[Goober Noodles]

I'll be chasing my whiskey with haterade tonight. I want tears.

[andrewochs615]

Hey I posted in the other thread somewhere in the Orioles talk forum but the game is on ESPN and ESPN 3 for those of you who are not in MASN range or don't have tv access. Just a heads up cause I just saw someone above mention mlb.com

[Hank Scorpio]

I really wish we had someone other than Simon going tonight.

Really wish.

[weams]

I really wish we had someone other than Simon going tonight.

Really wish.

We have 15 pitchers ready to go tonight. If we get three innings out of Simon, we can go matchups for every other out

[Hank Scorpio]

Do you think Buck will have a quick hook and treat this like a playoff game?

[Oriology]

Let's go O's!

[andrewochs615]

Here we go!

[Goober Noodles]

Do you think Buck will have a quick hook and treat this like a playoff game?Friggin hope so!

[Goober Noodles]

26 to go.

[Goober Noodles]

Good to see Simon attacking the zone early. 25 to go. :D

[andrewochs615]

102 jeezeeee

[fishbowlguy]

Thought i would stop in for the last official game thread of the year.... Sawx fans tears are soooooo tastee.....

[Hank Scorpio]

LOL John Hirschbeck. WTF are you looking at?

[RavNMadMan]

CAN'T WAIT (in my Bart Scott voice). Sorry, posting on my phone so I can't post lineups.

Yes indeed Rick....the word has been given. Our most relevant win of the season (hopefully).

[El Gordo]

LOL John Hirschbeck. WTF are you looking at?Obviously his navel.:angryfire::cussing:

[andrewochs615]

Dino!!!!!

[Oriology]

Nice...Alfredo's breaking stuff looks off, but his fastball seems on.

[RavNMadMan]

24 to go and counting.....

[crissfan172]

LOL John Hirschbeck. WTF are you looking at?

A Red Sox player in the batter's box of course.

Luckily it only cost him 4 pitches.

[andrewochs615]

Last night of watching these same dumb commercials for awhile lol

[weams]

A Red Sox player in the batter's box of course.

Amazing. Some things never change.

[Oriology]

Yankees 1, Rays 0

[crissfan172]

Good job JJ! Let's bring him home, boys.

[crissfan172]

Even Trea's not delusional enough to think we're only a Prince away from the playoffs.

[Goober Noodles]

Markakis was not amused by that call.

[RavNMadMan]

wasted opportunity there.....

[Oriology]

David Price throws 28 first inning pitches for TB.

[Sanfran327]

Last night of watching these same dumb commercials for awhile lol

You grow to miss them. Boy, this is a sad day.

[crissfan172]

Lots of scumbag bandwagoners out there tonight I see.

[El Gordo]

David Price throws 28 first inning pitches for TB.Unearned run. Zobrist error.

[Sanfran327]

Gidp??

[weams]

Thorne: "Jay Dee Doo"

[Sanfran327]

Good-ness. I might not be able to handle an actual playoff game.

[Sanfran327]

RH Wieters up next. 1-0 good guys in about 3 minutes.

[crissfan172]

That's why I prefer the curveball to the slider. A hanging curveball (as long as it's not flat) gets popped up if it's up in the zone. A hanging slider ends up in the seats.

[RavNMadMan]

RH Wieters up next. 1-0 good guys in about 3 minutes.

I hope you're right

[Webley Webster]

Gary Thorne just referred to this as "the final month of September." Who does he think he is: Nostradamus?

[andrewochs615]

damn!!

[RavNMadMan]

Damn close.......

[crissfan172]

Ok AJ...I'm assuming you can steal on Lester. I mean...he does pitch for the Red Sox.

[crissfan172]

damn!!


Damn close.......

Come on guys. Did you really think he was hitting a change-up out to the opposite field? :)

[Oriology]

Reynolds moonshot.

[RavNMadMan]

Come on guys. Did you really think he was hitting a change-up out to the opposite field? :)

Wishful thinking.....

[crissfan172]

RH Wieters up next. 1-0 good guys in about 3 minutes.


Reynolds moonshot.

Maybe you guys should start predicting outs. :p

[andrewochs615]

Come on guys. Did you really think he was hitting a change-up out to the opposite field? :)

Got tricked by the camera lol

[Sanfran327]

I am hoping for a win tonight for the simple fact that I want this club to be chomping at the bit for the 2012 season to start.

[crissfan172]

Thorne can't decide how he wants to pronounce Simon's name tonight. Back and forth, back and forth.

[Don Quixote]

Let's go pink hat!

[Goober Noodles]

Well this isn't a good start. Come on Simon. Don't get behind...

