I wonder if Elias will be proven correct when he said Kjerstad was the best left handed bat of that draft.  Anyone know if anyone is better?

Kjerstadt was the #11 choice by the experts and we picked him #2.

This game is far from over, unfortunately. When your offense scores 9 runs, that should be relax time. Only it isn't.

I wish we could see Heston get a game in the field.  They must really be worried about the third deck effect.

Yeah, this is the only park in MLB that's a HR in.

Exactly.  I mean, it was impressive power to go opposite field like that and he hits the ball hard but people are acting like it was out of every park.  That's a loud out practically everywhere else.

[Moose Milligan]

Oh God it's Flaherty.

[jdwilde1]

Okay, I am really hoping Flaherty has a good outing.

[Mooreisbetter27]

Ty guys. 

[O's84]

And the Jack Flaherty bullpen era starts.

Wall scraper hit the first fan and fell back on the field. Still counts, though!

Yeah but Cowser will be fine also.  In spring training this year he hit a ball 471 feet.   I think he is going to be fine also.  

I hope your right. Westburg and Kjerstadt did great on their chances, not Cowser.
