Why did Severino not tag on that fly ball? 

i was wondering that myself. Maybe he didn't want to be embarrassed by being unable to score if it fell in. Anyway, bad baserunning, and it cost.

Nice call!

Too many change ups in the same location. The book on Sisco is hard up and in and offspeed low and away but he left that change up too much and Sisco made an adjustment.

I don’t think he thought it was going to be caught and went too far toward third it seems. 

I couldn’t tell how far down the line he went. He was right not to tag but may have been too far down the line, not sure.

That would have been 2 out so it doesn't really matter if it's 1st and 3rd or 1st and 2nd. They still need a base hit to score. I'm OK with him going halfway there to give them a chance to score 2 if it gets over the OF head.

You might be able to score from third on a passed ball.

And if you're Severino, you might not score from second on a single.

He should have tagged up and taken third.

I'm pretty impressed with the O's these last two days. I didn't think we'd have much of a chance vs Snell and Glasnow. 

[Philip]

Well, I guess Phillips has removed his head from the block for now, and Hess is most likely under the axe...for now.

[Tony-OH]

Phillips was much better in the second innings of hitting his spots and staying out of the middle of the plate. That was the first in a long time i can remember thinking that's a good bog league innings out of him.

Neither did they.
