O's @ Red Sox 3/15/09

[BillySmith]

Count goes full. Liner into the leftfield corner. Standup double.

[BillySmith]

I'm sorry, it's 2 2/3, not 3 2/3.

Moore, Davis (when healthy), Turner is 3/4 of a pretty good infield at Norfolk. They could all be major leaguers.

Yea I agree, and if Costanzo can get back to form playing 1b and smacking homeruns, that can be a pretty nasty inflield. Though I assume Davis or Turner will be at AA because I believe Donnie Murphy or Jolbert Cabrera are going to remain in the organization, because i still believe Gomez has the lead on the utility spot if we got with 12 pitchers

[BillySmith]

3 straight balls to Ellsbury. Called strike. Ground out to Murphy. Bass continues strong, giving up his first hit of the day.

Strong line-up for the Red Sox today. Bass does a great job through the first go around.

Good to see, see what he can do as he goes back through the order

[BillySmith]

Buchholz still in. Salazar rifles one to the leftfield and gets a triple! Then, the call is interference down in the corner, and Salazar is sent back to 2nd with a double. Wieters up.

Good point. I remember many posters feeling that is his big issue.

[BillySmith]

Wieters k's on 3 pitches, the last foul clanking off the catcher's glove and Wieters is thrown out easily. Salazar stays put.

3 breaking pitches to Wieters.

Bucholz is just chewing us up with the K's, is that the 6th through 3 innings?

[Brazil Os Fan]

3B umpire sends Oscar back to 2B cause fan interference. Wieters K'ed. Moore ground out to 1B and Oscar to 3B. Lou is up.

[BillySmith]

Moore up. Wilkerson makes a nice stop on a big hop grounder and throws to Buchholz for out #2. Salazar up to 3rd. He would have scored if the triple stood.

[backwardsk]

Ha Lowrie! Lugo would have caught that.

[BillySmith]

Bloop single for Montanez. Salazar scores. O's up 1-0.

I think so. Didn't he no-hit us in '07?
