Tuesday, May 23: two hot teams collide as Orioles visit Yankees

[TopGunnar]

Same old shit. Don’t got the balls between their legs to go into NYY and take a game. 

[emmett16]

Brutal.  

[Tony-OH]

Oh well..

It sucks. 

The Yankees earned this win. Came back down 4-0, came back down 5-4, then shutdown the Orioles late.

Oh well, let's get them tomorrow.

[Emory Eagle]

Basically the last 30 years in a microcosm.

[baltfan]

Orioles have to score at the top of the inning there. Tough loss but this team is resilient.  Need to get a few guys out of slumps.

Skank's bullpen  > O's bullpen tonight

[allquixotic]

I hate this.

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

[spiritof66]

Lost opportunity. 114 games to go.

[Billy F-Face3]

I hate losing to the Yankees. I hope this leaves a foul taste in their mouths and the Orioles come out swinging tommorrow for some payback.

Hasn’t been there and they still aren’t hitting it.  Only way you get it back is to keep throwing it.  It was a bad pitch because you should be throwing it so it is nowhere near the zone, not because it hung. 

The fastball is good enough that he can make them show they're selling out on it first, like Torres did.

[Tony-OH]

Bautista is now what, 11 for 15 in save chances. That's not a good enough percentage to stick as a closer long term. He's a good strike out guy, and guy you want in those situations, but yeah, he's not your up a run closer because he can't be counted on not to throw an absolute garbage pitch at any point.

[Alasdaire]

If it helps you sleep easier tonight, remember that Aaron Judge didn't need that pitch to save the day for them. It was obviously a mistake by Felix (and Adley?), but there are other timelines where better pitches and thrown and Judge still demolishes it.

Meh, Orioles have played great during a brutal stretch of the schedule.  Just swept a team that score 20 tonight.  Itsucks to lose but games like this can make a young team more battle hardened. Just sucks no Cano tomorrow.