[Don Quixote]

I hope the boos emerge victorious.

[weams]

I am hoping for a win tonight for the simple fact that I want this club to be chomping at the bit for the 2012 season to start.

Get someone up!

[Oriology]

Start the pen.

[Don Quixote]

I hate that damned mole rat.

[Don Quixote]

Didn't read prior posts...Yankoffs scored one in the first, up 1-0 in the top of the second.

[weams]

I hate that damned mole rat.

Laser show!

[crissfan172]

Big DP there. They still need to get the third out.

(Walk Gonzalez PLEASE)

[Don Quixote]

Laser show!

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to weams again.

[Oriology]

Tex grand slam... 5-0 Yankees...c'mon O's!

[crissfan172]

Oh no...T-bag just hit a grand slam...

[andrewochs615]

ugh yankees leading 5-0

[PrivateO]

Red Sox fans cheering the Yankees to win.

Oh, the irony.

[Hank Scorpio]

That is just disgusting that MARK F'ING TEIXEIRA HITS A GRAND SLAM TONIGHT.

Hahahaha of course he does.

[Sanfran327]

Tex grand slam... 5-0 Yankees...c'mon O's!


Oh no...T-bag just hit a grand slam...

Crud. This is bad.

[The Rick]

Grats to Price on a huge choke job.

[El Gordo]

Teix hit a salome. 5-1 MFY's.It's up to the O's.

[JDubs]

At the game. Most. Depressing Event. Ever.

[Goober Noodles]

Attaboy Simon!!

[crissfan172]

Huge out there. We need to get the lead in a hurry and put the pressure on the Sox.

[LA2]

Way to go, Alfredo!

(Worried abt his high pitch count tho'.)

[crissfan172]

Can we give the Rays at least 3 outs before declaring them dead?

[LA2]

At the game. Most. Depressing Event. Ever.

You mean the Tampa Bay game? Did a lot of Y-fans come out?

[Can_of_corn]

If the Rays and their best pitcher can't beat a kid from AA making his first start then I don't feel sorry for them.

[El Gordo]

To hell with TB. We just need to win this game.

[SammyBirdland]

There you go, Simon, with your gangsta Forrest Gump haircut.

[LA2]

To hell with TB. We just need to win this game.

That's the spirit!

[Orioles4Life21]

Good start to the inning

[SammyBirdland]

Why does Lester have to be so good?

[LA2]

If the Rays and their best pitcher can't beat a kid from AA making his first start then I don't feel sorry for them.

I sadly agree: I'd be happy enough to see us force the depleted Bosox into a playoff game. Does anyone know where it would be played? I'm hoping we exhaust the Sox so much they'll get creamed in the postseason anyway.

[Hank Scorpio]

Why does Lester have to be so good?

Haha, because he doesn't pitch for us!!!!

[Can_of_corn]

I sadly agree: I'd be happy enough to see us force the depleted Bosox into a playoff game. Does anyone know where it would be played? I'm hoping we exhaust the Sox so much they'll get creamed in the postseason anyway.

Tampa Bay

[Sanfran327]

If the Rays and their best pitcher can't beat a kid from AA making his first start then I don't feel sorry for them.

His friends are pretty good.

[Hank Scorpio]

Hahaha Price has thrown 59 pitches in 2 innings.

[Oriology]

Hardy!!!!

[RavNMadMan]

If the Rays and their best pitcher can't beat a kid from AA making his first start then I don't feel sorry for them.

This....they need to carry their own water

[crissfan172]

Oh JJ! You so got robbed MVO!

Woohoo!!!!!!

[SammyBirdland]

2 run homer by the real Most Valuable Oriole!

[murph]

I sadly agree: I'd be happy enough to see us force the depleted Bosox into a playoff game. Does anyone know where it would be played? I'm hoping we exhaust the Sox so much they'll get creamed in the postseason anyway.

....and make it even worse by going 18 innings, blowing through there entire bullpen and some other starters.....winning in the bottom of the 18th with a Wieter's walk off! :)

[Hank Scorpio]

Yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Orioles4Life21]

#30 for JJ!!!!

[JDubs]

You mean the Tampa Bay game? Did a lot of Y-fans come out?

Nah OPACY. $ux fans are as obnoxious as ever.

[PrivateO]

#leggo #30

[LA2]

JJ trying to prove that he's the real MVO!!! :mwahaha: :boogie:

Wieters' turn next! :D

[murph]

Best SS in the AL East!!!

[RavNMadMan]

Jack Jack Yardy......:2yay-thumb:

[MikeAD]

Jj hardy!! Boom there goes the dynamite!!!

