They can’t hold a candle to the drunks in bean town.

Even worse was working in downtown Baltimore in the mid-2000’s after the Red Sox won the World Series for the first time since 1918 during any Boston series at OPACY. 

They make Yankees fans seem reasonable.

Tangent time.

Yesterday we had a 4 foot plus blacksnake in the screened in back porch/pool.  I help it on its way since I don't want it running afoul of the pool.

Tonight its back and it brought a friend.

Now the fact that I've got two blacksnakes that live near the house is known.  I've found their shed skins for years.  But suddenly hanging out inside the screened in area is new.  Hope I don't find a dead snake in the pool anytime soon.  They do a good job keeping the critter population (frogs/lizards) down.

Have the Orioles committed an error this year that hasn't cost them unearned runs? 

[Il BuonO]

Lyles up to 85 pitches.

It's hard to believe that they have more shutouts (2) than times being shutout (1).

Oh, it seems like the Orioles got their run for the game. We'll need to hold them to no runs. lol

Orioles pitching with their best start in years and still on pace to lose 100 games thanks to a feeble offense.

It’s still early, but this is hard to watch.

Oh, they are pretty little (well the one isn't exactly little) black snakes.  Harmless to you or me.  The big one was shaking his tail at me last night, like it was a rattler.  Was pretty funny.

[Il BuonO]

Great pitch for strike three.

[Tony-OH]

Nice job by Bemboom framing that one and nice job by Lyles to hit his spot.

The snakes are a lot quieter than the frogs. 

 

But I won't post any pictures.

So does Nottingham get called up before Rutschman?  I wouldnt have predicted that.

Mostly because the shots came out like crap. 

It's a bit too dark to get clear shots of them.

They are still out there.

Been a busy week for wildlife, I've got a rabbit with a burrow next door and I've seen hawks and multiple owls.
