Rays vs O's.

I like these early starts. I’ll say that. 

[Philip]

So was the run that scored on the first Home run earned?

Is Sisco fat? On TV he sure looks a bit tubby round the waist.

I get it, your narrative about how Sisco's defense is unplayable at Catcher has fallen apart so now you are making comments about his appearance.

Nifty.

[Chavez Ravine]

Yikes, Milone has 45 pitches already.

Just tuned in. Why Hunter and Bordo?  

Garceau & Bordy.

Garceau is the primary PBP guy, Brown subbed for him over the weekend.

Ben went back to Louisiana to batten down for two hurricanes.   Bordy is the backup color guy.

If you don't like them, the game is on FS1 as well.   The crowd noise is a lot louder in the FS1 broadcast.

Jim Hunter no longer has a role with MASN or the Orioles.

Officially?  Before Covid he was suppose to do some stuff. Not any games.

I got off work at 6:30.  Got out to my car in the parking lot just in time for the first pitch.   Listened to Kevin Brown and Brett Hollander driving home.   Brown did a good job calling the Nunez HR, good description, high level of excitement when it went out.

That was a long inning.

1 unearned run due to Valaika error.

As we approach the halfway point of the season, this game is a showcase for two of the leading MVP candidates:   Anthony Santander and Nick Lowe.

As well as two of the leading AL Manager of the Year candidates:  Brandon Hyde and Kevin Cash.

You're right. Somehow I (mis)remembered him being axed entirely. Weird.

I hate these 730 home starts. I get up real early for work. 

I thought I heard Arnold when I took dog out for a litttle ? 

[Chavez Ravine]

That was flashy.

I think what you said is accurate in essence. I find it hard to believe if he had multiple years left on his deal they hardly use him for 2 years.
