Il BuonO

Someone let Urias know he doesn’t have to swing at the first pitch if he gets up this inning.

Do it while he’s hot! Quick, before they read the posts at OH.

Agreed, but in the 4th inning the game is hardly a lost cause when they’re only down by three runs.

Rasmussen only 54 pitches through six.

I don’t think I’ve ever posted in two different game threads for the same game. I wish it meant something, but it’s less than satisfying so far.

Nevin for the win!

Costly

Not a great feed from Mateo.

Rasmussen is perfect and the Orioles are perfectly cooperative.

Guaranteed now

Maybe Hays will see more than two pitches.

It’s the 4th inning.

Again, Ben with the spot on commentary in regards to Lyles missing out over the plate. But why with a mediocre pitcher (over his career) do you even leave it up to him?

And that’s why you put him on with a base open.

Ran that in on his hands, nice movement to get the out.

Nice to be able to bounce a CU knowing AR is behind the plate.

Gives up a hit to a guy who can’t hit.

See? How can you not like the Trop??? Live Rays in RF!

Might be the first time I’ve seen Phillips make contact as an Oriole.

Now? Not five times, but I’ll grant he’s better right now. The difference is Lyles knows how to pitch, but can’t always execute because his stuff is middling to slightly above average. But after a 12 year career he should know how to pitch. He has the benefit of experience. Hall has a slightly higher ceiling.

Struck out the side.

Rays will be tough during the last month and a half.

Lyle’s x brought his A game.

Diaz, because we all are waiting on him to fulfill his tremendous promise.
