My neighbors are both Vets - one active duty Air Force and his wife works for a contractor now. They are getting massages today. I told them to request the masseuses hum The Battle Hymn of the Republic while they rubbed their calves. Thank you to all Veterans, combat or non-combat. Time away from your families is always sacrifice.

That was the first of a few. One of them was just me trying to throw the remote into the sofa with force and shooting a little high. It actually smacked against the side of a granite countertop and broke in half... that one was a Comcast remote too. Expensive. I've probably broken 4-5 of them over the years. None for quite a while though. When Jimenez gave up the walk off in 2016 I just shrugged and turned off the TV.

I was in the guest room at my old townhouse watching that game. That moment caused me to launch the remote control into the wall, shattering it into 13 pieces.

I love the fire. Good for that kid... hope he's here for a long time. Very grateful he didn't break a rib pounding his chest, though.

Ditto me. Hitting has become less of an art. Everyone's a one trick pony.

I mean that is "David Hess" down the middle of the plate. It's amazing how frequently our pitchers split the plate almost precisely in half.

The Orioles are really, really good at combining mental & physical mistakes. It's uncanny.

About that long. Couldn't even get one out before the lead vanishes.

What a terrible idea that was.

No mention of the splitter previously lauded by Luke.

Especially THAT zip code.

PS Adley Rutschman is OPS’ing .500 at Aberdeen. BOOM!!! I actually watched Beverly Hills 90210 at my wife’s behest so I missed all the fun. I think in retrospect I would rather have watched the Orioles get physically pummeled about the face and neck.

At least we have something to talk about!!!

It is what it is. You would think that there would be a little bit of variance in the consistency of Orioles pitchers giving up home runs, however. It is truly amazing how many home runs David Hess allows. He has given up 27 home runs in 74 innings. That is unbelievable!

That’s baseball baby.