[El Gordo]

30 for JJ! can we change that MVO vote.:clap3::boogie::smile11::2yay-thumb::beerchug1:

[Hank Scorpio]

God bless Adam Jones and everything, but JJ Hardy should have been the MVO.

Not close, IMO.

[Oriology]

Strike 1 to Markakis approximately 1 foot outside.

[crissfan172]

Nah OPACY. $ux fans are as obnoxious as ever.

Aren't they all up in Boston? ;)

[The Rick]

Serious man love for JJ freaking Hardy right now. Feel the magic happen baby!

[MikeAD]

Damn Rays down by five...come on Rays!!!

[SammyBirdland]

Orioles

[RavNMadMan]

God bless Adam Jones and everything, but JJ Hardy should have been the MVO.

Not close, IMO.


Word :thumbsup1:

[crissfan172]

If we win, the Ray lose, and the Rays win tomorrow, can we still claim we knocked them out of the playoffs?

[Sanfran327]

Tex grand slam... 5-0 Yankees...c'mon O's!


Oh no...T-bag just hit a grand slam...

These quotes won't go away! Lol

[Scrat1]

God bless Adam Jones and everything, but JJ Hardy should have been the MVO.

Not close, IMO.

Oh it's close, just between Wieters and Hardy. Jones isn't in the conversation.

[LA2]

Grats to Price on a huge choke job.

He choked against us last week, too, but that's OK.

[Oriology]

Price getting shellacked...leadoff double top 3.

[Sanfran327]

Friggin' iPad...

[LA2]

If we win, the Ray lose, and the Rays win tomorrow, can we still claim we knocked them out of the playoffs?

That wd take credit away from the Rays. I'd say we had forced Boston into an extra playoff, altho that doesn't sound neat.

[LA2]

Price getting shellacked...leadoff double top 3.

I guess Price is still too young to take all the pressure. Not a true Ace yet.

[Can_of_corn]

That wd take credit away from the Rays. I'd say we had forced Boston into an extra playoff, altho that doesn't sound neat.

It is still enough that you can trash talk your Red Sox fan co-workers all winter with it.

[LA2]

Friggin' iPad...

Context?

[JDubs]

Aren't they all up in Boston? ;)

Not the bandwagoners.

[LA2]

It is still enough that you can trash talk your Red Sox fan co-workers all winter with it.

Usually I disrespect them too much to even talk baseball with them.

[crissfan172]

You know you suck when you Nunez gets intentionally walked ahead of you with two outs. I'm looking at you Laird.

[murph]

If we win, the Ray lose, and the Rays win tomorrow, can we still claim we knocked them out of the playoffs?

I will gladly take either scenario.

[crissfan172]

Not the bandwagoners.

Oh...I don't consider them fans.

[Can_of_corn]

Usually I disrespect them too much to even talk baseball with them.

How about a nice, quiet "How bout them Red Sox?" as you walk by?

[murph]

Nice grab Wieters.

[Sanfran327]

Context?

Was acting up on me for a minute. All is well now.

[JDubs]

And the award for most random jersey at the game goes to the dude wearing the seahawks jersey in my section.

[SammyBirdland]

Nice job, Crawford. Well worth the money!

[Oriology]

Get this last out.

[murph]

Palmer..."He is a miniature version of Hardy..."...love it..ha.

[SammyBirdland]

Is that Bob Davidson?

[Hank Scorpio]

And this is why we're the Orioles.

Less than talent.

[crissfan172]

Uh...I have this muted. Does Palmer agree with the call?

[CrimsonTribe]

Ummm, show me the balk please.

[Goober Noodles]

Are you ****ing kidding me?

[Sanfran327]

Doesn't matter now. Moving on.

[SammyBirdland]

Uh...I have this muted. Does Palmer agree with the call?

He says regardless, it's Simon's fault. he should be in the stretch position. But he didn't balk. F MLB baseball.

[RavNMadMan]

Gotta wonder what Simon "was not thinking" there.....

[murph]

Uh...I have this muted. Does Palmer agree with the call?

Not really, and he definitely doesn't agree with a balk call on himself from 30 years ago... :)

[v4npro]

Umm...? Bad call there UMP F**K HEAD.

[Can_of_corn]

Does Blue have money on this game or is this coming down from the commissioner's office?

[SammyBirdland]

What's the fine for punching an ump in the neck?

[crissfan172]

He says regardless, it's Simon's fault. he should be in the stretch position. But he didn't balk. F MLB baseball.

Ok...I can now be outraged. :angryfire: :cussing:

[CrimsonTribe]

That was pretty weak.

