I'm not liking where we're going here.

83.3% chance to score a leadoff triple. And we left him standing there. Surely that won't come back to bite us.

Well hit, bad result.

Two toughest parts of the cycle, done and dusted!

Two for two in non-umpire augmented reality.

Apparently in Kaufman, that rail fence is part of the wall? Blech.

Okay, I think we're onto something here.

Cowser can't stop putting balls into fountains

Bottom line, if the broadcaster finds a freeze frame that clearly shows the play is resolved a specific way, and you can't find the same thing in your review center, you aren't doing your job correctly.

Safe. But what will the bozos in the Umpire Clown College Command Center see?

"Nearly blocked by the second base umpire Dreckman...." He's starting to get closer to the Bucknor/Diaz/Hernandez tier of incompetence....

Orioles 1 Henderson SS 2 Rutschman C 3 O’Hearn DH 4 Santander RF 5 Mountcastle 1B 6 Mullins CF 7 Cowser LF 8 Westburg 3B 9 Holliday 2B Irvin, C SP Royals 1 Garcia, M 3B 2 Witt Jr. SS 3 Pasquantino 1B 4 Perez, S DH 5 Melendez LF 6 Renfroe RF 7 Frazier 2B 8 Fermin C 9 Hampson CF Lugo, S SP

Like most others here, absolutely not. We need him. If the team decides to not short-term extend Santander, Kjerstad is the obvious replacement. i don't see them getting rid of that flexibility for bullpen help. Besides, we have other guys in the minors that would be more appropriate trade pieces for a reliever.

That 9th felt like anti-2014. No longer will you bloop hit us off the field, you villains.

I wish it was hurting baseballs, and not our eyeballs, but alas.

All right, let's get it back.

Ball 4 on a pitch that's been called a strike all night.

Got the grounder, just not the right place.

He's having trouble finding the batter's boxes at this point.

Yipes.

Nope, spoke too soon, the static returns.

At least the static has been gone the last few minutes. Or maybe I'm tuning it out?

A called third strike that was actually in the strike zone? What happened there? Should someone check on the ump and make sure that he's okay?

No hitter in Philly was just broken up.

They really are sooooo bad. Judging by the way their AAA team looked a couple of weeks ago, there aren't any reinforcements to be had anytime soon either.
