vs. GIANTS 8-9

[WEAVERMAN]

Nicky shaved again, good job.

[WEAVERMAN]

Great job Tillman, let's get 2 runs so Chris can pitch the 8th.

OK Runs please.

[O's84]

Great end to a great outing! Thanks Tillman, now let's score some runs.

[RoflDogs]

Do you send Tilly back out for the 8th?

[scOtt]

Tillman 9 MFKs!

Is it? I guess I mean, is it always the better choice to take that pitch? That's baseball lore, but I'm not sure it's borne out by statistical analysis.

It's better to take unless you think you can drive it...unfortunately, our guys seem to swing at 3-0 pitches they should lay off in that count.

If there's guys on base fine, but I think it's pretty dumb in just about every case otherwise. Maybe if Machado was some kind of HR hitter, but he's not.

I know that, I played ball through college. I mean is that advice sound?

Also, even if you get a pitch that you think you can drive, you don't always drive it, even major league players.

They fired Showalter ???

Nick is so bad.

[CA-ORIOLE]

You suck Nick.

[WEAVERMAN]

Nick is really really cold. C'mon Adam.
