Would it be a bad idea for Adley to start going the other way?  He's hit so many balls into the shift.

Aren't they doing away with the shift next season? I have never been a fan of the shift.

So, when is Rutschman gonna start hitting? 

You know Trout hasn’t had a hit in 23 at bats, because it’s baseball.

Good players, teams do just enough to win.  The O's and players like Kremer do just enough to lose.

Good players and teams win plenty of games easily so they don't have to worry about getting the lucky bounces in the tight ballgames that they do play.

I thought Kremer had a reasonably good outing.   Tough first inning but good after that.  He certainly kept us in the game.

Can someone explain to new o’s game watcher this year why the starters are pulled so early? Pitch count at mid 60s?

Kremer just got back from the injured list (IL), so they're limiting the amount of pitches he's throwing.

I'm guessing because he is coming back from injury.  If the O's had any starting pitching depth, he would have made a start in Norfolk, not Baltimore.

Nice swing and hit by Odor.

I thought that but wells pitched 62 yesterday as well not even getting to the 4th

Got something going now.

Wow, big double from the unlikely source, Ryan McKenna!

[Moshagge3]

Zach Plesac's stuff matches up well with McKenna's skill set.

[Moshagge3]

Mateo has no clue up there.

[OriolesMagic83]

Here we go again, not scoring w/ a runner on 3rd.

[Beysbol]

I'm so tired of Mateo
