What is there to like about Urias? He is bad at baseball. 

That's just absurd.  C'mon.

I've been listening via XM and following on GameDay...out of all of the mistakes made today, not letting Stowers bat has to be the biggest. How does a team that is so analytically driven not understand when a guy hits left on left well?

[LGOrioles]

Horrible managing by Hyde and even worse situational hitting from this offense. 0-10 with RISP. They’ve had a runner at 2nd with 0 outs, runners at 2nd and 3rd with 0 outs, runners at 1st and 2nd with 1 out, and another inning with a runner at 2nd and 0 outs. They have gotten 0 runs out of those situations. Almost unfathomable.

Dumb dumb dumb to let Urias hit over Stowers.   I’m normally quiet about this stuff but this one inexcusable.

Why do you use Urias instead of O'Hearn there? 

Unless O'Hearn is hurt, there is zero reason not to have him PH for McCann.

[Just Regular]

Top of the lineup in the 9th - do you hit O'Hearn for any of Westburg, Adley or Mountcastle before Gunnar assuming it is Jordan Romano?

Never mind - O'Hearn now in on defense in Santander's spot.

And this is one reason why I feel Hyde is SO overrated as a manager.  Yeah, I know all the manager of the year stuff, but purposefully batting Urias in that situation is simply stupid.  Urias has sucked all year, and while Stowers has no track record in the majors this year, we KNOW Urias is bad.  Just dumb, dumb dumb.  Stowers may not have done any better than Urias, but he sure couldn't have done any worse!

I thought Stowers hits lefties well?

He hits lefties in the minor leagues well. He hit under .100 in his stint in the mlb last year 

[Moose Milligan]

Lotta shuffling of players around in order to score 1 run this game, Hyde.  Awesome.

[Winter]

Hyde managing like a little league game where there is a rule every kid has to play an inning. 

[OriolesMagic83]

O'Hearn caught that like someone who has never played the outfield.  lol

What I don't understand: if Hays was healthy enough to PH in the 7th, he should have been healthy enough to be in the regular lineup against a LHP who stinks against righties.

[Gunnar]

even if we win this in the bottom of the 9th, i'm going to feel bad about this game.

[Aristotelian]

McCann has been a very good bunter from what I recall.
