Interesting, I'd thought it'd be more than that.  I guess it had the distance but not the height necessary to clear walls.

Talk about airmail.

Watkins really f...ed that up.   If he scores it is going to hurt.

Holy cow that's the worst pick off throw I've ever seen lol

A robust .150 BA over the last 4.5 games now, to go with a sterling .217 OBP. 

That’s nearly a week of the whole team hitting collectively like…2022 Brett Phillips (.144 / .217).

[Gurgi]

Adley put a high glove up.  Watkins missed it entirely and threw the ball right down the middle and froze the hitter.   Not a good pitch but a great result.   We are still scoreless.

That's amazing. If we even had last year's offense at this point we'd be better off. At least Hays and Mountcastle were hitting last year

I think the Orioles are in a horrible hitting drought.   I really think they need some fresh bats up here to liven things up.  Stowers, Henderson and maybe even platooning DJ Stewart against right handers might be helpful.  Because now we are just flat.

Gapper!

Hays finally gets a hit.  Can we cash it in?

Umpire called that real real late.  Awful look but lucky for the Orioles

[Gurgi]

How the hell was that a base hit?  LOL.   Pure luck.

I hate that freaking decision.......very annoying.
