Opening Day at Fenway!

[Moose Milligan]

Should be 2 out.  Dammit.

[dystopia]

Why does it always seem like there’s a botched fly ball on opening day?

[Ripken]

I knew we should have started Frazier in Center.  Damn.

[Moose Milligan]

It would make sense that the immensely punchable Justin Turner would end up on the Red Sox.  Match made in heaven.

How is it opponents are always so good at executing RISP productive outs.  I can't remember the last time I saw that happen with the O's.

Yeah.  Kind of shocking Josh Donaldson doesn't play for Boston.

I closed on my new house on opening day.   

Congrats!   How’s it going with the old house?

It certainly wasn't this year.

The Mullins play was a very tough one, but one he normally makes.

Time to find out which commercials will annoy me the most.

Had a cash offer full price after 6 days.  He got cold feet so the backup offer is coming today, will start that up after another showing this afternoon to see if they make an offer.   It's a definite emotional rollercoaster ride!

Moving end of April regardless - but will get 2 of my games in before I go.   Exchanging a few of the other tix for a trip out here in July.

Not sure if you’re just being snarky, but I wasn’t necessarily just talking about the Orioles botching fly balls. It just seems like an OD thing. Probably because there’s so many day games.

Good take by Hays, bad call by the ump.

Oh, I was just riding what I thought was a negativity train for a bit.  Wasn't snarky, just disappointed in them scoring so easily.

Nice. Where are you moving to?
