O's go for 18 over tonight

[backwardsk]

Technically it's not possible. Only 19 or 21. Or worse.

Hmmm. I think the potential outcomes are 14, 16, 18, or 20 over.

They are 17 right now if they go 0-4 they are 13 over, 1-3 they are 15 over, 2-2 they are 17 over, 3-1 19 over and 4-0 21 over.

It's a three game series, no?

Looks right to me, for this series.

...unless a game is called for humidity. :scratchchinhmm:

Totally random but I wonder if the stifling heat/humidity affects teams from out west when they come here. Probably not, but it is much different in the crisp air out there.

I do think we have the advantage in that weather.

I've been 18 over many times. Unfortunately, I am quite often over par by even more than that. :laughlol:

I shoot par every time I play. Unfortunately I always have 6 or 7 holes still to play.

Nope. 3 game series. 15, 17, 19, 21.

I'm an idiot. 14, 16, 18, 20. You're all right. This addition and subtraction is hard sometimes!

[ChipTait]

57 - 40 = 17 over (Where they are today.)

58 - 40 = 18 over

59 - 40 = 19 over

60 - 40 = 20 over

So they could certainly be 20 games over .500 with a series sweep.

[ChipTait]

And there you have it!

[MDtransplant757]

Tigers are beating Boston as well! They just need to keep losing, and the O's need to burry them

[Jagwar]

And there you have it!

What a weird way to win a game.

I suppose if it's a team that travels a lot to the mugginess... they get somewhat used to it. Like the Angels playing the Texans, etc. But for divisions like the NL West, they travel to NO cities in high-humidity areas. So I do believe that would be a pretty big drag on their performance.

When I first moved back to Maryland as an adult (from Northern California), I arrived in the summer. My primary thought for about three months was: What's the deal with this air? I never remember experiencing high-humidity Maryland summer heat. It was alien to me. I told myself: I can only do ONE summer of this, then I'm heading back to Sonoma County. Well, that was over 25 years ago now. Maryland rules. We've got oceans, mountains and more flora and fauna varieties than any other state, I believe. Maryland gave the world Babe Ruth. Old Bay. The Orioles. Oh yeah: We've TWICE laid claim to the capital city of the United States (Baltimore and Annapolis). Many of America's greatest universities call Maryland home. We have the Chesapeake Bay, the largest estuary in the U.S. So... ya know. We got that going for us.
