Sunday May 12: Orioles try to complete sweep of National League Champions

[O's84]

Okay, could have worse.

[Roy Firestone]

7 K's in 4...wow

[Moose Milligan]

Limited the damage. Gotta get to Gallen but that’s tough 

[SteveA]

Unearned run,

[Roy Firestone]

God, were not even close to hitting a ball hard...

[Roy Firestone]

Mounty going fishing...terrible ..

[CynBeth]

I can see this being a 1-0 no hitter against us. That inning changed the momentum of the game.

Were you expecting us to knock around Gallen?

They are making Zac Gallen look like a really good pitcher.

[Just Regular]

That was a cool synopsis by Palmer of his conversation with Brent Strom.

Strom told Palmer the way Gallen is good is as a decathlete, in contrast to Verlander being his best fastball pitcher, McCullers curve, Cole slider, Keuchel changeup.

The physical similarity between Kremer and Gallen is interesting for thinking about how high Kremer might climb the pitcher totem pole.

Not shocked at all by this take.

[Moose Milligan]

Best bet is to somehow get his pitch count up and get to their bullpen. Gallen is dealing.

I always thought if it's an error on the pitcher it should still be an earned run.

no, I was expecting to get a hit in 4 innings...or at least hit it hard...

I seriously doubt the no hitter part. We have too many good hitters. Eventually someone will figure something out. Just gotta keep it close until they do.
