Nice piece of hitting Ryn-O!

We won't be shut out.

Yeah, it's gone tonight. it was coming and going last night. Seems like it went away when they fixed that static problem last night. Maybe they had to move some duct tape from the strike zone box machine to fix the sound machine.

Yeah that was a majestic blast, I was out in RF in that little triangle section behind the foul pole (Sec 1 or Sec 3) so I watched it sail out to my right.

Get up and start throwin' Yohan.

16 straight starts allowing 3 or fewer earned runs for Grayson. That streak is over.

We're going to get to see Yohan Ramirez tonight! Woohoo!

So they have swapped out samurai stuff for a hubcap?

Do they still do that thing they did a few years back where they wear weird uni's one weekend in August and everyone has goofy/meme-y nicknames on their uniforms instead of their names?

My God, was your oral history book about the O's really 25 years ago? That makes me feel really old. It was a fantastic book, I treasure it and revisit it often. You can just jump into the middle of any section of Orioles history and read a few pages and find something interesting. It was one of my primary references when I did this little thread as a project to make the 2017-2018 offseason go by faster:

Buck did it with Bonds when he managed Arizona.
