METS August 21…going for a series win with mighty Cole Irvin

[Sports Guy]

Holliday rushing the play because of how the ball ate up Urias.

Removing Irwin after 83 pitches?

Anyone watching, is he injured too?

[Bleed Orange]

If we're going to lose, let's at least get the perfect game.

The offense continues to be all or nothing. 64 runs in the last 13.5 games, with 10 of them coming in the loss against Boston. Doesn’t help that your second best player has been below replacement level for almost 2 months. 

We are abysmal against lefties lately.

[O's84]

This umpire is all over the place.

No. It’s Hyde not wanting him to face JD for a 3rd time with runners on the corners.

He’s not that good. Did you expect him to go 100.

It’s not a hot take to say don’t swing at pitchers pitch and aggression against pitchers taking advantage of your aggression is a poor approach. 

That’s not what was said. Which is why it’s a hot take.

He is, but the O’s don’t have the pitch framing to win those close calls.

He was in trouble. 1st and 3rd one out.

 

Selby got the double play ball

Because not all strikes are made the same. That was a borderline strike low and on the inside corner. And Mounty did exactly what you’d expect a RHH to do with that kind of pitch. Weakly rolled over it. 

That's in his red zone right?

Red is good right?

Hit batter, can't convert an inning ending double play, get away game, may as well just give in to the perfect game and move on down the road.

[Moose Milligan]

This is where it comes apart.

I honestly think he's screwing both team, the Orioles a little more, but awful to both.  I'm ready yesterday for Robo umps.

Selby experiment quickly coming to an end. You can only pick up so many scrap heap pitchers and expect results
