Stowers looks like he's in high school

He does, man. I had my hair dyed partly blonde when I was in high school in 1999. Now, I have no hair.

Good play by Bichette to get Mateo

Meatball City.

Guerrero is good at hitting baseballs

[Just Regular]

If Berrios gets to Stowers again, I'm going to be hoping Tony's reports that he's seen games pitchers can make Stowers look bad on high heat early, but he adjusts and punishes them later bears out.    Berrios good stuff tonight and obviously in steamroller mode, except when he feels like drilling Austin Hays.

Will Bautista or Wells answer this series?

Certainly better than Zimmerman is at throwing them.

Now that Spenser Watkins is in the minors, Zimmermann has a case for worst pitcher in baseball. 

[eddie83]

He just is not competitive right now. Send him down or put him in the pen and see if he can work on it. Heard somewhere he thought may be tipping pitches. This isn’t going to work. And yes I know we have no answers to replace him.

I'm not sure he's the worst on the O's.  We've got Austin Voth to consider.

I think that in most cases tipping pitches isn't really happening and it's used as an excuse.

I don't buy that other teams can figure out he's tipping pitches during the game but the O's can't detect it after the fact using game film.

52 hits last 30.1 innings. 

[Yossarian]

Cowser and Mayo each with a HR tonight.  Mayo has 3 his.

I agree.

I should’ve specified starting pitcher.

Are there a few of our announcers on the covid restricted list? I haven’t caught all the action this week. Has an explanation been given as why Roch is doing color?
