When I think about the relatively few 5 game regular season series in Orioles history, the one that comes to mind most for me is the one with the Yankees in August, 1980.   We drew over 250,000 fans to Memorial Stadium for the 5 games, and as I recall 4 of them were quite close.   It was an intense playoff level atmosphere and the Orioles won 3 of 5.   We wound up winning 100 games that year but failing to make the playoffs.   Scott McGregor out-duelled Luis Tiant 1-0 in one of the games.   The only one I attended was a game the O's lost, I remember Gossage nailing down the save.

And we get Melanie Newman doing the play by play on Apple TV.

Hey SteveA! Really looking forward to this one. Our O's on Apple TV+!

[LA2]

Let's go Os!

Whitlock made Trey look pretty bad with that changeup.

[Morgan423]

Gonna watch GRod go for the Tides tonight, I think.

Top 1 Melanie was giving Orioles hype competing with Yankees talking points as befitting a MASN broadcast, and whatever other miscellaneous Apple contractor she is partnering with didn't really go with it.

I'm glad to get a control of her work when we have reason to believe she is seeing the game action as it unfolds.

[Emory Eagle]

Are the Orioles aware that they are allowed to score runs in the first inning?

[Just Regular]

I missed introductions in the beginning...who else is in the booth with her?