[PrivateO]

Hahahahahahahaha

[crissfan172]

Aviles out by two miles. Wiets is God.

[Oriology]

Pfff Wieters hose.

[SammyBirdland]

Nice job by the second place MVO (after Hardy) to get the runner.

[RavNMadMan]

Does Blue have money on this game or is this coming down from the commissioner's office?

bit of both methinks

[Sanfran327]

Another scud to second.

[Sanfran327]

What's the fine for punching an ump in the neck?

For a fan or a player?

[Goober Noodles]

LMAO honestly why does anyone run on Wieters anymore?

[LA2]

Aviles out by two miles. Wiets is God.

I hope the Sox keep trying to run on him. Maybe they thought they cd make Simon falk again.

[Malike]

We're going have to score 15 runs to win this game. If its close the umpires are going to give the calls to Boston.

Someday I hope to have the most hits for an American born player who's father's first name is Jerry.

[crissfan172]

Ah...Vlad's last game. Thank God...

What's worse is Marko called that one, the ump just said......ummmm....ok.

[Sanfran327]

Someday I hope to have the most hits for an American born player who's father's first name is Jerry.

I hope your team flys Jerry out for the ceremony.

[LA2]

Jeez, Price-less is all the way up to 82 pitches (only 46 strikes) after three. TB fans must be feeling pretty deflated now.

[andrewochs615]

Hershbeck is horrible

[LA2]

What's worse is Marko called that one, the ump just said......ummmm....ok.

Bawston is like the Spanish soccer team.

[crissfan172]

The bad part of NY's BP is in for the 3rd. Rays very much in that game.

[LA2]

Looks like Lester is settling in? If so, the only hope we have is if Simon and the Pen keep it real close and the O's win with small ball or a two-run homer.

[andrewochs615]

It just started pouring here in columbia

[crissfan172]

That was strike 3 blue.

[crissfan172]

That was strike 3 blue.


...and that was strike 4. :)

[PrivateO]

ESPN: "What are you yelling about [Showalter (in regards to that blown call)]? He's gonna be the MVP."

I kid you not.

[CrimsonTribe]

Jeez, Price-less is all the way up to 82 pitches (only 46 strikes) after three. TB fans must be feeling pretty deflated now.

It's up to us then.

[crissfan172]

I kid you not.

That's why I'm sitting in the rec room watching this on wifi (I'm almost over my bandwidth limit for the week) instead of in my room on ESPN. I don't like Boston's announcers.

[Oriology]

Tex goes yard again...6-0 Yanks

[crissfan172]

I hate short people.

[andrewochs615]

ugh wtf

[RavNMadMan]

Oops.....

[Don Quixote]

I want to repeatedly stab him in the face, decapitate him, and put his head on a pike.

(Unless that's against board rules.)

[Hank Scorpio]

Meh, whatever. It's Alfredo Simon, what do you expect.

[andrewochs615]

I want to repeatedly stab him in the face, decapitate him, and put his head on a pike.

Its fine with me

The thought of these d-bags celebrating on our field is making me vomit a little in my mouth.

[Don Quixote]

*sigh*

[Hank Scorpio]

Been a strike for Lester all f'ing night long.

[crissfan172]

That would have been strike 3 if Lester was on the mound.

[murph]

Patton...just let it go!!!!

Simon is saying..."should have left me out there, I can't even bend over that far...never would have touched that"

[Hank Scorpio]

That would have been strike 3 if Lester was on the mound.

There is absolutely, positively no question about this statement. Anyone who denies it is delusional.

[crissfan172]

There is absolutely, positively no question about this statement. Anyone who denies it is delusional.

I'm not even talking about tonight. Any night of the season, Lester gets that call.

[Hank Scorpio]

I'm not even talking about tonight. Any night of the season, Lester gets that call.

It's just another example of how MLB is a farce.

[SammyBirdland]

Wow, dd you just see that catch out in center? MVO!

[Don Quixote]

Wow, dd you just see that catch out in center? MVO!

He makes it look so easy....

[crissfan172]

Wow, dd you just see that catch out in center? MVO!

I'm so nervous right now, I was about 15% worried he would drop it.

[El Gordo]

Clearly the Umpires are charged with doing what ever they think they can get away wiuth in order to keep Boston in the playoffs. God forbid one of the MFY's or Sux aren't in it. Think what that will do for TV revenues.

[Hank Scorpio]

Can anyone imagine if this was actually a game for the Orioles to win the wild card?

I would be dead on the floor by now, seriously.

[crissfan172]

Nice start by Reynolds. Please Davis...just a groundball to the right side will suffice.

