They decided to walk our RBI guy.

Smart.

As the lead-off hitter in the inning, definitely not smart.

Bad if you are  Seattle fan, good if you are an O's fan.

And the O's wasted another great SP effort.

It worked!

just putrid offense...we simply cant get key hits when it matters...and need unearned runs to stay in this game....not a recipe for victory..

I'll take my team leading the league in runs scored.

 

That work?

Pretty much the same thing other than the occasional wild pitch or error.

[Roy Firestone]

gotta figure Cano will fail at some point...he hasn't been the same lately...runners in every outing..

Runs scored > RBI.

So you take RBI and I'll take runs scored and my offense will be at least as good and possibly superior. 

[oriolediehard]

Bad start for Cano.

[Moose Milligan]

I don’t like Julio Rodriguez.

Yeesh too close for comfort. Nice stretch by Mountcastle 

[vab]

I'll be glad to be done with these guys after today. They're going to be a tough out for the rest of the season. Don't know why they struggled as long as they did.

That fake out on the HR catch last week was sweet.

Cano's August so far:

5 appearances

4.1 innings
3 hits
1 walk
1 hit batsman
0 runs
5 strikeouts

Exactly what the hell do you expect Roy?   If he isn't perfect every time out you say he's due to fall apart, and will fail.

I'm sorry, your attitude is just pathetic when it comes to a guy we are damn lucky to have  in our bullpen.

And while I've typed this, add two more outs to the August ledger.
