vs. RED SOX, 9/29

[O's84]

Wow, one of the most inexcusable plays I've seen ends the season.  What a disgrace!

What the hell just happened...

And that's it.  Our attempt at our second sweep of the season, and to surpass the 1988 Orioles' record, falls just short.

54-108... one step forward, two steps back.

See you in the next game thread, 146 days from now.   Orioles vs Braves, in the Braves' brand new spring training ballpark in North Point in Sarasota County.

They remembered who they were.

I mean you lose you lose, but like that.  I mean it shouldn't be as surprising as you normally would given this team, but even so, Really, Really, Really?!

Wilkerson is the defensive star for both teams. You don't see that very often,.

Thanks for the company, everybody. 

[Chavez Ravine]

That was a fitting sign off.

Learning moment, I guess.

Right up there with the 2-run sac fly

This time has a low baseball IQ, but that was a even a new low for them.

Now I can channel my inner Rogers Hornsby and stare out the window until next season.

We were lucky to still be in the game after several other miscues and being outhit-and-walked 15-8. It will be remembered for Wilkerson's catch. Red Sox fans were genuinely awed and will never be able to erase the image. It was also nice to prevent E-Rod's W: No taunts in the future about the O's giving up a 20-game winner.

The bullpen was going to blow it at some point anyway--Armstrong and Givens almost did and Tate was on-track to.

That said, the incredible catch must have overexcited or frozen Wilkerson's brain--he may have still been recovering. Glad he now has the whole offseason to thaw.

Is it over?  Can I go now?

 

Snoopy is da man!

If not for Alex Cora and them cheating Sawx, we might have won right?  Asking for a Man (Fred).  

Question for @Frobby - should we now be awarded W's for all of the games that we played the 'stros and Sox in their home parks?
