vs. RED SOX 5/22

[Grt 2BA FL Gator]

Another thing Brian needs to improve on is pitching with two strikes. No need to put that fastball right down the pipe there..

Was Matusz reading the Hangout after the KC start? He's not only sprinkling in his changeup today, he's throwing quite a few.

Very positive what we're seeing from him...he's a tough guy to hit when his FB is sitting 90-92 and he's sprinkling in curves (a particularly sharp one, too, as Youk would attest to), changes, sliders, cutters.

He better start now.

I would gladly lose rep to be wrong.

I hope that he's throwing more change-ups because his coaches are smarter (or as smart) as we are. :thumbsup1:

Solid wood on the ball from Hardy, even though it was an out.

I sense a home run from him later in this game.

[WEAVERMAN]

Need more runs.

You better believe it. C'mon Matusz give us 6 great inning.

[McNulty]

Anyone pointed out that Flacco is sitting behind the O's dugout yet?

Hangout Consensus > Orioles coaches

Just ask Terry Crowley.

[OFFNY]

Need more runs.

Adam says "OK Dan, I'll start it with a single."

[Purple Oriole]

Must. Lock. Up. Jones. Forever.

[crissfan172]

Here's a good time to run. Wieters is in a slump, so it's unlikely he knocks you in from first and Doubront is pretty slow to the plate.

In here? No. On the broadcast? Yes.

On Monday Night Baseball in 1974, I saw Pete Rose steal a base on a right-handed Pirates pitcher who just stood there with his back to him while Rose ran for second base uncontested.