[Hank Scorpio]

If Chris Davis doesn't advance the runner I will break something.

[LA2]

To be fair, we got a lot of strike/ball calls in our favor last night.

[Don Quixote]

If Chris Davis doesn't advance the runner I will break something.

I feel for the present remote.

Lucky remote.... :D

[crissfan172]

If Chris Davis doesn't advance the runner I will break something.

Okay kid... whatever you've gotta do.

[Oriology]

7-0 Yanks

[Hank Scorpio]

I feel for the present remote.

Lucky remote.... :D

Haha you know, I haven't broken one all year.

Then again, I have watched less baseball this year than I have in recent memory.

[crissfan172]

To be fair, we got a lot of strike/ball calls in our favor last night.

The ump last night was terrible, but consistent. I can deal with that (even though we shouldn't have to). I can't stand umps with two strike zones for each team.

[Don Quixote]

The ESPN scoreboard says the game is tied 2-2 in the bottom of the fifth. Maybe even someone there thinks the balk was bogus....

[Don Quixote]

Haha you know, I haven't broken one all year.

Then again, I have watched less baseball this year than I have in recent memory.

Natch...me too.

[Oriology]

Unbelievable.

[crissfan172]

Dammit Reimold. I love you, but we needed that.

[crissfan172]

Ya know...I can believe we're letting the Rays down, but I can't believe they're getting killed with their season on the line.

[Don Quixote]

If I knew I was going to be out by that much, I would have flattened him.

Classic Orioles...leadoff double, no flyouts, no double plays, STILL score zero runs. Sad but true.

[Hank Scorpio]

I can tell you one thing with absolute certainty: I will not watch 2 seconds of the Boston Red Sox celebrating a playoff berth in Camden Yards.

I will 100% not watch that, ever. Never ever.

[SammyBirdland]

LOL @ Crawford

[murph]

Keep Patton in for a while..he is dealing..

[crissfan172]

At least our pitching is keeping us in the game.

Me thinks Patton should be in the mix for a spot in the rotation next spring.

[Hank Scorpio]

You better have a quick trigger finger on the remote, then.

Meh, I won't watch the 9th inning.

[mrbig1]

JJ,Nick, and Vlad due up. We will take the lead this inning.

[crissfan172]

Remember earlier in the season when we couldn't figure out why Hardy's advanced defensive numbers were down this year? Well, Fangraphs has him as the 3rd best defensive SS in baseball now.

[murph]

Here we go...Here we GO!

[SammyBirdland]

Lester isn't getting bullcrap calls all of a sudden...

[crissfan172]

Lester isn't getting bullcrap calls all of a sudden...

That's because he's not hitting the glove.

[VeveJones007]

Lester isn't getting bullcrap calls all of a sudden...

Bud sent a message to the ump that the Yanks are way up on the Rays. Bud loves him some ratings for one-game playoffs!

[murph]

Phew...that was close..ha...glad it was called a ball!

[VeveJones007]

Vlad double play? Or Vlad clutch?

[crissfan172]

Wow...that was strike 2.


I'd PH Hudson here just to sac bunt. That's how much I don't want Vlad up.

[Hank Scorpio]

Here comes Vladdy, an absolutely perfect cure to Lester's wildness.

[bdlj0887]

This has to be the most inconsistent umpiring I've seen in awhile.

[PrivateO]

Pissing away my homework time to watch this game.

And it's a great decision.

[CrimsonTribe]

Wouldn't Matt Albers shutting us down be the fitting cap to a great season.

[murph]

Here comes Vladdy, an absolutely perfect cure to Lester's wildness.

Na...it Vladdy ain't letting this get away.

Future Hall of Famer!!! That's all that matters!!!!!

I hate to say it, but that was a playoff team play right there.

Vladdy is slooooooooooow.

[Hank Scorpio]

Na...it Vladdy ain't letting this get away.

Please. He's done.

He's Cesar Izturis + 75 pounds.

[LA2]

Great signing. :rolleyes:

Who didn't see that one coming? What a horrific signing.

I wd have batted Wieters cleanup today and Jones fifth, I was going to say that at the beginning, but thought of Vlad's recent BA.

Please. He's done.

He's Cesar Izturis + 75 pounds.

C'mon...he's not that bad. He's terrible...but Izturis is his own category.


I'd let Wiets swing 3-0 here....unless he walks him.

Go to hell, Thorne.

I never believed the hype he was in the tank for the Redsux till today. Now I understand.


He would do anything for them. Anything.

[Sanfran327]

Come on, MVO.

Amen. Why would an Orioles broadcaster say something like that? Why?

I still don't believe it. He loves baseball. Period.
