GAME THREAD 4/6: 19 years since First game Ever at OPACY

[PrivateO]

Good, let's swing at everything.

[nevadaO]

Hey, way to take some pitches and give your starter some time to rest!

[ChrisAF79]

Not exactly an inspiring inning. Way to get Bergy some rest fellas.

[v4npro]

Way to go Jones!! Yay!

[SammyBirdland]

Nice hit, Adam. Way to make that pitcher work. That was magestic! Awesome!

Guys, we're not going to go undefeated. And if we can't overcome two-run deficits, we're not going to break 60 wins. I'm all about passionate responses, but without some perspective you will actually die by like mid-May.

[ChrisAF79]

Adam Jones should never swing at the first pitch, like ever.

[adamwolff11]

I'm so sick of Jones entire approach at the plate.

[The Rick]

Sweet, a 1 pitch out, 2 pitch out & a 3 pitch out there for Verlander. I bet he was chopping at the bits to face some of our guys after his 116 pitch appearance in OD against the Yanks.

[SammyBirdland]

Wieters got good wood on that. Was it deflected?

Sounded better than it was. He didn't put it where they ain't.

I don't mind losing. It happens. I will not excuse dumb baseball, however. And that's exactly what we've seen tonight. Dumb baseball all around.

[OFFNY]

In fairness, he shouldn't have responded by walking the next batter and then making a throwing error.

He shouldn't have been out there to walk the batter, or throw the error, which didn't matter anyway, because the batter would have scored from second or third. The only good thing is that it doesn't go on Brad's ERA.

[Orioles0615]

So what your saying is, ever since Bergesen stopped pitching well, you've lost confidence in him? Interesting

well yea he used to be a guy who could get you 7 and 8 innings. Ever since that Billy Butler line drive it has been differnt.

Welcome to the club. I've been a member for probably two years.

Its better to burnout than to fade away.
