get the third out....

[Gurgi]

We got away with a sloppy start....now we need to score a handful of runs and pile on as much as we can because our bullpen will likely blow any lead that isnt huge.

Way to pitch out of it Gibby! Now come on boys and let’s get the bats going!

You know I had more fun last year when the Orioles were not expected to win.  I watched the games with much less stress....taking the loses as expected and the wins as gravy.  Now that I expect and hope they win the games are harder to watch.  

Tough way to go through 162 games. I mean, I can see late in games in keep situations, but not sure you can survive living and dying every with every play, every inning.

I like it better this way....

Better get swinging boys. The umpire has a date tonight!

McLanahan is good, he doesn't need the help 

[seak05]

Tonight is a good night for a Mountcastle style approach, with that strike zone, you'd better be swinging

A decade ago my wife said I should pick a team that won more and root for them.  It would keep my stress down.   

 

I told her I would rather get a different wife than a different team.  LOL  True story.  

[PHRESH]

Wow, looked inside. Big zone tonight 

[Roy Firestone]

this is what a great pitcher looks like...he throws strikes...
