Tony-OH

Didn't the Orioles win 2 out 3? Obviously the Bautista loss is the big thing but I'll take a "bad" two out of three series any day of the week.

It was O'Hearn, and yes, he could have come off the bag and gotten to that but that's still on the throw. Gunnar had no reason to spin twirl there. Just an immature play that he will hopefully learn from. He has plenty of arm and got to that ball in plenty of time to plant his foot and make a more accurate throw.

Well, Gunnar will have a lot of great moments for this team, but he's the goat of this one.

Can't take slightly low pitchers with this umpire.

Really sucks for Cano. He did not deserve this at all. Henderson will need to atone for his bad goof. He has to know in that situation you don't risk a bad throw to put a guy on second.

Well that's unfortunate. That run is on Gunnar. Hopefully he can do something in the bottom of the 9th to make up for it.

I don't feel like he needed to spin there. I feel like he had a better chance of planting and throwing the guy out.

Need a K here badly!

Uggh, not good Gunnar.

Pitcher stares at the umpire after throwing a ball a ball off the plate like, "What, you aren't giving me that one after giving it to everyone else all game?"

It was a good combination for sure. You have a team that has struggled to keep leads in the Rockies. A team that has come back countless times this year in the Orioles. You have an umpire who is calling balls and strikes by hearing. A frustrated pitcher after said blind umpire calls a first pitch strike a ball who couldn't throw a strike to Mullins afterwards walking him. Then sprinkle in a a good good left-handed hitting power hitter and a pitcher that needs to throw a strike and boom! Two-run tie homer!

Hell yeah!!!!

I know Wynns is your boy, but yes, he's calling a great game for sure.

Sometimes you gotta tip the cap. Blach is pitching probably his best game of his life. Hitting the black, taking advantage of this umpires low and wide zone, just an amazing outing for him. Sucks for us, but Blach is just on his A+ game today.

Sorry, I just reviewed your 52 "contributions" to the board. You are not a good fit for our community.

Nice job by Voth so far.

That was a bit of an embarrassing at bat by Mountcastle.

So far no Bueno...

Means doesn't look quite ready yet, Velocity is down a bit still and not a lot of swing and miss. He doesn't look like someone ready to step in and provide starter's help yet. Hopefully he will improve.

That's not how we operate here. Even in the game threads that stuff is not allowed.

Yeah, have to imagine unless he's terrible they're going to try and get 2.1 from him at least.

Yeah, this is not surprising. Flaherty has been throwing BP for awhile now.

I'm just waiting after a pitcher gets a strikeout, "He's the bees knees out there!"

Voth coming into a 2-1 game does not make me feel good, but they are tired out there.

Oy, Tony Taters took a poor route on that one, but they are hitting Flaherty hard now.
