Oh he believed it, that wasn't a reverse jinx.

Yes if the reverse jinx worked the Orioles would be undefeated.

[O's84]

Feel so much better about 3 run lead.

I WOULD KEEP Dominguez IN AND PULL AT FIRST TROUBLE

Mounty a different hitter against LHP

Surely the press will ask Hyde about this in the post game. I can see not wanting to lose Santander's bat if it goes to extras

You don't take your best bat out of the lineup in a game that is likely to go to extras with this pen, even with a 3 run lead.

The guys who we feel are trade chips are having a good day...

Mullins has been on fire lately.  No doubt he is being traded after the game.

Good game by the veterans. Let’s have a simple one Csno.

[Aristotelian]

The lefty got Gunnar but then had to run the gauntlet of Santander Adley Mountcastle. Good job by Hyde there

I agree. Close call but that's what I was expecting yde to make that move.

Thomas Sosa mid game exit this afternoon but Orioles Player Development faked me out on that one once already earlier this week.

Yep. The other side of it is that the runner could get you the insurance run that keeps it from extras. I can see both sides of that one. Oh well, doesn't matter.

185 pitches for the Padres in 8 innings. 14K/8BB. You're welcome to whoever they play next.

Another poor throw from Gunnar
