Still going to the playoffs. Just get hot there. 

Yeah but I’m tired of hearing that (and saying it). Even if they get ‘hot’ how long can they sustain it?

Playoff type atmosphere and pressure and with the exception of Gunnar they all folded like a cheap suit. Can't wait for that 2 game WC sweep by the Royals

Hopefully Westburg and Urias coming up for the next series and Mountcastle after that.

[TopGunnar]

Not even mad. Being mad at this Orioles team is like getting mad when your puppy shits on the carpet.

I cannot remember a more inept team with a runner at third and less than 2 out...its absolutely incredible...this game was ours for the taking...we absolutely deserved to lose...

Have we lost a more winnable game? That was an absolute dagger. 

I’d be less mad if it was the bottom of the lineup. But Mullins and Santander with 2 of the worst ABs all year when it mattered.

This. Imagine that, a playoff caliber experience and this team chokes. So weird.

Yup...and your 2 veterans with 0 and 1 out have LOUSY ABs.

Honest to god, it’s their specialty.  
 

Like an artist, it’s their preferred medium.

I made the mistake of believing in them when Gunnar had that 2B.

Do you know how hard it is to not get a runner home from 3B with no outs?

As a fan dating back to 1966,I say without hesitation,this team is the least fun I have ever seen.

Who knows but it was only three years ago you would have given your left pinky toe just for a shot at the playoffs at this point in a season.

You’re not wrong but that doesn’t make me feel one ounce better 

It would have been a nice way to keep building momentum for the playoffs. Oh, well. Season goes on.
