Nice play by Gunnar.

Is Mancini basically finished?  He is playing awful this year.

They should give that city a nickname!

Don't the Orioles usually struggle against the Cubs?

Got a laugh when Gunnar barehanded the ball and the PBP guy said "Gunnar flashing the leather".

If they ever make a new stadium I think they should make a dome that can open.   Probably rough there in the fall.

It's rough in the spring too.

I have flashbacks of 2014 when they swept us. I don't know how they usually fare, we haven't played them a ton I suspect.

O's are 6-10 all time vs the Cubs, although they have a modest two game winning streak at Wrigley.

Random thought: the Cubs' city connect jerseys makes me feel better about the Orioles.

Only game I ever went to in Wrigley was, if I rememer correctly, early to mid May in 1992.   And it was BITTER cold, especially our seats in the shade.

Went to a night game that night at New Comiskey, and while the thermometer was lower, I didn't feel as cold in the night game as I did in the day game in the wind at Wrigley.

Brutal day of baseball, and the only time I have ever been to either of those parks.

And tomorrow we get CB Bucknor.

Are you serious?  He's 2nd worst, IMO, after Angel Hernandez.

One consistent thing about Os teams for years.. they are unable to hit soft tossers
