Monday, August 2: Orioles visit the Yankees

[scOtt]

Roy is dancing in the streets! 2nd sac fly in a row! 6-1 O's!!!!

[SteveA]

We still can't get a damn hit with a runner in scoring position!

[Yossarian]

Two sac flies - that's how you clean up the bases.  Where is Firestone?

Bad idea by Urias, but it worked. Now a squeeze.

Why bad idea? Calculated risk to get in scoring position with 1 out and it paid off.

[WillyM]

Back to back sac flies.

Not as impressive as back to back solo homers, but they count for two runs just the same.

This. Very smart play.

4-0 lead and you walk the two leadoff batters. Please get rid of this guy. 

Pancakes walked six batters in his nine-inning no-hitter of the Reggie Jackson A's.

The other team can't get a damn hit at all--it prefers to walk its runners into scoring position.

OK, I was about to ask whether there was anybody warming in the bullpen, because I knew that he was going to lose the no-hitter and he did, and is anybody warming, because there should’ve been somebody warming to start the evening and I didn’t hear the announcer say anything

His glove in the corner is plus plus. 

This is why DJ won't be on next year's team: defense matters.

[spiritof66]

I've enjoyed Lopez's performance, but I've now had enough Lopez for tonight.

Yeah so they just got Valdes up and warming after the Gallo hit, which means we’ve got to give him at least a couple of batters to get warmed up, and so far it’s not looking good. 

[LA2]

Lopez over 100 pitches. ERA just snuck under 6.
