OK, NOW I can turn off the game. Aaron Judge is just another A-Roid. Can't believe the Skanks get so many players like that who can play at an ultra high level for what feels like decades. While cheating constantly and barely getting a slap on the wrist. Jorge Julio indeed. The O's still suck, boys.

Sulser constantly missing on the outside corner. Not promising. Memories of Jorge Julio.

Nothing good EVER comes from a leadoff walk.

Zach Britton coming in for the O's--- Oh, wait. Hopefully Britton won't get to pitch tonight.

SEVERINO!!!!! Wooooo!!! Woke up the whole house! Standing O!

Givens makes it a nail biter but we still have a chance to tie it up with a run... phew.....

Very good, but I want to win this game.

Every batter he gets to 2 strikes then nibbles and the Yankees just wait him out.

Should’ve left Bleier in. Hindsight makes it obvious.

Righty righty matchup I guess.

True, but the previous pitch was a strike, so he was a dead man swinging anyway.

Ugh, easy inning for Loaisica. Running out of outs.

Working from home has made it easy to stay up late. No commute on either end adds about 2.5 hours of useful waking hours to my day. Love it.

Bleier looking like 2012-14 Zach Britton out there!

That. That right there was our opportunity. Had the pitcher on the ropes. Couldn’t possibly have gone worse.

GDI!!! Ruiz GIDPs!

Seconded! He’s amazing. Has been doing a spectacular job for years, through thick and thin!

I find the Madden games being cast by ESPN during the rain delay on MASN to be physically revolting. I don’t care for football anyway, but with a bunch of teenagers playing it on Xbox I like it even less.

Ump will call the game off because the O’s are trailing.

Wow, if the game ends now, that was a REALLY nice double play on the O’s Defense to end the game.

Yep! The Yanks beat the Nats earlier this year after 5 IP, didn’t they? It was Gerrit Cole.

Classic Mid-Atlantic thunderstorm after a scorching hot day might require the O's to score in Bot 5 or just flat-out lose the game. Either that, or keep playing and delay the 5th inning long enough for the rain to come. If we have a fast inning and we don't score, I think we'll lose the game to weather.

Lakins gets the GIDP. Can't complain about that result! Let's get some runs. So close to getting a LEAD against the Skanks.

Maybe? I remember him killing us as a Blue Jay. The last Yankees pitcher I distinctly remember us killing was C.C. Sabathia. Probably in his last season of 2019.

WOO!!!! We're finally teeing up on one of the Skanks' vaunted starters! 1-run ballgame!
