vs. BLUE JAYS, 4/10 (Home Opener)

[Hank Scorpio]

Nothing pisses me off more than first pitch hacking. And this entire lineup does it.

Nice hit Jones. Bad mistake by their LF, we gotta take take advantage.

We needed that, and didn't get it.

The previous rally wasn't as bad, because even though we left the bases loaded, it all started with 2 outs and nobody on base.

THAT was bad, because the Blue Jays made TWO defensive miscues, and we didn't make them pay for it.

Young definitely loves first pitch hitting... It's a bummer but we are getting opportunities.. Hopefully we will pull through

Feels like one of those games where we'll put a bunch of guys in scoring position and go 0 for ___

Don't have to worry about that -- the O's already have a hit with RISP today. So we're all set!

[Rich Mac]

Buehrle wasn't fooling anyone either ... until Delmon stepped up with the machete.

[Can_of_corn]

Nice hit Adam. Let's do something!

Davis overpowers the shift!

And young gets impatient and hit into a double-play to end the threat. Doesn't look for a pitch to drive in the air the way the Toronto hitters have.

If only there was a right handed DH type available who has a good approach at the plate.

[TouchemAll]

Piss poor approach by Young. Can't roll over like that on the first pitch. Bad, bad approach.

and AJ at bat :cussing:

[Catch 8]

He really is a good fundamental ball player.

Not all baserunners move up to third on that Encarnacion gb to short -- terrific jump, great quick decision. And he always gets excellent jumps in the OF. Wonder how he slipped through the cracks all this time.

Everything just going their way.

If only. Oh wait, there was. And he had a great spring.

[ArtVanDelay]

0-2 meatballs all day.

It really is annoying. It's almost like some of these guys have no understanding or feel for the situation. Soemtimes, when a guy is on the ropes, you look for your pitch and take everything else until you have to hit. Guys like Young just see ball, swing at ball to hell with anything else.

[Hank Scorpio]

Ok bring in whomever at this point.

[TheDirtyBird]

Get Bud out of there

Oh yea, I had forgotten all about him.

He's hard to double up as well.
