Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuke on the beautiful OF assist after a base hit to left field by Pierzynski. Throw was right on the target to Ramon to nail Cabrera at the plate to end the inning.

Loewen's at 99 pitches for the game. Do you bring him out for the 6th? If Jim Johnson is available tonight, i'd bring him in. If not, I'd put Loewen out to start the 6th. Other than Thome, he has done reasonably well tonight at limiting the damage.

Quentin, Crede & Uribe are due up next inning for the Sox just as an FYI.

Obviously what the O's do in the bottom half of the inning has an impact too. If we edge closer, you may not want to push Loewen too much.

No, you pull Loewen after 99. He hasn't had great control and he's still coming back from the injury. Let him go out on 4 scoreless innings, because even if you send him out for the 6th, you gotta pull him after someone gets on.

Jim Johnson was warming up I would bring him in, but Loewen can go another one and he is looking strong the last few innings. We will see.

OMG Ramon blocked the plate!!! :eek::D

Well, not really... he left the runner a big tunnel between his legs that gave him direct access to the plate... but he got the tag down in time and made the play, so let's not worry about that...

Is this real? Did Ramon block the plate?

Yup. Scott's throw was absolutely perfect... so much so that it may have kind of forced him to but Ramon hung in there and actually took a decent hit after applying the tag.

By the way, I hope Trembley remembers that throw the next time he wants to replace Scott with Payton for defense. Payton would never have gotten that assist in a million years.

      I assume you're talking about about the 3-2 fastball that got hit for a grand slam, it was the 3 batters before that Baker walked and not even being competitive, that was the low point of the season for Me. It was Baker that put him in a Jackpot.

      Food prices at Camden Yards

      I think baseball's food concessions are largely an overpriced rip-off. The hot dog served at OPCY is the highest priced hot dog in the majors..In Miami you can get a hot dog at the park for 3 dollars.The entire price for attending a sporting event with a good seat is getting out of hand, and so is ALL entertainment.If you want a really good seat to see a top act you might have to take out a loan. Disneyland and Disney World are getting so expensive, that a middle class family of four simply is priced out of access.But back to baseball concessions. I dont eat meat, but I wouldn't buy a 9 dollar hot dog anywhere , let alone OPCY. I bring my food with me. It's the last line of affordability we're going to have in attending a ball game. Concession prices are unfair, but at least you can eat before the game...or  bring your own water and peanuts. Otherwise it's a shame...and it's wrong.

      What happens next? Mayo debut or Holliday back up?

      By Frobby · Posted

      Pretty much how I feel.

      I don't know what got into him. I wonder if he made an adjustment or someone helped "fix" something..

      I'd rather a thread by Roy saying that we should cut him now. The reverse jinx works both ways, so I think this thread is a biiiiiig mistake. That said, he was so good this series. Love that for him. On a broader point, this org does something right that's beyond the talent in the room. I assume it's advance scouting our opponents and preparation, but we're a step above.

      Food prices at Camden Yards

      By Orioles Jim · Posted

      It does tend to have the lowest (out the door) prices but buyer beware a bit. We used them for Opening Day and it was a bit of a debacle (the first private seller never delivered, then they got us a second “preferred seller” that also never delivered, and then FINALLY came through with a third “preferred seller” that came through, albeit it took more than a few minutes). Dealing with all of this, while waiting on hold, and missing the start of Opening Day festivities definitely sucked and made for a stressful situation.  But, yesterday, for just me, for a matinee game in which the out the door price was $9 and I was already going to be arriving midway through the 1st inning, it worked great. So it might just depend on your situation, but like I said, buyer beware.
