[Moose Milligan]

Just knew they were gonna blow it, it was just a matter of how.

Same old movie again, Yankees prevail over us again.  I try to be positive, but it is hard when the same results keep happening.

The team just couldn't put them away early when they had the opportunity and predictably they did just enough late to lose the game.

[Hank Scorpio]

I will sleep much worse because of this sickening display.

[Emory Eagle]

They really suck right now.

You literally just said we're probably getting swept if we lose tonight. That's you trying to be positive? 

[Billy F-Face3]

Well at least there's 3 more games this series to get sone redemption and beat the yankees. That's all I can say. 

Gotta keep the ball inside the park if you're and Orioles pitcher, and gotta convert runners in scoring position if you're an Orioles hitter. If you don't, you get the results of tonight's game. Do better tommorrow.

I hate the Yankees but I can't help but be impressed with Clay Holmes as a pitcher.

His hometown is about 20 minutes from my house. VERY rural place.

I said maybe, not definite. I am disappointed when we lose. Positive or Negative don't affect the outcome.

 

[Gurgi]

The collapse is close to run away levels.

Are you joking? Wells was getting hit hard when he was pulled. 

With our bullpen I would have let him start the 7th.

Remember when the 89 team had a huge lead and then lost 12 out of 14 games and gave it all away?  

[clapdiddy]

Haven't watched a whole lot of games since I don't have the MLB package and live out of state.   I watch ESPN Play-by-play and watch the game threads here.   

I'm thinking they could be headed for a disaster this month with the schedule they have.   It also hurts when you see Frazier playing right field (or more than a pinch-hitting role for that matter) and Mateo constantly in the lineup when you potentially have better players than them in Norfolk right now.

Technically they held on after that streak. Lost lead weeks later. Showed their toughness. No WC back then either.

We are going to take two out of the next three from the yanks. Keep them right where they are. This is our year to make the playoffs then anything can happen.

This loss makes me sick. I see a 2nd half nosedive in our future.
