[GeorgeD]

Yikes. :eektf:

[blueberryale77]

What's that? Lou Montanez doesn't have a right fielder's arm? I had no idea!:(

[baseballnelie]

And not a good start to the game for our pitcher again

[blueberryale77]

More trouble for Montanez in RF. :eek:

Dude should not be allowed to wear a glove.

[blueberryale77]

I'm going to choose to believe Castro did that on purpose to make sure the run would score... :noidea:

[El Gordo]

Did I just hear Thorne say it remains a Tampa Bay lead?:rolleyestf:

[baseballnelie]

Ok even though we have a lead I am taking a break from watching it to play some beer pong for a bit

Sounds like fun.

Hi all!:)
My Perfect One!:hearts:is on 1st!!:clap3:

[cindyluvsbrady]

Where is Nick M:002_sdrool:?

[blueberryale77]

OK BRob, freaking steal second already. For once you're on base in the middle innings of a close game.

Thank you!! I love a good looking man who obeys me. :boogie:

[cindyluvsbrady]

My Perfect One:hearts:did steal!:wedge:

Aubrey took him and Jonesy out to see if the nightlife in Baltimore is still horsepoop.

Thank you!! I love a good looking man who obeys me. :boogie:

The games recently (past 5 or 6) have been fairly close. We just loose every one in a different, painful fashion. Also, Simon pitched 5 innings of 1 run ball. That is amazing to me...

He is so wonderful!:)

[blueberryale77]

Oh look, our best healthy relief pitcher is coming in...




...for the other team. :(

[mrbig1]

3-1 Birds.:clap3:

[cindyluvsbrady]

My Perfect One :hearts:has scored:clap3:!
I really like Oscar:)

[blueberryale77]

Nice job by LUUUKE breaking up the DP.

[cindyluvsbrady]

Where is Paul Folk?:rolleyestf:

[blueberryale77]

Where is Paul Folk?:rolleyestf:

At the strip club with Aubrey, Nick and Adam. ;)

I'm here, but the wireless connection in the press box has been horrible all night, so I keep getting disconnected.

Tonight's doubleheader attendance: 15,215.

[blueberryale77]

Run #4! That's pretty impressive for us these days. Quiroz is having himself a pretty nice day.

[blueberryale77]

What a horrific call! That was a mile off the outside and the umpire had to think about it for a minute and a half before calling it. Roberts could have hit about .350 this year if not for BS called strikes in that region of the righthanded batter's box. :angryfire:

He is a saint for not getting ejected from a single game this year when the same thing has happened to him over and over and over again.

We agree:mad:
I am already crying thinking about the slighest chance of My Perfect One:hearts:not being back next year!!!!!!!!!!!:002_scry::002_scry:

NO!:no:
I will die!:002_scry:

[El Gordo]

Simon has been very impressive. No BB's 4 pitches thrown for strikes. Would like to see more of him.

[hammer310]

Dang it, were winning. :p:rolleyes:

Go Rays! :mwahaha:

[blueberryale77]

Stop jinxing our pitchers!

[cindyluvsbrady]

Go Os!!!:):clap3::wedge:

[blueberryale77]

Wait... did Ramon Hernandez really just beat the relay on an almost-double play ball?!

[PaulFolk]

The scoreboard just put up the "Wow!" graphic. As in, "Wow, Ramon Hernandez actually ran hard and beat out a double play!"

[El Gordo]

Stop jinxing our pitchers!
After 7 good innings he can't be jinxed he's done his job.

[LA2]

Simon has been very impressive. No BB's 4 pitches thrown for strikes. Would like to see more of him.

Really?! what does he throw and how hard? How much differentiation in speed between his diff. pitches?

[blueberryale77]

After 7 good innings he can't be jinxed he's done his job.

Your jinxing could cause Trembley to leave him in for too long. :p

[cindyluvsbrady]

LOL!!!!:D
Thats funny

[mrbig1]

5-1 Birds. I'll take it.

[hammer310]

After 7 good innings he can't be jinxed he's done his job.

Oh, no. He is still out there.

You did it now, leadoff triple.

[blueberryale77]

Good job of taking Scott out for defense and leaving Montanez in, Captain Kirk! :rolleyestf:

[cindyluvsbrady]

Your jinxing could cause Trembley to leave him in for too long. :p

LOOK what El Gordo did!:mad::eek:

[El Gordo]

Why do I think that if Markakis had been in RF that 3B would have been a 1B.:rolleyestf:

[cindyluvsbrady]

Paul
Go annd stop the Lets Go Rays people!:angryfire:
Thank You!

[hammer310]

Go Longoria! :mwahaha:

:clap3::rolleyes:

[blueberryale77]

Oh for cripes' sake, there's a "Let's go Rays!" chant going on in Camden Yards. The can't put 10,000 fans in their own damn stadium and they're taking over ours.

And El Gordo has OFFICIALLY jinxed Simon. :(

[cindyluvsbrady]

Go Longoria! :mwahaha:

:clap3::rolleyes:

You are bad!!!!!!:rolleyestf::epic:

[blueberryale77]

Paul
Go annd stop the Lets Go Rays people!:angryfire:
Thank You!

