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

[Mooreisbetter27]

Yuck. 

[OriolesMagic83]

This just isn't the O's day.  Take the series win and be thankful. 

[accinfo]

Wow, things have fallen apart this inning.  You can’t win them all.  Hopefully they exercise these bad demons all in this game.

[Moose Milligan]

Apparently scoring runs several innings in a row is a real barometer for success. 

[Malike]

This is what the DBacks do. They score a ton of runs in one game, then do nothing for two weeks.

[Roy Firestone]

thats gonna do it...BTW I think Perez has been awful lately too...

[Dunk35]

Someone is gonna have to get outs today. The bullpen is running on fumes.

 

Cionel has decided he doesn't want to be a major leaguer any longer. 

[Morgan423]

If we come back after literally handing them 7 runs in this game, we'll call this one the Mother's Day Miracle

[O's84]

H.M.S Perez is sinking.

Is there a reason that you prefer Pressley over Helsley?

I can't see anything from Pressley's performance this season and age that makes him desirable for us to slot in as our closer. 

Wish I had an answer for you, as I know you like good long discussions that go back and forth for several posts, but I haven’t got anything for you on this one. 

[OsFanSinceThe80s]

We might see a position player pitching the ninth inning today and to think some of you didn’t want McKenna on the team. 

[Moose Milligan]

The perennially disappointing Jays come to town tomorrow. We can get healthy against those losers.

Wow, our normal sharp defense is horrible today.   And so far none of it is attributable to O'Hearn who appeared to be the glaring defensive hole in the lineup coming into the game.

It's not our every day players pooping the bed, so I don't think it's a big deal.

He'd be my DFA candidate. I don't care if he's a LHP that throws 96-97. He doesn't strike people out or miss bats.

Have you seen this team score single runs in several innings in a row? It's a crooked number followed by lots of zeros. I am sure someone will dig up some statistic to show they are average in this, but it doesn't feel okay following these games.

Please disregard my previous reply.

How much do you watch non-Orioles games? All top offensive teams depend on home runs in 2024 because of how good Major League pitching is now. There are only TWENTY ONE hitters in the sport who are batting over .300. And we have 2 of them.
