Sunday April 30: Orioles try to end one of their best opening months ever on a winning note

[dystopia]

Clearly out.

[Uli2001]

Texas up 10-1 on the Yankees. This is shaping up to be a nice baseball sunday.

[Billy F-Face3]

Freeze frame, he's out.

[FlaO'sFan]

Someone recently said Mateo (Mateo thread maybe) can become a little lackadaisical on routine plays. That was a good example.

Well, I got my answer.

I don't think you have your answer yet.

Mateo needs to wake his glove up. 
 

Can’t believe I’m saying that.  

[oriolediehard]

We  still may need Felix after all.

Seattle has just tied Toronto up with two outs in the ninth.

Sounds like playoffs last year. 

[eddie83]

Filthy. 

[Billy F-Face3]

Good call NY, got it right.

That said, Mateo seems to have regressed with his fielding this year. That was a bad throw andnl it never should have been that close.

Once again, what's the odds of a 1-2-3- ninth.

One more.

I've always thought that a run or runs scored when there's a one-run lead is an "insurance run" or runs, and that a run or runs scored with a two or three-run lead is "extra insurance." At one point, a run or runs scored when a team is already up a few was called a "pad run" or runs. I think Chuck Thompson used that term -- don't hear it any more, and "insurance run" seems to be used more broadly.
