Orioles - Yankees Game 2

[eddie83]

DJ HR top of 1st. 

Sloppy defense bottom of inning. 

 

[eddie83]

More awful defense. 

[eddie83]

Short hop throw by Mountcastle on tag up. Short hop throw at plate by Iglesias on play at home. Would have been out. Bad throw home by Mullins leads to runners advancing.

At least DJ Stewart saw to it that the Orioles would not get shut out in back-to-back games.

Disrespectful tag-up there on mountcastle. That will continue to happen. I don’t speak hyperbolically when I say that I could have made that throw. It was routine.

And we have a winner!

A good week later than I was expecting.

Someone saying they had a better arm that him? 

[eddie83]

Not sure why Iglesias was not given an error. Good throw and it’s easy out. Thats not a fielders choice to me.

What do I win?

Yep.

And you might be right for all I know, I've never seen you throw.

Did Akin get hurt? What the heck happened to him?

[eddie83]

Teams will test Mountcastle but throw wasn’t loopy just offline. May get forced out of OF anyway if all these OF’s work out. Be nice problem to have.

40 pitches one inning. Didn’t want to push

39 pitches in the first inning, they didn't want to subject his arm to more.

Three bad throws, and two of them were still potentially catchable but we couldn't do that either.   Led to a 4 run inning.   Could have been maybe 2 runs and 20 pitches if not for our bad defense.

At least Davis is playing to keep people’s minds off Ryan’s arm.
