Friday, July 15: Orioles take double digit winning streak into the Tropicana Dome

[SteveA]

So Trey took the HR chain off at the end of the inning.   I guess that's the etiquette, you wear it until someone else hits a HR, or the team finishes batting.  (The other 8 guys have to take it off because they are going out to play the field, but Trey is the DH so he could have kept wearing it).

Just now, justD said:

Is Garceau doing this game in person? I used to explain away his calls with the fact he was doing them from OPACY but that Hays foul ball call was awful.

I mean, man, I was so excited bc it sounded like he was so sure about it.  Boo. 

Yep, he's there.   Radio still isn't travelling, with the exception of one series where Paul McCartney was at Oriole Park.   But TV has been travelling for a while, and Garceau mentioned there being Oriole fans on the plane.

What a play by Jorge!   Racing all out with his back to the plate, tracking that ball against the damn ceiling.   Impressive.

Nice grab Mateo. Almost ended up on the warning track

[justD]

Mateo!!!

And again with the call, geez that was such an amazing play but you could’ve slept thru it!

[Roll Tide]

A good fielder catches that ball. Surprised to see Santander in LF

[seak05]

Matteo bailed out Santander earlier in the inning, but couldn’t bail him out that time.

Santander is probably at the top of my trade list 

[SteveA]

Huge K!

[justD]

Wow the movement on that pitch gave me chills. 

[DEOriolesfan]

RAMON!

[Tom13206]

Urias!!! 2-0

[Roll Tide]

Nice finish by Wells ! Looks like a veteran! Urias with a bomb, I didn’t think he had power but he’s hit some long ones.

1-2-3 due up.

Hey you blokes! It's Friday!

Garceau just called Blake Snell "Nate Snell".  Nate was an obscure Oriole reliever 25 or 30 years ago.

Palmer caught it and subtly corrected Garceau by referring to Snell by his first name "Blake" a few seconds later.
