2 things ........

 

A. ) We're playing 3 games at Yankee Stadium on April 12th, 13th, and 14. There are tickets as cheap as $5 directly on the Yankee site (no joke), and as cheap as $4 on Stub Hub. Would any of you like to go to these games, and possibly meet up before and/or after the game(s) ???

 

B. ) One poster talked about an Opening Day part, where a bunch of us can get together and watch the first game (I have free Opening Day tickets from being Fan of the Game in the last 4 games of the season last year, but I may be giving them away.) Are any of you that won't be making the 4-hour trip to Baltimore interested ??? Thanks.

If you're giving away tickets to opening day, I'll take them. :) And yes, I'll make the 4hr drive to Bmore.

I might be down for the 13th. Depends if I can get off, and what bus fare would be for the trip.

Yankee Stadium is a blast.

Last games I was up there were in June 2008, where the Orioles and Guthrie pasted the Yankees, and (I think) July 2009 where Hernandez battled Pettitte and Matsui hit the walkoff.

Yeah !!! Maryland to New York, and New York to Maryland.

Who says that Oriole fans don't travel as well as Yank fans and Red Sox fans ??? ) :D

I've seen the Orioles at Yankee Stadium before, and I'll probably try to catch a game again this year. It's no Oriole Park, but it's a nice place to see a game.

Yankee Stadium and its surrounding area isn't half as great as the atmosphere of OPACY and the inner harbor, and Little Italy a mile down Pratt Street.

    • The problem with a Cowser/Kjerstad/Stowers/Bradfield outfield roster is there are no right handers to handle LHP. I don't think and completely left handed outfield is the destination for an organization the values versatility.
    • Looks maybe concussion related. 
    • How can you not be romantic about baseball? This seems slightly poetic. I enjoyed reading, and correlated your experience in the stands back to what I watch in Game 1 on MASN.  It was also pretty cool to hear Jim Palmer give you a shout out in Game 2 of the series on Live TV.
    • I am not worried.  It just doesn’t remotely meet the eye test.  He has been great in the field . I can think of at least 3 outstanding plays he has made and not any that I thought he should have gotten but didn’t. Meanwhile Holliday is 3 OAA and I can’t think of an outstanding play and can think of a number I thought he should have made. 
    • Nicely stated Roy. Every since I was 9 years old and saw the O's vs. the Tokyo Giants in Tokyo in 1971, I've been infected with the Orange/Black virus. There is no cure and I don't want one. You and I sat at the lunch table with Jim Palmer at the 1970 World Series Champs reunion, and its still one of my enduring baseball memories. You said I looked like Carlton Fisk! I was at all 3 games in this Angels series, right behind the O's dugout. I got to see all our boys, and just simply love to watch this team play. And in true baseball fashion, the one game on paper we should have dominated (GRod vs. 8+ ERA Channing), we end up down 7-0 and lose. But watching Gunnar's homers, his electric triple, and he made a fantastic play today on a ball that went under Westburg's glove, Adley do Adley things, Cowser, holy crap. Kimbrel v. Trout with bases loaded, bottom of 9th, 2 outs, down by 2? That was fun. Next game Trout bats leadoff and torches a GRod fastball for a homer to the opposite field.  An observation.... If you didn't know anything about the team, and you only watched game 1 batting practice, you'd think Cowser and O'Hearn were the studs of the team. Mountcastle was taking BP with the reserves and he put on a show as well.  Home after 3 straight days watching this O's team, so jealous of the Balt fans in Balt that get to see the team with regularity. It's a special bunch.
    • emmett16 is right. Uppercut swings produce a lot of groundouts because the bat is not on the same plane as the ball for very long. The best swing stays on the same plane as the ball for a longer time. This will produce contact that creates backspin on the ball which makes it carry. That Ted Williams book is one of the best hitting books ever written.
