Wednesday July 27: Jackson Holliday's Oriole Park Intro and O's try to win 3rd home series in a row from Rays

[LA2]

Haha, today Adley has scored once on a wild pitch after moving up on a sac fly and once on an error after getting HBP. He must be one of those useless fleas that Weaver used to cuss about.

Whatever way possible! Where did Adley get hit?

In the arm  Right off the back elbow and straight down.   Beaver on Beaver violence.

And Santantander was in the knee.

Is it just me, or does Mancini look like he's about 10 or 15 pounds lighter than he was a year ago?  His arms look a lot skinnier than what I remember seeing at the HR Derby. Could that explain the drop in power?

Checking in on the minors: Cowser, Henderson, Kjerstad, and Ortiz have all homered

There goes his career as an adventurer.

Just a little too soft to get though.

[Yossarian]

Come on, Mountcastle. Snap out of this slump.

Wells, lower back discomfort.....  Yeah... that sounds good.

Initial word from the team is lower back discomfort.

[LA2]

Wish we had gotten more than one run last inning.

Not a doctor, but I thought lats were on the sides, and obliques in front of the lats.

That Wells was going for his lower left back gives me a little cramp hope.    I feel like RHP's stress their right sides more so than their lefts with that ungodly pitching act.

Things like "discomfort" usually aren't good

First ~15 innings of MLB work, Vespi's K-BB% in the neighborhood of the team leaders.

I like Vespi--and Baker. The second line of the O's BP is incomparably better than the last few years.

They are a few minutes behind touting the Minors guys in the booth....Gunnar has gone yard again.

10 total bases his first 3 times up.
