Story lines:

• Trey Mancini still out with sore ribs after hitting the wall Saturday night
• JD Martinez returns to Boston lineup after a week absence
• Rubber match, chance to add a series win our 3rd consecutive weekend series (Yankees, Angels, Red Sox???)
• Last game with 28 man roster, cutdown to 26 tomorrow

Also - Odor still with team and batting fifth (?).

Kelvin not playing but provided the Gatorade bath to Robinson last night so he is active!

Hey, this not purely game related... but if any of you know anyone from the ad agency doing these lottery commercials, could you please ask them to knock it off with the nightmare fuel?  Thanks!

I’m at the game today, first time since 2019 and first time without my honey. Love these seats. Let’s go Os!

Pretty tough to pitch when you have to be almost perfect with this offensive offense the Orioles are employing. 

[Tony-OH]

Hey, hell of a play by Nevin there at 1B. Can't do much better!

[royalstillman]

Oh,come on. All is not lost,Odor leads off.

The offense should really apply for disability at this point.

[O's84]

Okay, they can't screw this up, can they?

[SteveA]

We blew it last inning,let's not blow it this inning.

[Tony-OH]

Hey, 1st and 2nd no outs. Who wants to guess they don't score? 

Nevin, Bemboom and Mateo.. sounds like a K, popup, and groun out.

Let’s see how they screw this up.
