6/19: Orioles at Tigers

[Orioles4Life21]

This is off topic, but I was just watching the Pedro Martinez-Don Zimmer scuffle in the 03 ALCS on youtube. As much as I hate the Red Sox and Yankees, that rivalry was fun to watch when it was white hot in the early to mid 2000's. Most intense rivalry in sports in my opinion.

Nothing better than a one pitch out :thumbsup1:

What kills me about Manfra is that he doesn't let you know what happens right away when describing the action. I have to go by crowd reaction to tell what happened most of the time.

Not many curveballs today from Tillman.

[luismatos4prez]

Tillman not good today.

Curveball isn't good today.

[Norfolk orioles]

Tillman might not get through 5 with his pitch count.

[RipkenWay]

I'm pretty sure it's one guy, not some of "us".

Fixed it boss. :laughlol:

[Ori-Al]

Okay, only one run. Could've been worse.

[Norfolk orioles]

Well only 1 run.

Could have been worse.

Will be interesting to see if he pitches the 5th.

[Orioles4Life21]

Way to get out of it Chris.

Agree with this. Last week, I was in my car listening to the O's feed and Manfra says (I'm paraphrasing), "And the 1-0 pitch to Flaherty, who is in the lineup today against a lefty because of an injury to Casilla's thumb." And never told the audience what happened on the 1-0 pitch. But because it was RF, I was pretty sure it was either a called strike, a swing and miss, or a weak ground out to second.

[Norfolk orioles]

Sure would like to tack some more runs on here.

[Ori-Al]

Well only 1 run.

Could have been worse.

I think he'll definitely pitched the fifth. Whether he will get any farther is a different question

[LAOSfan]

There are a host of things that kill me about Manfra. But he's a good dude.

Yep, seems like a really good dude, but on radio, not so much. And, I think the fact that Angel is so good makes him seem worse.

Opposite field 2 ABs in a row for Jones. A nice sign, me thinks.

Manfra -The ball is going foul. Caught by the SS in the infield
