vs. MARINERS, 7/25

[WEAVERMAN]

Throw strikes KG, get yourself a K.

Oh the indignity. Former Oriole Endy Chavez with the Baltimore chop.

Endy displaying that power we so admired in his stint with us.

I wonder if Buck didn't ask if the umpires wanted to do a review of their own accord. That's happened a few times, where the manager doesn't have to spend his challenge. All it takes is for the crew chief to ask the ump who made the call, "are you SURE about that?" and if the guy is honest and not a dbag, if he actually had a doubt, he'll fess up and say "I really didn't see it" or "I totally blew that call", and they'll put on the headsets.

Anyway, maybe Buck was just too timid on pulling the trigger on his only challenge so early in the game, on a call that was not guaranteed to be overturned. There may be a more pivotal play later that he will want to challenge.

Fair point. But I feel like we don't see enough calls that are "potentially challengable" in a game to warrant the conservatism. Yes, if it happens once it will seem like too much, but I like Nellie with Adam on second. What would the count have been 3-0 or 2-1? I didn't see.

Nice snag by Pearce btw.

Hey, Im a worrier, I'll admit that. But lets face it.This is the King were facing tonight. Its been a long time since we even SAW him let alone beat him.And the O's are a high K team. I hope we can get him out of the game or that Gaus out pitches him. Gonna be a long shot tonight.

We're ALL worried about facing the King...

Weak contact= basehit.

Ball hit hard = out.

Ah baseball can be whimsical and maddening at times.

Small zone tonight.

Throw strikes Kevin or we're in trouble, DP ball time.

I'm not worried about Felix, not even a little bit. I'm worried about Gausman.

[O's84]

This is such BS.

2 weak hits.

[weams]

Flaherty almost had that.

[WEAVERMAN]

Real cheap stuff wow. Get the DP ball Kevin.

[allquixotic]

Small zone tonight.

If the zone is small for King Felix as well, I'll take it. If the ump wants to make things harder on their ace and give our boys a chance to hit one belt-high, that would be fine by me.

Nice job Chris.
