The Baltimore Orioles selected Berry in the 50th round of the 2009 MLB Draft, and offered him the opportunity to rehabilitate from Tommy John surgery in their organization. He signed rather than enroll at Oregon, receiving a $125,000 signing bonus. [2]

In 2013, Berry pitched for the Frederick Keys of the Class A-Advanced Carolina League, where he had an 11-7 win–loss record and a 3.85 earned run average in 27 games started.

[4] [5] In 2014, he pitched for the Bowie Baysox of the Class AA Eastern League, and appeared in the league's All-Star Game. [2] [6] The Orioles promoted Berry to the major leagues on June 6, [7] but demoted him the next day. [8]

Berry made changes to his pitching delivery in 2015, but after struggling through nine starts with Bowie, he returned to his original delivery. [9]
