Bummer basically had him struck out and Angel Hernandez denied him.

Didn't Bummer used to throw 97-98? I've seen him as low as 94 this year. I wonder if that elbow injury last year changed something.

Yeah just seems different ever since the injury.  Slider has a lot of break but seems to mess up his release point.

That slider was FILTHHHHHHH

Oh Grandal

Grandal shoulda had that.  Collins is a better defender

Put Crochet in please.  He needs to get more consistent work

Agree let Crochet close this out. 

Carlos Martinez has a no hitter through 6.

Brandon Waddell....WOW

He was throwing 96-97 that inning

Ruiz was just warming. 

I gotta admit, I only know these Orioles relievers' names from scoring 30 runs a game off them in MLB the Show trying to grind parallels for my Diamond Dynasty team. If you play, you'll get it too.

Hey...a Walk

Looks like Ruiz for the 9th 

Brandon Waddell has a 9.64 ERA. Yikes!

I saw him sit 95-96. Didn't see 97. I did see one at 94. His average velocity is actually up this year compared to the last 2, surprisingly. Maybe he hasn't been throwing as hard lately with how iffy his control was early in the year.

I don't endorse that...doesn't he have 6 straight appearances with a run given up.

He's looked terrible at the plate but will have a .400 OBP tonight...??

Sorry it's Foster for the 9th 

You could tell that kid in the grey hoodie behind the plate had a bet on Moncada cause he was locked in on that Moncada AB

Matt Foster sighting

Replace the single with a homer and that's pretty much peak Grandal this year.
