vs. PIRATES, 5/01 (Game One)

[scOtt]

I love the guy in the stands making some kind of jungle sound.

Keep it coming, jungle guy.

Probably Weams.

[LookitsPuck]

I don't care how wicked Morton looks. Jones looks lost at the plate. Flailing at every single pitch. Off balance.

[O's84]

Pathetically slow.

Was not even close too.

[SerenityNow]

You're kidding. Really? I said to myself how could any one hit that pitch, then I checked and Ted hit .300 on it

Is there data that shows what Williams hit on particular pitches? I know there is a chart Williams made on what he "felt" like he could hit on certain pitches but I didn't know there was actual data that far back.

Adam can watch a fastball go right down the heart of the plate, but can't lay off the 59 foot slider with two strikes to save his life.

[Guest]

Why would any pitcher throw Adam a strike.

[Can_of_corn]

Jones has to have one of the worst approaches in baseball' date=' he gives away a ton of at bats. [b']Can't believe he continues to swing at the slider 2 feet from the plate.[/b]

He can't tell that they are sliders!

Geez people it isn't like he is up there, sees the pitch, identifies it as a slider in the dirt and decides to swing at it anyway.

That is like blaming Wieters for being slow.

[LookitsPuck]

If Buck was any kind of manager he'd have Jones batting 6th or 7th in the second game and until he gets his "ish" in order.

[O's84]

The offense looks listless today.

[Catch 8]

Clevenger popped up like a helicopter on his last throw to second. He has a tendency to do this, understandable bc he is relatively new to catching. He needs to be an airplane. Coach can hold a yardstick out in front of the plate--about neck high--then the catcher hits his head or doesn't clear the yard stick if he pops up.

And we're gonna have a delay awesome. Game stoped at 5:25 p.m. Fantastic. Tarp coming on field

[Flash- bd]

If Adam doesn't start turning it around soon this could be a pretty disappointing year at the plate for him. And he hasn't shown many signs of doing so...

I'd feel a lot better if it said 58 pitches thrown or even 68
