In his between-games interview, Hyde said that Santander was removed from the first game due to an oblique issue, and will not play in game two.

So far today, Cobb and Santander have gone down. I sure hope there won't be any more during the second game.

3-up, 3-down, on 11 pitches ...... just as I had expected.

Good first inning for Lopez.

I can't believe that the Royals left him unprotected.

Garcia starts the first inning ball - ball - ball.

Then he goes strike - strike - strike - strike - strike - strike - strike - strike - strike.

Three outs, and on to inning # 2.

[HowAboutThat]

Garcia has 12 pitches after one inning, Lopez 30 after two.

meanwhile, how long a leash does Stewart have, isn’t he o23 by now, with several walks?

[WillyM]

Mountcastle!

Orioles 2, Yankees 0.

[MurphDogg]

Bomb for Mountcastle.

Garcia not putting in a good bid for a Gold Glove this year.

Ruiz safe at first, still nobody out.

0-16, OBP still over .300. 

If Santander's injury is serious I expect he will be in the lineup pretty much everyday. Even if Santander is fine, would rather see him in the lineup often at DH if Iglesias can play short or first over Nunez (or in left with Mountcastle at first).

Geoff Arnold ain't from around here, based on how he just pronounced Havre de Grace.

Mountcastle!!!

If Santander has to go on the DL I expect we see Diaz up.

I am in favor of letting him have some hacks, and I don’t particularly care where he plays, but at some point he’s gotta start getting hits.

nunez’ defense is really bad, he’s basically a designated hitter or nothing, So I’m fine with giving Stewart his ABs for a while

I'd seen enough of Dwight Smith, was happy to see him gone and Stewart get another chance.  I'm sure Stewart wasn't going to play both games today until Santander got hurt.

It seems that if draft order were solely determined by this season, the Os would draft 13th?

I wonder how deep the draft is next year?

Oh yes don’t misunderstand: I’m happy to see Stewart out there flailing. I don’t think he’s any good but he needs a long look to make sure.

and he’s not the only one. Too many guys should be up but aren’t.
