Orioles vs. Rays 4/12/09 Game 3

[mrbig1]

The big 3 are due up.

[GotNitro]

Ouch...27 pitches in the first inning. Hope he gets some quick outs next inning.

[J.D.]

Yeah because he looks so horrible....give me a break.

Give him some credit he got out of a jam!!!!!

He doesn't look AWFUL, but I'm certainly hoping that it takes him less than 25 pitches to make it through the next inning.

[Palmer Esque]

I am pleasantly surprised.....but dare i say............

His stuff does not look that bad...... His stuff looks better than the ERA's he has posted over the past several years...

Is it just me?

He is not Cy Young, but as a 5th starter if he keeps us close that is all we can ask for.

[J.D.]

27; 17 strikes and 10 balls.

Thanks! I was close.

Didn't look bad but he needs to get the pitch count down.

I think it was the fact that he signed a 3 year 24 million dollar contract and posted a 5+ ERA.

His main problem is giving up a big inning.

[Hank Scorpio]

Because it was inside.

That's a strike 90% of the time.

[theobird]

I thought he did a hell of job battling through that first inning. More than I would have expected from him.

[mrbig1]

Why are Roberts and Jones swing on a 2-0 count?

[Palmer Esque]

Shields looks on today, gonna need Eaton to keep gutting it out...

[GotNitro]

Does anyone else not really like the behind-the-plate camera for the live action? They should save that for replays.

[LAOSfan]

Why are Roberts and Jones swing on a 2-0 count?

That's one of the best counts to get a good pitch to hit.
