That's insane.

I have to think he thought they went to 2B first and like a dummy assumed the DP.

Best part about it is Volpe didn’t even know and Boone didn’t even address it with him. 

Because Boone is a superior manager.

I'd rather it not be the Sox.

I'm trying to figure out how to go to Boston for the series in September. Might take a vacation day from work to cheer on the Orioles.

91 pitches through four IP, does Hogan start the 5th?

We should have 6+ runs on this trashcan

Awkward at bat for Gunnar there.  We’ve kind of let Hogan off the ropes, though he may be done anyway for pitch count reasons.

Through Gunnars first 82 games he had 93 ks.  Colton has 79.  I still think he is is “learn mode” 

Edit: Gunnar had 48 more PA.  
 

Regardless was striking out at a good clip the first part of his first season.

I hope this is not one of those games for the Orioles where they have a pitcher on the ropes...score..but then go to sleep thee rest of the way...Henderson looks too anxious tonight...swining out of his shoes...really poor...in the last 2 at bats...

The Yankees are an interesting team to watch.  If they don’t make the playoffs or barely get in and lose early I would expect some big changes.  Will they pony up the biggest contract in baseball for Soto because that is what he is going to get?

Fenway is cool, just don't buy tickets behind the stupid girders.

[Yossarian]

The Oakland broadcasters seem to be talking more about Jerry Garcia than the game

They don't appear to be comparable talents.

He took a 3-1 fastball right down the middle in the 2nd, then foul tipped an absolute hanger of a breaking ball in the 4th.
