Sunday, October 2: last road game, rainy rubber match in the Bronx

[LA2]

Let's get some of those runs that Judge failed to produce. They're hanging around there somewhere.

Dogs, Baker is the man yo!

I would rather Perez be brought in for the 9th instead of Bautista.  Let the big man get his rest.

I would bet we don't see Bautista today, even if the Ys tie it up.

Tate is pitching the nineth. Not feeling good about that.

Fangraphs posted a bit of a chat with him today.

He seems like a nice sort.

Go O’s! Made my year  

“I won’t back down”. 
 

5th anniversary of Tom Petty’s death.

Unlike last season, Tate didn't get unsettled by the bad call and came right back with the same pitch moved a few inches over to satisfy the ump and wrap up the game. Great series overall for the O's. Warning to the Bronx as to what we will be bringing next season.

Hyde will be manager of the year.

As one would expect from the O's Clemente Award candidate.

Sure, it's been his to lose since the All Star break.

Maris was a Yankee when he broke the record.  That might be a factor.

Also the Maris son is all "This is the real record" kinda guy which is a narrative the Yankees would like to push.

Good point. My current stance is I’d prefer them to share the 61 record for a few more seasons.
