8/9 Matusz and the O's @ Halladay and the Jays

[Great 2BA FL Gator]

After 3: Their guy: 36p, 23s, 4h, 1er, 2r, 1bb, 1k; Our guy: done after 2.2IP, 62p, 35s, 7h, 5er, 5r, 2bb, 1k.

He just didn't know where it was going half the time...

Everyone has their bad days. Matusz is supposed to have great command, so hopefully, he gets back to it in 5 days.

Not good command of the fastball today. Way too many hitter counts. Still not getting on top of the curveballs he tried to throw. Two or three more in this start that were spinners that hung. I have to admit that it's concerning that he hasn't had the ability to throw the curve which is supposed to be one of his best pitches.

It is but at the same time, Tillman's didn't throw his curve effectively until about midway through his second start.

We're dead. Time to cut the grass. Have a nice day my friends.

Mr. Pie just turned a TOR double into an out...

Great catch Pie.

Great catch Pie.

It was the Blair boring kind of good play... just get there and catch it before it bounces...

Pie starting to make LF look easy.

Wow, I think this is the worst hitting lineup I've seen the O's put up this year. I'm not feeling great about this...

[UMDTerrapins]

They were both safe.

[alaniee]

Millar seems to do well against us.

[RShack]

Wow, I think this is the worst hitting lineup I've seen the O's put up this year. I'm not feeling great about this...

Andino, Pie, and CI created a run out of 1 measly hit...

CI is 2 for 3 with a double and a ribbie...

[Jdan14]

Let's look on the bright side, Bud lite lime is now in Canada.

[bce086]

Izzy (2), Mora, Scot, and Andino with our 5 hits today... Hmm interesting.

:angryfire:

[bce086]

I guess all I had to do was something to get everyone else in the game...
