[Gurgi]

This loss today will be one of the most painful of the season.   Arggghhh.  I dont know if my nerves can take this crap much more.

But we have to keep her because it makes us better people doing it.  

You can't criticize her because she's a woman working in a male-dominated industry.

[O's84]

What a tease.

[Alasdaire]

I don't think Melanie realizes that a swing can be checked but the ball can still be called a strike.

Well McKenna has been a big help this game. 

[Gurgi]

Ha.   This game is going to wear me out.   I think maybe caring about the games is not good for me.  For four years I could watch games and just be bemused by the result.   Actually caring about the results is painful.   

[O's84]

Urias seems to swing at balls way inside more often than anyone on the team.  He did it again and thus started the ab in a 0-1 hole.

Mike Elias betting against his team.   Bonus for best farm system, not making the playoffs.

They miss the playoffs they are in the lottery for yet another #1 overall pick.

Man I hope they walk this off.  I have had a ticket to the Sunday game in Williamsport for weeks and I really wanted to see them in that intimate environment AND riding high. I dread the Red Sux coming in while they're not hitting and the bullpen looking weak.

Baker > Krehbiel. Change my mind.

That's awesome! It's a small stadium up there isn't it? Be like watching a big league game in a Double-A stadium.

O's have score 2 runs today, Houston has score 21!

Today and yesterday were frustrating as a fan. That, as others 

I would say that it's not the part of the lineup coming up in the 9th, but there's really not any part of the lineup that's hitting right now.

Oh no, the O's are going to fall behind in the Pythagorean win race.
