That TB pitcher is whining to himself I guess.  He had quite a conversation a few minutes ago.  Even the Yankees, we  do not have to take that from.   He needs to grow up.   He is not unhittable at all, he just thinks he is.

Well when you pitch to an ERA under 3 in the MLB you can start thinking you are the man.

Tell you what. If Hall can't control walks and get pitches below the belt, he won't be pitching much for the O's the rest of the way.

He won't be pitching much anyway.  I'm sure he's near his innings cap.

This is not a good choice by Hyde 

[O's84]

3 runs seems like 6 runs.  Feels like a blow out honestly.

A couple of bad walks to Taylor Walls.

Hall is just not going to make it through much more.  Just a matter of when Hyde makes the decision.

He's not going to have success unless he stops elevating pitches.

Hyde one batter too late. 3 runs is not insurmountable but getting out of hand.

Every time we make contact, its hard contact. Things are about to change.

10 runs yesterday. Lots of game left, fubes.

Too little too late …

I liked the 6 K's ..but Lets face it...he left some pitches up and they found the holes...that stolen base call hurt him...but I liked a lot of what I saw...he's gonna be fine..

Congrats to DL for making it to the show. Excited to see him going forward. I think some work out of the bullpen might do him well and allow him to focus on what works for him.

This loss is on management. It is not on DL Hall. The guy can only give his best effort. All you can ask from a ballplayer is to give it your all. If you just don't have the skill then that is on management to not run your out there. Should be in the minors.

Let's hope.

McClanahan at 67 pitches through 4. Let's get him to throw some pitches and get to their bullpen.
