vs. RAYS, 8/26

[TonySoprano]

Second opportunity and another wasted one.

We're threatening. Soon we'll kick down the door.

Still - I would've liked to bank some of those runs from last night.

[WEAVERMAN]

You need to cut down on those K's kid.

[LAOSfan]

Well the bad news is we didn't score. The good news is that Cobb has thrown 44 pitches in two innings. Keep it close and keep driving that pitch count up.

[Reboulet'sStache]

We're not going to hit homers off this guy, gonna have to figure out another way.

Then we need Chen to get it together, because we are maybe capable of scratching out 2 or 3 runs without a homer. MAYBE.

[Chavez Ravine]

Manfra and Angel jinxed Schoop; just before he got schooled on that changeup they were talking about the great patient appraches the O's were flashing.

[El Gordo]

Well at least Cobb's pitch count is up.

[WEAVERMAN]

Settle down Wei, you and the Orioles could use a 1,2,3 inning.

[scOtt]

You need to cut down on those K's kid.

At least he got it to 3-2. That's a feat for Schoop.

SI did a good article on review in baseball. Every Monday, the league submits all of the replays for the week. Some umpires in the MLB have an fail rate on calls over 80%, some of the best are in the teens on getting plays wrong. Needless to say, the league is grading umps and those umps who show competence in making calls will be getting playoff games, etc. Hopefully, if a guy is wrong 80% of the time like a few of them have been, they will demote them or something.

That's big, let's make sure to work him innings 3-5.

Wei-Yin Pitching Machine.

He's a pitch, pitch, pitch, pitch, pitching machine,

Watch him get down, watch him get down.

As he do, do, do his thing right on the scene.

[OFFNY]

o

Cobb is at 44 pitches through 2 innings.

[allquixotic]

Wow, that's a very precise watch. It appears to be exactly 17:94:65 DM at Olympus Mons, Mars.

[OFFNY]

Well at least Cobb's pitch count is up.

You beat me to it.

You bastard.
