[mrbig1]

1-0 Indians! Happy Birthday Paul!
Payton in the line up Doesn't help things.

[mrbig1]

When is Mora due back?

[Scrat1]

Why Payton is batting 2nd instead of Montanez is beyond me.

[mrbig1]

Why didn't Ramon tag up?

[PaulFolk]

Why didn't Ramon tag up?
Wasn't hit deep enough. He's slow.

[Big Mac]

Why Payton is batting 2nd instead of Montanez is beyond me.

Payton is quite possibly the worst #2 hitter on the planet.

Then again you could probably remove "#2" and my above statement would still be true.

Man, I can't wait until he's gone in 3 weeks.

[mrbig1]

Paul my brother, I think your Birthday wish is over.

[Scrat1]

Paul my brother, I think your Birthday wish is over.

I laughed out loud at this.

[WEAVERMAN]

Happy Birthday Paul, the Orioles present lousy gifts.

[mrbig1]

Hey, there's 4 of us on game thread tonight. Better than the 3 the other night.

[mrbig1]

A rookie pitcher has had our number tonight. Now that's sad.

[baseballnelie]

Happy Birthday Paul.

To me it just seems any time we face a guy making his ML debut we never do well against him

[PaulFolk]

Why didn't I go out drinking tonight instead?

I mean, there's still time...but still.

[WEAVERMAN]

The good news...only 18 possible losses remain. Our pitching has been so bad for a month, the hitters are demoralized.

Sad but true.
