There are only 2 leagues on the planet that *don't* use it: the NL and one of the 2 Japanese leagues. Not sure whether that's the one Koji was in or not...

From Wiki:

The DH is used in most professional baseball leagues around the world. One notable exception is the Central League of Japan, where pitchers bat as they do in the National League. Japan's Pacific League adopted the designated hitter in 1975. However, when teams from different leagues play against each other in Japan Series or interleague games, the DH rule is adopted if the Pacific League's team hosts the game. Unlike the AAA in America, minor team games in NPB adopted DH rule regardless of teams.[/Quote]

Koji's Giants were in the Central league so I'm assuming he batted.

I'm blacked out due to the stupid MLB blackout rules... and Gameday won't load all the way, it gets to about 80% and hangs...

However, I can watch the FL feed in a tiny window on DirecTV's GameMix channel... but those guys just ignored the top of the 2nd while talking about some kind of charity live auction, showing some guy walking around the bowels of the stadium... I never saw a team's broadcast just ignore half-an-inning before... this is worse than the PBS money-hawking...

ARe you serious? Gulf Shores is under the Marlins territory? I would've thought for sure it would be the braves, or at worst the rays.

Yeah, I had this too when we played the Braves. To say it's annoying is an understatement. :(

Im watching the FLA feed because its in HD..the auction is very annoying, and might prompt me to switch off the HD to standard TV so I can watch the O's feed and avoid the auction.

These are the WORST announcers I have ever watched/heard.

      Do you ever keep count how many times the fans are wrong and Hyde is right?   I didn't think so.

      At one time, the Orioles seemed to be in the minority regarding keeping guys under wraps and to lower pitch counts.  Now this seems to be the rule among teams in the minors.

      Billy Cook 2023

      By RZNJ · Posted

      Billy Cook just keeps grinding his way along.   He gets a little better every year while advancing through the system.  He's at .862 OPS overall but .929 after almost 100 PA at Norfolk.   Striking out less.  Walking more.  Hitting more doubles but less homers so far.  Stealing some bases.  Playing all three OF positions, 1B and 2B.   Can I get a top 30 for this kid @Tony-OH? 😄

      He isn’t letting Grayson coming off a shoulder issue throw a bunch of pitches. I’m sure they had a number in mind before the game.

      Grayson Rodriguez 2024

      By baltfan · Posted

      You aren't going to impress me with Kremer being the only decent player they got for Machado.  Sorry, that isn't an example of his competence.  As for Means, he got his improvement as a result of going outside of the system with an outside baseball training facility.   He gets a lot of credit for GrayRod though as many criticized the pick.

      Interesting new tactic to avoid draft being discouraged by MLB

      By Just Regular · Posted

      The Bryce move was less controversial because he didn't escape the guardrails of the draft regulating one and only one Club he had the opportunity to sell his labor to. Last CBA round during the international draft negotiations Tony Clark gave out a quote like "in principle we don't like drafts of any kind" Being selfish for Orioles and with Elias having the extra pool money this year because of Gunnar, I've wondered if Ethan Holliday could quick drop out of 11th grade with a few weeks to go, grab that GED, play one game for Stillwater Community College and earn reclassification to 2024.     Then he just needs to pull that John Elway or Eli Manning thing.

      Orioles attendance 2024

      Received my voucher email last night (they'll be in my account as of May 24).  There's no way they could've known I was there for the whole game, so it appears everyone who had a ticket for that game and a MyOriolesTicket account received a voucher. Pretty generous!  Good for 2024, most M-Th games (select "blackout" dates excluded).
