Looked like a playable ball off the bat.  Glad it wasn't.

That double would of been out of Camden Yards

Layva to Valaika to Mountcastle... rolls right off the tongue like Tinkers to Evers to Chance, doesn't it?

3 scoreless.  The Tigers broke the Astros offense this weekend.

Wade LeBlanc, who started the season with the O's, has 3 shutout innings for the Cardinals so far tonight.   It's only the Diamondbacks, though.

I feel like this is the first time all year that I'm watching an athletic O's defense that can really help the pitcher - with the possible exception of the catcher.

No Chance.

I mean there's nobody named Chance.  Otherwise, yes - it's exactly the same.

I thought the same thing......all defense team out there tonight.

I'm not big on bunting, but I would have had Urias bunt.

[Yossarian]

Why would you not have bunted Urias in that situation?

Palmer said it straight up.  You got to play for the big inning against a team with Houston’s offense.  Can’t give away outs.

I wish they would DFA him. I have been wanting the Orioles to do that all season.

I'm assuming Palmer saw the lineup card.  This team is not putting together a big inning.

Is it still that every team gets an All-Star?
