Gnats vs. Orioles 8-14

[Chavez Ravine]

Strasburg is leaving 92 mph fastballs up in the meaty part of the zone.

[O's84]

I hope he's okay.

We really need to bring Gary in via Zoom to make these home runs calls though. That call was just pathetic.

The broadcasters are, to a man, awful.

[Bahama O's Fan]

If we beat Strasburg tonight, when would be the last time that a pitcher has lost two games on the same day?

[Moose Milligan]

Not wishing for injury, but this is awesome if Strasburg is yanked early.

[eddie83]

He is done.

I spoke too quick

[scOtt]

Feel bad for Stra but glad he's gone.

[allquixotic]

I have nothing against Strasburg, and he's a talent... sucks to see the guy having that issue. It looks like he might be shut down for a while. REALLY sucks for the club to have to pull him after 2 outs.

[Philip]

Wow. Gotta feel for him. Does anyone know the specific problem yet?

Wouldn't Strasburg qualify for the loss since Santander homered against him? Man, that'd be tough.

[Chavez Ravine]

Thumbs and toes oddly take forever to heal properly.

Strasburg coming out changes the complexion of the game completely. 7 plus innings from their pen (plus the three plus this afternoon) and two more games this weekend.

Drinking Kirkland Irish Whiskey and ginger beer now. Highly recommend the Kirkland Irish Whiskey, as good as Jameson and cheaper.

I don't mind Ben as a color/analyst guy, but the play by play is really awful. I didn't realize how much I like Gary til he's gone.

My sense of time has been fractured by lockdown. This game and the one before it are not helping.

For the last month and a half I've been on a work-one-week off-the-next schedule so our office areas are more than half empty and  we can social distance to some extent despite being in a cubical type setting.

And even though I'm only working half as much, at the end of a week I do work, like today, I am totally wiped out when I get home on Friday.  More than I used to be when. I worked every week.  Guarantee I'll sleep til 10am tomorrow. Might doze off here on the recliner watching this game.

Bye bye Stras.  Don't want to see anyone hurt.  But I love getting into the opponent's bullpen early in the first game if a series
