Actually, I thought he was rather impressive. As Jim Palmer said he couldn't get a feel for the ball today. Yet, he still managed to get out of 2 ugly inning and make it to the end of the 5th with only allowing 1 run. He fought throught it.

My thoughts exactly. He was like Houdini out there.

It was a gutsy performance. He didn't give up through it all, but got key strikeouts at the right times. And the O's defense really helped him out.

Now as for the O's offense... :cussing:

Ubaldo didn't have all of his command. I was sitting in Section 18 so I couldn't see the sideways position of the balls he threw. But it looked to me as though his fastball didn't have a lot of "hop" on it, so the Yankees starting teeing off on it. However, Ubaldo turned to his other pitches (curve, change up, etc.) and fought through it all to get out of the jams that he got in. I think that he was also getting a bit squeezed by the home plate umpire. For a pitcher who didn't have all of his "stuff", he did a good job to keep his team in the game. He had 6 Ks, 1 (or was it 2?) walks plus a hit batsman. I was proud of his efforts for his team. I was also VERY happy to see the O's give it to the hated Yank-mees.

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES O(JUNE 17th)

Paul Revere - CF

Chase Utley - 2B

Maikel Franco - 3B

Ryan Howard - 1B

Domonic Brown - RF

Cameron Rupp - C

Cody Asche - LF

Freddy Galvis - SS

Kevin John Correia - RHP (0-0, 0.00 ERA)

http://www.baseballpress.com/lineups

6.67 innings, 4 runs.

0 walks, 8 strikeouts. O 98 Pitches (63 Strikes, 25 Balls.)

Jimenez was rolling along, having retired 10 in a row, and there was one out with nobody on base in the 7th inning. And then a single, a bunt single against the shift, a 3-run home run, a flyout, and a triple ...... all of a sudden, Jimenez' stellar outing had a mediocre final line, and the tying run was standing at home plate.

Fortunately for Jimenez, Chad Roe came in and did his Tommy Hunter "Bear Claw" imitation, and the Phillies' potential 5th run of the game was left stranded at 3rd base.

I give him a B+ overall tonight Patrick. Yes four runs allowed but also 0 walks and 8 K's including three in a row with two men on base. Gets a small bonus from me too for supporting his own cause with the hit he got. So a good night for the U man.

I think that Ubaldo simply ran out of gas in the 7th. Still, he did quite well until then. Fortunately, Chaz Roe came in with a full tank of gas.

By the way, Ubaldo was able to get an RBI, knocking in one of the runs, helping the Os win the game.

      6th straight game with 2 or fewer runs allowed

      By now · Posted

      Awesome research, thanks. I was a fan in 1974 but had forgotten that string of five shutouts.  This last two weeks of rotation excellence (and your list) is giving me flashbacks to the summer of love (1967), when I started to make game logs to savor the strings of shutouts and low-hit gems by Oriole starters. Looking back now at the game logs kept by Baseball-Reference (manually, without your sorting skills!), it's hard to identify exactly which streak so impressed my teenage fan-meter, or even which year. Certainly 1968 was all about low scoring league-wide.  Maybe it was the stretch 22-27 May 1967 featuring Phoebus, Bertaina, Barber, McNally, and Phoebus again (good old 4-man rotation!), including three scoreless outings. Or Hardin and Brabender joining Phoebus, McNally and Palmer from 15 to 20 September, 1967. What about 1969, with Cuellar, Lopez and Leonhard joining the previous cast of McNally, Phoebus, and Hardin, twirling 10 starts (13-22 June) while allowing only 12 runs.  Anyway, it feels rather historic to see this run of high-end pitching from an Orioles rotation. Here's a chart to recap the numbers on this streak in progress... Date Starter IP H ER ERA (14 G) totals: 81.67 59 19 2.09 21-Apr Irvin 6.2 4 0   22-Apr Suarez 5.2 4 0   23-Apr Rodriguez 4.1 11 7   24-Apr Kremer 5.1 3 2   26-Apr Burnes 6 3 1   27-Apr Irvin 7 4 0   28-Apr Suarez 4 7 4   29-Apr Rodriguez 5.2 5 0   30-Apr Kremer 7 4 2   1-May Burnes 6 4 2   2-May Bradish 4.2 4 1   3-May Irvin 6.1 2 0   4-May Means 7 3 0   5-May Kremer 6 1 0

      Is the 2024 team better than 2023’s?

      By now · Posted

      Somehow feels typical of Orioles to play up to the competition, and get burned by the pretenders... same with individual starting pitchers.

      Kremer is due for Regression

      By AlbNYfan · Posted

      It was very obvious ...he would also take a look at his hand frequently. On Saturday, watching a clip in the dugout after one of the HR's, Kremer went to give a high five, pulled back and took a look at his hand. I thought it strange, and I thought something was off. He always appeared to be one of the more enthusiastic celebrators. It would seem the coaches would notice and probably did, but thought nothing of it. Certainly didn't affect his game.

      Is the 2024 team better than 2023’s?

      By OriolesMagic83 · Posted

      I just looked thru their record a while ago.  Series against the Nats (2), White Sox, Marlins, Cardinals, Rockies and Angels makes their record of 1 win better than the O's way less impressive.  Their schedule coming up must be hell.
