Tuesday, August 9 -- Orioles vs Blue Jays

[SteveA]

I once saw a Dave Parker vs Lee Smith at bat in a situation like this in the 9th, future HoF batter vs future HoF closer with 2 outs in the 9th, at Riverfront Stadium.  Still remember it 39 years later.  Smith got him to end the game.

I wonder if this is a similar at bat with a game in the line between 2 Hall of Famers.

I love how he desperately hugged that ball so he wouldn't drop it

Can’t believe I left this game!

Seen it a few times, but Bautista and Rutschman seem to have a really good connection. 

This is a special season.....not many like it.

No.

Remember when Bautista faced him in Toronto. 
 

That had to happen, for this to happen. Watching our Mountain grow up.

Just another laugher in Birdland. Hard to stay awake in the late innings of these one-sided games.

AMAZING O's.  We beat the odds
