Her husband, Tim Caprio, accepted the award on her behalf.
Police say the 29-year-old officer was investigating reports of suspicious activity in Perry Hall on May 21 when one of the suspects drove at her and ran her over.
Four teenagers have been charged with her murder.
The night before, the Orioles paid tribute to The Capital Gazette shooting victims by placing five lilies at the press box seat reserved for the newspaper and holding a moment of silence before the game.
