Jones just laced a solid single to LF. Hustling out the box you could see he was thinking two out the gate.

 

Jones has hit two balls on the screws tonight. Got robbed the first at bat on a laser one hopper by the 2B behind 2B on a shift.

Rizer is batting for Stowers who is obviously hurting from that HBP.

I’m hoping since he did not come out immediately that his hand is okay. But man, the luck of this team. Can’t play any amount of baseball without multiple top prospects going down to injury.

I don't think for a second that the Orioles do anything with fans in mind. Probably some computer program spit out the dates in which Rodriguez' most likely innings would be maximized and Friday popped out. 

I guess in the end it doesn't matter but as a fan it has become increasingly obvious that the Orioles regime under Elias does not care about the fans experience at any level. How much you wanna guess their affiliates other than Norfolk will even have a center field camera? 

Oh come on, FanFest since Elias has arrived have all been awesome.

The Orioles have no understanding about generating excitement from their fans.

Hell, after 22 years, they've cut me off from having credentials so they really could less about this site or the diehards that make it up. 

So they have really gotten no better ,even with the sons Old man used to threaten the Baltimore Sun editor to stop advertising in the paper if Rosenthal or someone else wrote a negative article. This is when they used to advertise in the paper Sad .

This is one of the only Tides games I've actually watched via milb tv. There's enough interesting guys there and at Bowie and I seem to have a particularly unquenchable thirst for baseball this year.

Anyway, I thought Smith looked pretty good. At least he got off to a decent start. Diplan did his thing. Peralta pretty strong 4 innings. 

Diaz didn't get hurt and got on base twice.

Bottom half of the lineup is pretty weak.

Uhhhhh........ Cut off access after 22 years to the founder and leader of a group of the most die-hard, dedicated, and loyal fans of the team? WTH. Did they give you a reason?

    • Oh, I thought you were taking about his hitting in high leverage situations. 
    • Frustrating sure, but boring is not what I would I say. We do steal bases at times. I would like for us to play more small ball sometimes and it is frustrating to see us be so homerun happy. I think with Westy back, we will see a resurgence of timely hitting as that is very contagious.   We saw that at the beginning of the year. Amazing sight to see for sure. I think the most disheartening thing that really shocked me is the apathy and outright disgust I’ve seen from O’s fans toward their team. Perhaps we have been spoiled? No idea. Maybe expectations were too high? No idea, but frankly, a lot of yall focusing on other things and simply not watching/posting would make next season a lot more enjoyable. This is the first time since 96-97 where we make the playoffs in back to back years and you guys have been acting like some real lame jerks this whole dang season. Frankly, yall should be ashamed of yourselves. We are an incredibly young team and with that come highs and lows, but yall don’t see that. You just love to complain and moan and bloviate. Where’s the heart? Where’s the loyalty? Where’s the gratitude? You’d think with all this team has overcome, especially being so young, y’all would be happy, but no. So go off on your little bike rides or whatever. Go watch a movie if this saga seems boring to you. I don’t care. Just for once this season, keep your immense negativity to yourself.
    • Really an amazing run, 4 straight years. I completely agree with the ranking, too. There's no way Kjerstad is still a prospect though, right? 45 days is the cutoff and he's played in 48 games.
    • i think we all are going to have ptsd from that 9th inning for a while,it was that brutally bad . they need to do some special to get us to forget about it
    • wow,did gunnar and adley have to do this last season? 
    • I suggested that earlier but I think it's probably a bad play with no out. The O's have like 85% probability of scoring. There is a huge downside risk of Mullins popping up the bunt for a double play. He could also whiff on the bunt making at least Holliday an easy out. With one out and only 65% probability of scoring it's a much better play. I think if Santander and Mullins were reversed in the lineup Hyde may have done it but not when you have two shots to get the run in.
