vs. TIGERS 8/19

[LA2]

The third round of Cabrera & Fielder done with.

[CA-ORIOLE]

Chen has lost a few games that he pitched well in this year. Be nice payback to see him win this one.

Hiiiiigggghhhh fly ball left center field.

[scOtt]

That scared me! Sounded like it was BLASTED!

Ok Chen! Way to get through 5. Gotta work on those rough 1st innings.

[El Gordo]

I will never doubt you again, Wei yin Chen. :clap3::smile11::boogie::2yay-thumb::beerchug1:

Excellent bounce back from Chen. Shades of that July game against the Rays. Nicely done, Chen.

i don't get the Buck love for T garden. The dude is just a weak stick. (yeah I know he's had a couple of big hits) but most of the time he's zippo, zilch, nada, an automatic zero. Don't see the added value over Bako or Fox.

Naaaaaaahh !!

[LookitsPuck]

Do you bring him back for the 6th with 101 pitches? Or getting hit too hard to do so? Bottom of the lineup coming up?

There's got be something more. He can't really be that bad of a hitter. I'm not talking about the results either, he just looks horrible.

This game has followed the same pattern that the Tillman game at Yankee Stadium did last month.

5 runs in the first inning by Chen, and nothing for the next 4.

The only differences are that the Orioles broke their 7 runs up into 2 different innings, whereas in the game against the Yankees, they got them all in 1 inning, and the Orioles were up 9-5 after 5 frames, and now it's only 7-5. And (as far as I know) Chen isn't sick, as was Tillman.

Markakis is a freak. A freak.

Maybe he just totally stops worrying about hitting for power when he's leading off and becomes a .320/.400/.450 guy with 200 hits a season.

No, you're blasted (sometimes)!

[Orioles4Life21]

Eww it's Ayala...
