You should add McCann to your list of pitchers not available - his arm must be spent from last night's work. 

[SteveA]

Gutsy by Adley taking off when that didn't get too far away from the C.

[Chavez Ravine]

Oddly early start for the getaway game.

[Billy F-Face3]

Catcher leads off and steals a base LOL. How much fun is that?

[SteveA]

Small ball !

[NCRaven]

Mountcastle moves the runner to third and Santander gets him.  Two “good” outs.

[Chavez Ravine]

Tony grinds it!

[FlaO'sFan]

On the board.

We're going to hit at least 2 HR's off this guy. Book it.

There's 1 run for the Orioles! Manufactured run by Adley, Mountcastle, and Santander.

With the way Mountcastle hit it that deep, I thought the same. 

[Chavez Ravine]

Lol. Snell spit the fastball down the chute and said “hit this Gunnar”

Man, Benny Santiago is a good immaculate grid guy. Forgot all about that dude. 

[Billy F-Face3]

These Padres hitters are pesky with these extended At Bats.

[Chavez Ravine]

OMG. I have seen this before.
