Tuesday, August 15: Orioles at Padres

[Billy F-Face3]

Umpire has to do a better job of getting out of the way of our feilder who's trying to get that ball.

[O's84]

Ok, I'm done now.  If they somehow pull off a miracle of miracles I'm not going to feel guilt for not watching.

Mercy rule?

Pads have used up all their hits tonight. O’s shut them out tomorrow to take the series.

I'm not watching the game, but I think it's odd that every one of their runs  has scored with two outs.

[Just Regular]

Any given night with a full slate of games there are about 400 pitchers in the show.    Vespi I guess is okay to be one of them sometimes.

I don't think Clubs like to waste money on more than 7-8 big pitchers because the last few guys any given night are so fungible.

Do a deep rebuild and lean on Bats - you will be using AAA shuttle fodder awhile even when the team starts getting good.

Giants lead Rays 5-0 going top of 8..hopefully nothing costs us tonight,

They were in the middle of blowing a bases loaded with no outs opportunity when the Rays catcher gifted them 2 runs with an errant kickoff throw to 3rd base.  I’ll take it.

*pickoff throw.  I guess the 10-0 score had me thinking of football

Someone stop Kevin Brown.  He's singing Blink 182.

[Moose Milligan]

At least we're not getting shut out.

[Uli2001]

There's one.

I was waiting for your post about this.

If it didn't come, it either meant you had gone to bed or Brown had finally managed to make your head actually explode.

Lol he’s corny but I’ve warmed up to him as the seasons gone on.

Pads have now used up all of their allocation of hits with RISP for the month of August.
