I have no idea what to quote here but wanted somewhere to say how sweet it is to hear Kevin and Ben back together again. 

Hoping Jim Palmer is recovering okay. 

Let's Go!

Top of Padres order looks very good.  Amazing how they seem to under perform this year.

Per Roch:

Quote

Aaron Hicks is starting in left field and batting eighth tonight after his reinstatement from the injured list earlier today.

Cedric Mullins is in center field and batting sixth. Austin Hays sits against Padres right-hander Yu Darvish.

Adley Rutschman stays in the leadoff spot, followed by shortstop Gunnar Henderson.

Jordan Westburg is playing second base and batting ninth.

Ryan Mountcastle, the designated hitter tonight, is slashing .418/.488/.672 with four home runs and 13 RBIs during his 20-game on-base streak.

The O’s have won 24 of their last 34 games dating back to July 5. Only the Dodgers (24-8) have a better record in that span.

Do we ever get to face a mediocre starter?

Cowser was sent back to Norfolk.

Interesting Hideo Nomo works for the Padres now.  You would think he would of gone back and coached or worked in Japan.  Kind of cool I guess.

Glad to see they fixed the audio issue

Has Darvish been good this season?  I haven't been following him or the Padres to know any better.

[Gurgi]

You guys hearing the crowd mic problems?  Masn has been real shoddy lately

The grass looks like it is painted on, at least on my tv. Seriously, it's like the nicest golf course I have ever seen.

Hendersson has REALLY been scuffling in the last week or so..

[Roy Firestone]

Another typical 1-2-3 first inning for the good guys..gonna be a tough game to win tonight...
