o   I found one.  On April 14th of 1965, Paul Blair and Curt Blefary each collected their 1st Major League hits.   https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/BAL/BAL196504140.sh

Remember, only the Orioles can't score. with no outs and bases full.

 

o

 

That's the first time in franchise history in which the Orioles scored a run with the bases loaded and nobody out.

Even before they moved to Baltimore in 1954, the Browns never did in 52 seasons from 1902-1953, and the Brewers never did it in 1901.

Willie Mays started his career going 1-for-26 in 1951. 

He was able to turn around enough to claim the National League Rookie of the Year award in the National League that season.

Cal had a really bad start in ‘82.   7 for 60 but won ROY.    He was 5 for 39 in a Sept. call up in ‘81, so 12 for 99 overall before he turned it around.

Well, he didn't exactly have much to work with last year so I gave him a pass. I get what he's trying to do, but I think he has to make adjustments when it's clear his pitcher lost it. The problem is that Castro has struggled so bad against lefties this year and Hyde doesn't seem to trust Fry.

I think the problem was letting Sulser try a second inning. I think he’s ok for four outs or X number of pitches but Hyde Almost always leaves guys in too long.

I was OK with it. The walk to JD was borderline intentional with the base open. He then walks Bogaerts. That's really the first sign he might be in trouble. You could take him out but as you said Sulser is the better matchup. Didn't work out but I'm OK with the thinking.

      The outfield might be slick from all the rain. I think that can influence lineup decisions.

      Rutschman 2nd half OPS .585 - McCann’s 2nd half OPS .785

      By e16bball · Posted

      I’ve been rending my garments over Adley and his struggles for months now. But I will say that it seems like a bit of an odd time to come together as a group on the notion of benching him — just as he’s been starting to show some signs of being Adley again.  Over the last week of the season, Adley had a 50% hard hit rate and an average EV of 89.9 MPH. Those numbers absolutely dwarf what he was doing for months, when he was sitting at more like a 26% HH rate and an 85 MPH EV. Anecdotally, I can’t even remember the last time we saw Adley drive a ball into the left-center gap like he did multiple times against MIN. That’s Adley at his very best, and it was a sight for sore eyes.  I’m not sold that he’s 100% back, and I would still stick with McCann catching Burnes tomorrow (especially since using Adley as the DH is viable with a LHP starter in Ragans). But I sincerely doubt we can run the table without at least a few stretches of Adley being Adley — so I think this recent spurt is probably enough to warrant sending him out there every day still, in hopes that he really is getting it locked back in.

      Apparently, if you just waited to buy tickets, you could just basically go for free. Well done orioles.

      Well, they likely would not have drafted an overslot SS with the second round pick if they had taken another HS SS first overall, so would you rather have Henderson and Rutschman or just Witt?

      It’s my understanding that nationally televised games are usually blacked out. Consider a free trial subscription of Fubo if they are still offering it.

      Playoff Bullpen Usage

      By OsFanSinceThe80s · Posted

      The Orioles starters absolutely have to do better against the Royals. You can't ask this bullpen to pitch most of the game and expect to win. Right now I probably trust Coulombe the most and Soto (which I never would have guessed a couple weeks back). Perez has been really shaky recently to the point I'm wondering is he nursing a tired arm or minor injuey. Cano hasn't been good as well and O's really need him to get back into a groove. And Akin is usually trustworthy, but only starting the inning clean.
