Kinda disrespectful to Justin Turner don't you think?

The man hasn't even retired yet, what if he wants to return to the O's and wear his old number?

Who hits their first major league HR?  Stowers or Rutschman?

Stowers looked “hitter-ish” on that line drive, oppo field, double. Instead of trying to pull it he drove that pitch oppo to the gap with authority.

In case anyone missed it and would like to see. Notice how hard he hit that ball and how it went straight to the gap. 106 MPH to the oppo gap at a 10 degree launch angle is impressive. That's real power.

Just to be clear, the pitch was 95.7 MPH. The EV was 106, per the Gameday feed. Rocket.

I was in Bowie last year when he hit an oppp HR over the scoreboard. It was a hanging breaking ball but still.

I enjoyed this clip showing his family getting emotional. Cool stuff.

Thanks, I thought that looked low for as hard as it was hit. I looked at the wrong part of the pitch line. Thanks for the correction. 106 oppo at 10 degrees is really, really impressive.
