    Arrieta retires the final two batters to end that debacle of an inning.

    Pirates now have a 5-4 lead.

    Yes, folks, the Orioles just let TWO RUNS SCORE on a BUNT.

    Can we blame Dave Trembley for this?

    It their defense I am not sure how you could be expecting the pitcher to bunt in that situation.

    Christmas gets marketed earlier every year. The Orioles are really taking it to another level. Such giving spirit and it isn't yet Easter.

    Yeah, really. It was only the first thing I thought of (and approaching 100% of anyone who's reading this thread, also).

    Orioles go down 1-2-3 in the 5th.

    Halfway through. O's trail, 5-4.

    Sun recap:

    And here we are in Little League: To recap, Bedard bunts, Paulino grabs it and throws to first while runner Barajas breaks home ...

    Barajas then scores on the throw back to home. 3B Betemit had charged on bunt, so no one on third to stop runner Barmes. ....

    Reimold comes in from left to cover third and Paulino's throw bounces off Reimold and into left. And Barmes scores, from first on a bunt

    Gameday might explode with the recap.

    I put him as my choice with the most upside, but someone in the thread made a good observation about him. He fools around too much trying to show off his whole arsenal of pitches instead of featuring his fastball. I might agree, though, I'm not observing todays contest so someone else might have a better take.

    Groundout to short. Angel and Manfra aren't thrilled with the way Hardy threw the ball to first. Said he short-armed it, maybe protecting his injury.

    hey! Our DH problem is solved. J.J. Hardy, because he can't throw with the shoulder injury.

    Walker rips a double to the gap. Arrieta hasn't been fooling anyone the last couple innings.

    Angel keeps calling Casey McGehee "McGahee." He's not Willis McGahee, Joe.

    Now McGehee smokes a double beyond the dive of Miller. Walker scores. 6-4 Pirates.

    Miller played the ball like Jones. Dive and a miss.

    So does hardy play more games then Roberts?
