It’s a team game. The O’s are 5-2 since his call up. They are getting wins while he is going through the “getting his feet wet” process. Very few big leaguers rake from the get-go so this is just part of the process.

Houston goes for the sweep. Orioles ready to keep their streak.

Two of them were 3-2 hit and run counts and Adley and Austin both let fastball strikes go by without offering. The catcher was shooting fish in a barrel. -
I could have written this word for word except I was 8 years old in 1966!

Nice reading comprehension.

The Orioles have been in the postseason 14 times. The average Win-Loss after 84 games is 50.5 - 33.5. Six times they were better than 49 - 35 and six times they were worse. This year’s record is the same as 2016. It’s a low time time right now but I’m keeping the faith.

Saturday, June 24: Orioles vs Mariners, once again dodging raindrops
Gerard19 replied to SteveA's topic in Game Threads
I’m in Montana so I was watching the Seattle sports network that televises all the Mariners’ games. The play by play guy…”fortunately, McKenna is batting for Santander as he was put in as a defensive replacement”. They go on to show McKenna’s meager stats, and two pitches later, BOOM! -
Admittedly, I’m just an old Strato-Matic manager from the 1970s, but I was thinking the other day about the notion of Mateo taking over the late inning defensive outfielder, pinch runner position McKenna now fills. Gunnar at SS except for spot starts for Mateo. I’m not sure of Mateo’s defense in the outfield but recall they tried him a bit in spring training out there.

The ghost of Ernie Banks says “Let’s play one!”. One of the best FCS football games ever was played under a blood red sky. Air quality was 184 the morning of the game.

It was the best of times; it was the worst of times. After one missed connection getting here and two Oriole losses, tonight was sweet indeed. I met several great fellow O’s fans and as Arnold said, “I will be back”. Thank you Baltimore!

Push in all your chips boys! Angels money line tomorrow is +110 and I’m gonna be there! Odds are not great that I die in a plane crash on the way home Wednesday so I’d stay away from that one.

That’s pretty damn funny! Going to Monday and Tuesday games. Your odds won’t be great betting on Ohtani tomorrow, I’m thinking.

Sorry everyone. I’ve now been to 6 games in Baltimore (1 on 33rd and 5 at OPACY) and they’ve won 1 of them. Maybe I should catch an early morning flight back to Montana for all our sake. I know it’s 1 of 162 but it was frustrating to see the lineup put out for a crowd of 36,000+.

Good one! I’ve heard The Wire captures Baltimore’s aura. Yellowstone, except for the scenery, isn’t even close. Having said that, I’m a fan of the show. I live five blocks from the Capitol; I’ll pop in and tell Governor Dutton you say hello.
