The Orioles Miguel Tejada apologized Thursday for making what appeared to be an obscene gesture toward the stands during Wednesday's game in Toronto.

Tejada made a gesture after swinging through a pitch in the dirt from B.J. Ryan and being thrown out at first in the eighth inning. The Orioles lost the game 4-3.

"I want to apologize to everyone, especially to the Orioles fans and the fans in Toronto, for my action in Wednesday's game," Tejada said in a statement posted on the Orioles' Web site.
