Tuesday, April 30: Orioles vs Yankees

[Philip]

Kremer is too generous. The Yankees give us a gift, and he has to give one right back.

Not as if they have two of the top five slugging percentage against non fastballs in the lineup!

 

Oh wait...

Traditionally they have struggled.  Cortes usually owns the O's.  I hope this year is different.  Gunnar is one of the 2, who is the other one?

Kremer needs to get it together.  Yanks have been killing the ball, just happened to go right at our fielders. That can’t last. 

If their twig-hitting catcher is doing that, it could get ugly against the power guys.

Hey! Late for my bday game!

What’d I miss?

Kremer looks like he’s lost a lot of weight.

[Emory Eagle]

That was a very rare type of foul ball.

He's got 53 HRs in a few MiL seasons. He's 24 and has pop.

Yup that’s my thoughts.

Happy Birthday!

Good Oriole defense.

Bad Yankee defense.

Poor plate umpiring.

Another HR by a backup catcher against us.

Kremer stinks man. I hate watching him pitch

Okay but that doesn’t change the fact that it could get ugly with their big power guys.

Brings to mind an old Home Team Sports broadcast when the catcher took a foul tip right in the Jimmy

Mel Proctor: "The trainer is seeing if he can count to 10"

John Lowenstein: "He only has to count to two!"

Oh, no doubt.

How can he not be a good hitter.   Roy said their lineup was absolutely loaded.

Well, we knew we wouldn't shut them out the whole series.

If I were a major league pitcher, I'd have to have some sort of weird euphus or knuckleball or something like that for these at bats.  If we get to 8, 9, 10 pitches, I'm throwing that thing, and this at bat is going to end, one way or another... I'm not pitching to you all night
