Touch up Turnbull here. We need more runs. (Channeling Roy Firestone).

Atlanta score four unanswered in the late innings to tie Tampa Bay.

Whatever happened to the Rays? They won 99 games last year. They just fell off a cliff this year.

It's like they had all those major pitching injuries last year and lost Franco... and they just kept winning as if nothing had changed.

But then this year it caught up with them.

It's kind of like in the cartoon where the Coyote runs off the cliff but he stays suspended in midair spinning his wheels and doesn't fall to the ground.   Then at some point he realizes that's impossible and he plummets to the ground.   And then sometimes an anvil falls on him.

Yeah, it's like that.

Is that Adley tie-in to PNC Bank's Brilliance is Boring marketing campaign new today?

Our guy starting to filter in some of them there non-baseball revenue streams.

They showed it yesterday.

Most of their rotation is out with TJS and every hitter they had last season had near career years and they aren't hitting like they did last year.

They could definitely be back next year when their pitchers come back. Have some good position player prospects.

They lost Wander. Randy sucks.  They lost their top 3 starters last year.

I think new this weekend - they were on yesterday for sure, not sure about Friday.

Quick, someone go edit Bohm's Wikipedia page and make it say Owner of the Baltimore Orioles.

Hardly, when you are down by 5 runs.

We don't need Tony to start swinging at pitches out of the zone,  again

[OriolesMagic83]

I just noticed the O's moved past the Phillies into 2nd in team ERA, 3.07 to 3.10.  I'm assuming it doesn't count today's results.  0.13 back of the Yankees.  When's the last time the O's led the majors in ERA?  I'm guessing the 70's.

It's a 3-game series. It was very close for 20+ innings.

So far we are +7 on the scoreboard for the weekend by my count. I didn’t say that they aren’t very good. But this weekend we are/were better!

[Malike]

Turnbull is impressive.

[Malike]

Cedric > Turnbull.

[Chavez Ravine]

Mullins gets a hit!

Broke up the Turnbull no-hitter.
