The opposite field shot, which traveled 376 feet and left his bat at 106.1 miles per hour, scored Colton Cowser and Adley Rutschman, who had walked and singled, respectively.<\/p>\n
The home run gave O’Neill his second run of the game, as he had also scored in the second on Cedric Mullins’ RBI single.<\/p>\n
Orioles’ new slugger Tyler O’Neill continues his incredible Opening Day home run streak<\/strong><\/p>\n With his sixth straight Opening Day home run, O’Neill padded his historic streak. In 2024, when O’Neill cracked a Opening Day home run in Seattle as a member of the Red Sox, he became the first player in Major League history to homer in five straight Opening Days. Said O’Neill last season after the home run in Seattle: ”<\/p>\n A bunch of guys in the dugout, they were giving me big-time props when I came in. I was pretty fired up myself going around first base. It was such a whirlwind, honestly.\u201d<\/p>\n The impressive streak has carried through three teams (St. Louis, Boston, and now Baltimore) and several different ballparks.<\/p>\n He started it at Busch Stadium against the Pirates in 2020, and continued the streak the next season at Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati.<\/p>\n O’Neill did it to the Pirates at home, again, in 2022 before homering on Opening Day 2023 against the Blue Jays at Busch Stadium. O’Neill then added Seattle’s T-Mobile Park and Toronto’s Roger’s Centre to his list of ballparks in 2024 and 2025.<\/p>\n What makes the streak even more notable is the fact that O’Neill has struggled with injuries throughout his Major League career.<\/p>\n Despite the injuries, however, O’Neill always manages to be healthy – and apparently very locked in – on Opening Day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" O’Neill also continued his streak of six straight Opening Days with a home run New Orioles’ right fielder Tyler O’Neill is known for flexing his power on… <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":45225,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-45221","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"\n