He can start by banning them from the Hangout. ;)

It is making me sick:puke:
El Gordo
What WERE YOU thinking?:ohlord::pain:

[blueberryale77]

Ramon is hustling today so Quiroz has to be the lazy catcher. :mad:

And Jamie Walker... what more can I say? There is no worse jinx than having him come into a game to relieve you.

[hammer310]

Jaime Walker, sign him to an extension! :D

He is so pathetic :bangwall:

[hammer310]

:angryfire::angryfire::angryfire::angryfire:

:cussing::cussing::cussing::cussing:

:new_wave: Walker

EDIT: He is still in, pathetic.

[blueberryale77]

Wow, bad pitch by Walker and sloppy defense by Payton. There's another shocker. :rolleyes:

[blueberryale77]

Why in the name of all that is holy is Jamie Walker still in this freaking game?!

[cborgans1]

Goodness. Missing the Alfredo right now.

[LA2]

Oh jeez, I guess the O's just don't have the heart to DFA Walker this close to the end of the season....

[hammer310]

6-5 Rays

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::r ofl::rofl::rofl:

[JTrea81]

Why in the name of all that is holy is Jamie Walker still in this freaking game?!

MacPhail looked at the scoreboard and saw Pittsburgh was winning...

There we go, 4th pick here we come!

[LA2]

It says it all that we don't have anyone better than Kam to warm up in the BP.

[hammer310]

I just want to continue the ROFLS, because this is hilarious.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[cindyluvsbrady]

I am REALLY mad!:angryfire::cussing:
Why do people have to jinx?:eek::bangwall:

[cindyluvsbrady]

I just want to continue the ROFLS, because this is hilarious.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

You are VERY bad!!!!!!!!!!!!:(

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::r ofl::rofl:

Go ride your bandwagon to your plastic indoor "stadium" already! :rolleyes:

[fansince71]

And Simon thought he was gonna get a win tonite:rofl::laughlol:

[LA2]

No Albers, Johnson, Sarfate, Bradford, Ray.

[dcterp]

Phew. I was getting worried that we might win that one.

[LA2]

Somehow this feels like the most demoralizing game in the current losing streak.

[hammer310]

Phew. I was getting worried that we might win that one.

Yea I know.

4th Pick! 4th Pick! 4th Pick!

[blueberryale77]

Somehow this feels like the most demoralizing game in the current losing streak.

Each one is a little worse than the last. :mad:

[LA2]

DT and Kranitz must be -tting in their pants.

[hammer310]

Go ride your bandwagon to your plastic indoor "stadium" already! :rolleyes:

All about the 4th pick baby!

[LA2]

Each one is a little worse than the last. :mad:

Yea, I know--If I'm B-Rob, I'm saying, "That does it, I'm outta here (again)!"

[cindyluvsbrady]

Yea I know.

4th Pick! 4th Pick! 4th Pick!

Is your moving van packed for your move to Tampa?:eektf:

[JTrea81]

All about the 4th pick baby!

If it's really bad during the game on Saturday I think the Hangout section should start a "4th pick" chant...

[hammer310]

DT and Kranitz must be -tting in their pants.

DT probably already did when he realized he put Walker in.

Seriously though, this is pathetic. We just cant win.

[blueberryale77]

All about the 4th pick baby!

What's the difference in percentage of fourth picks vs. fifth picks that make it to the majors? With our draft history in the Angelos era, I don't care where we pick because we're going to do a crappy job of it 90% of the time anyway.

[cindyluvsbrady]

Yea, I know--If I'm B-Rob, I'm saying, "That does it, I'm outta here (again)!"

NO!:no::old5fan::002_scry:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

True, but its better to have a higher pick regardless if its just one slot.

[hammer310]

Smash a double here Nick, you need 50!

[T2E2C]

Is it Mother's Day.....somewhere ?

[blueberryale77]

Mother[cussers] day maybe. :angryfire:

[LA2]

kakes draws the walk. Let's get the rally goin'! :clap3:

Nasty Southern Belle ;)

[LA2]

it's too depressing--I'm outta here.

[JTrea81]

He just looked at the pitches. The batters weren't even trying. They have mailed it in already...

[blueberryale77]

So close... but so far away. :002_scry:

[T2E2C]

Mother[cussers] day maybe. :angryfire:

Hey, Blue, you could truck on over to UNC & scout Alex White & Dustin Ackley for OH

I'm way up in the Mountains, that's almost halfway to Baltimore from here. Plus I'm a little anti-the baseball program there since they fired a certain person's dad 10 years ago (although I didn't know about it until a few years after the fact). :angryfire:;)

Too bad. Thought you could get some of that Syd Thrift Confederate
money for your road trip. :laughlol:

[T2E2C]

Looks like the Pirates saw us in their rearview mirror & got the shakes. :eek:

[mrbig1]

I can't believe we're going to lose both games:cussing:.

[mrbig1]

Baseball. :angryfire:
