About Me

Hey there! I'm Matt Weyrich, an Orioles beat reporter and social media personality for The Baltimore Sun.

I cover the day-to-day storylines of the Orioles and pitch in for other major sporting events in the region, publishing news stories, features and analysis pieces. I also host vertical videos for TikTok and Instagram that bring some of the biggest stories in Baltimore sports straight to our audience's social media feeds.

The Sun brought me aboard in January 2024 after I spent four years and a half years at Monumental Sports Network (previously NBC Sports Washington), for whom I covered the Nationals and NHL's Washington Capitals for two seasons apiece.

Born and raised in Northern Virginia, I grew up a D.C. sports fan with a passion for baseball. I graduated with a journalism degree from James Madison University (Go Dukes!) in 2019 and worked briefly as a news reporter in Charlottesville before returning to the DMV to cover my hometown teams.

I'm a member of the Baseball Writers' Association of America with experience covering a variety of sports and publishing to all major platforms. For a complete look at my professional profile, check out my LinkedIn page, follow me on Twitter/X at @ByMattWeyrich or visit my Instagram profile.
