Oh duh, they are playing in Minnesota.

Listening to Thorne and Bordick, it feels like they are in Baltimore.

Okay, that's just hysterical. :D

I was wondering the the hell all of the cheering was about when Mauer hit the double.

You know how you can tell he's a genius? He knew to stay away from Robocop 3. 2 was a convoluted mess, but I wouldn't say it was "bad." The third just stunk on toast.

I would have gone with his Engineering An Empire series.

I know he has a Masters, does he have his PHD yet?

Well, yeah, if you go for the OBVIOUS. ;)

No, I don't think so on the PhD. He's a little behind Buckaroo then. Wasn't Buckaroo a PhD AND an MD?

      Hamilton needs to really improve on coverage of TEs.

      Os vs KC in WC round

      By e16bball · Posted

      Some quick recaps of the matchups against KC, as they happened so long ago that they’re genuinely tough to remember. Game 1 (@BAL): Orioles win 6-4.  Dean Kremer vs. Michael (Wacha) Wacha. Kremer escapes a brutal 1st inning with two errors (Urias; Henderson). After that, the pitchers mostly cruise until T3, when Kremer gives up a bomb to Witt, followed by a walk and a Perez bomb for a 3-0 KC lead. The O’s bats storm back, matching those 3 runs in B4, with Rutschman double and a Mountcastle HR providing the highlights. Not much action until T8, when Cano gets into and works out of a huge jam (2nd and 3rd, none out) to preserve the tie. In B8, three singles culminate in a Mountcastle RBI to take the lead. Kimbrel promptly blows said lead in T9, giving up a single to Isbel and two mostly uncontested SBs to PR Blanco, who trots home on a sac fly. In B9, Mullins singles with one out against RP Nick Anderson and Westburg sends the fans home happy with an opposite field walk-off blast.  Game 2 (@BAL): Royals win 4-1 Cole Irvin vs. Alec Marsh. Much less intrigue in this one. Irvin didn’t have it, giving up four, that could have been more. Garcia did most of the damage, with a double and triple that brought home 3 runs. Marsh mostly stymied the O’s bats, with Cowser’s double in B3 providing the only run. Smith closed it out for KC. Game 3 (@ BAL): Orioles win 4-3 Corbin Burnes vs. Cole Ragans. This one looked like it was headed the way of the visitors, as Ragans dominated through 6.1 innings of one-hit ball. The Royals had a load of traffic against Burnes, with 9 hits and a couple walks. The O’s did well to minimize the damage. Perez provided two RBI singles against Burnes, but his ponderous baserunning also kept him from scoring both times. KC added a 3rd run against Baumann in T7, on a homer by Garcia. Once Ragans finally exited, the O’s came alive, with RP James McArthur yielding two runs in B8. Cowser singled and was followed by a double from McCann. They each came home, on a Firestone by Henderson and a clutch 2-out single by Rutschman, to bring the score to 3-2. Smith again came on to close it out for KC, and he was greeted rudely. The bases were loaded for Cowser, who struck out. He was followed by McCann, however, who delivered the walk-off two-run single. Great rejoicing. Game 4 (@ KC): Royals win 9-4 Dean Kremer vs. Alec Marsh. Both guys largely matched what they’d done a couple weeks earlier. Kremer pitched into the 6th, with the only blemish until that point being a B4 solo shot by Pasquantino. Marsh pitched out of a couple jams, first picking off Henderson at 3B to snuff out a T1 2nd/3rd threat, then getting a popup from Mullins and a groundout from Cowser to escape a T4 bases loaded conundrum. B6 was a nightmare for the O’s, with Kremer getting two outs but also issuing two BBs. Akin was called on, and promptly set the whole thing ablaze, giving up RBI hits to Melendez, Massey, and Renfroe to make it 6-0. In T7, Rutschman answered with a grand slam off of possible double agent Smith to draw closer. But in B7, Melendez hit a 3-run bomb off of Tate to provide the final margin. Game 5 (@ KC): Orioles win 9-7 Corbin Burnes vs. Cole Ragans. As expected, a pitcher’s duel. Ragans came out hot, striking out the side in T1. His luck turned, though, in T2. The Orioles BABIP’d him to death, recording 8 hits in the frame. A two-run single by Westburg made it 7-0 and sent Ragans to the showers. Burnes was solid, though unspectacular, until yielding a B6 Weaver to Perez that ended his night. After the O’s manufactured a run in T7, an uncharacteristically wild outing from Coulombe was followed by a characteristically wild outing from Yohan Ramirez, with yet another big hit from Perez providing 2 RBIs to close to 8-7. Kauffman was in a frenzy. In T8, though, Mountcastle and Santander slammed back-to-back doubles off RP John Schreiber to make it 9-7. Akin and Baumann survived the bottom of the order in B8, and Kimbrel closed it out in orderly fashion in T9. Game 6 (@ KC): Orioles win 5-0  Cole Irvin vs. Seth Lugo. A mismatch on paper, and indeed it proved to be. Irvin survived B1 turmoil and then absolutely locked things down. Lugo was ambushed with back-to-back blasts from Westburg and Cowser to start T3, and then pitched his way into trouble in T6. A triple (?) by Santander was followed by a Mountcastle RBI double. Eventually RP Angel Zerpa walked in another run, but he did dodge further damage by striking out both Holliday and Henderson with the bases still loaded. Urias provided the final blow with a T9 single that drove home Henderson, and the Orioles bullpen locked down the shutout.

      I have no hard evidence to back it up, but it seems I've observed the O's this season have adhered to a "traditional" righties vs. lefties and lefties vs. righties mentality.  Damn the reverse splits!

      KC actually has more than 1 guy who can shut you down.

      Not sure how you don't have a spy for Allen on 3rd and 5.
