Let the fireworks begin!!!! :clap3:

As a side note, I benched Huff in my DH eligible fantasy league this week for the first time all season.... so hopefully he'll start hitting the crap out of the ball. Far be it for my fantasy team AND the Orioles do well at the same time

Quite a number of former Orioles on Kansas City's roster:

John Bale

Ryan Freel

Bruce Chen

Sidney Ponson

Alright, it's only four. But what an interesting foursome it is.

SIDENOTE:

I'll be filling in for Orioles beat reporter Paul Folkemer during this seven game homestand at Camden Yards. Looking forward to a good time and a couple wins over the next seven nights!

[High Mileage]

Checking in, I expect a loss tonight.

[FutureGM]

Hopin for a win, but I expect the bats need to get goin early. Hill most likely won't last long.

[trk001]

Is MASN having really bad mic buzz or is that on my end?

[Why Not?]

Checking in, I expect a loss tonight.

Welcome!. Thanks in advance for any insight on the opponent.

[mrbig1]

We will win tonight. I think Huff and Scott got the message.

[threedaysrest]

Go get 'em, Richie! Stifle KC with the tilt and funk, daddy! :clap3:

[Hank Scorpio]

And true to form, Rich Hill walks the leadoff hitter on 5 pitches.

[FutureGM]

Leadoff walk, brilliant start....

[Hank Scorpio]

Rich Hill COMPLETELY sucks, I'm sorry.

[FutureGM]

And then doesnt hold the runner. Geez.

[Why Not?]

Couple of real winners on the mound tonight.....the personification of replacement level.

[adamwolff11]

Hill with a walk and then doesn't hold the runner. Impressive.

[Why Not?]

And then doesnt hold the runner. Geez.

Or even bother to look over. I guess he forgot about the walk.
