80 minutes to play the first three innings. The score must be 5-4 or something.

Yankees getting blown out, you love to see it.

Has Mullins actually bunted for a hit this year? It's like now that's he's a real hitter he can't do it anymore.

A good get for the team that doesn't want to splurge on Kyle Gibson.

Ohhhhh big time choke job by JD!

We were so spoiled by the Schoop-Hardy-Machado infield. No question they turn that DP.

And Severino steals a strike from Harvey, just dumb.

Harvey the opposite of sharp.

That's the point, the Sox pen isn't pretty good front to back. But if they can get 6 innings out of Rodriguez they can go right to their very good closer. Also, as BohKnows pointed out, they just played a 12-9 circus ballgame where they burnt a lot of bullpen, a rainout bails them out a little. Not really important in the big picture, but it's something to talk about. I hate the seven-inning doubleheaders way more than the extra inning rule.

A 7-inning doubleheader really plays into the Red Sox hands. Starters who give you questionable length, a dominant closer, and no middle relief. Who is happier to get play seven than Boston?

Wouldn't that game have been way more fun if we could have seen whether Endy Chavez could execute a bunt to get the ghost runner to third and Wilson Betemit could hit a deep enough fly ball to bring him in?! /sarcasm/

Watching the rerun of this game, I'm struck by how stingy the home plate umpire was. Means could have finished this in 100 pitches with even a slightly bigger zone. I wonder if he's going to get friendlier more Glavine-like umpiring now that his fame and reputation is blowing up around the league.

There's already a thread to argue about this.

I'm bummed his next start won't be at home. No Oriole has ever started at Camden Yards coming off a no-hitter.

Valdezesque.

If Valaika can get on, lefties mash this guy apparently...

What is up with this stadium's camera angles? I feel like I'm watching a Michael Bay trailer or something.

Never mind!

Sweet defensive indifference so the O's can tack on another 0 to that RISP streak.

Hays has been lost at the plate tonight.

Sisco was probably confused by Seager actually coming through with the bases loaded.

This guy's all over the place, too, but watch the O's bail him out.

At what point does Travis Lakins Jr. request a name change?

Lakins' fault, obviously, but Scott missing 0 bats and letting three guys elevate the ball is not too good.

Thanks for nothing, Travis.
