Monday, May 20: Orioles at Cardinals

[Yossarian]

Up 0-2 and walk a guy that struggles to hit.  Nice. 

[Billy F-Face3]

Got to work out of a jam somehow.

[dystopia]

It’s funny the Cardinals went and got a bunch of mediocre pitchers and thought that would win them the division. Even funnier that the media bought it hook line and sinker. 
 

I know Gray isn’t mediocre but nobody else in their rotation is very good. 

[Billy F-Face3]

Dean might just be getting settling a little later than usual after the extra rest

[Billy F-Face3]

Front should is the steering wheel.

[Roy Firestone]

[O's84]

Fortunate to get out of that unscathed.  

[Roy Firestone]

got out of it...but no swing and miss stuff...

[Mooreisbetter27]

At least he got out of It. Lots of pitches.

[mrbig1]

No runs but they hit Kremer hard.

[Billy F-Face3]

Well, he got out of the inning without allowing any runs. That's good. Maybe he can have a much better inning next time out the dugout and tey to save his pitch count.

[Malike]

Hasn't pitched in 8 days, OH freaking out in the bottom of the first. Classic game thread!

Yeah.  He should be warmed up by now. 

[HowAboutThat]

With two strikes, how common is it to deliberately throw out of the zone, hoping for a chase?

And is there any way to tell whether it’s a purposeful ball or just a miss?

Elementary question I know, but I never knew.
