8/16/10 Orioles vs. Mariners

[RoflDogs]

Nice baserunning

[scOtt]

Ha! Luke laughing to the bench running to first!

[O-The-Memories]

Ok fellas, that's what I like to see!

[Glenn Gulliver Fan]

Ha this is great. Wild pitch. Error. Love it.

Also we are getting the Doug Fister as he contiues to fall back to earth.

[scOtt]

There's where running hard to first pays off. Good job Adam!

[Glenn Gulliver Fan]

Why does Casey Kotchman continue to get so many at bats since the Smoak trade? Is Smoak injured? I'd be fuming to see Kotchman play more than once a week if I cared about the Mariners.

[O-The-Memories]

I'm not too worried because he's not in a slump, but I'd like to see Pie be more selective like he was before. These last couple of games he's been a real free swinger.

[Hank Scorpio]

Bergesen is looking really good stuff-wise.

Best I've seen him all year.

Yeah since when does he throw 94 with excellent movement?

They sent Smoak to AAA Tacoma

[RoflDogs]

That was an out!!!

[scOtt]

He was out at third.

[SilentJames]

He was out at third.

He was struck out and thrown out at third - yet he is still on the basepaths, annoying.
