Q's failure looms even larger

Why were Hawk and Stone praisin Rios' "sacrifice" there? It's terrible to give up an out there.

That run we couldn't score would look even better now.

It's gotta be tough to have to pitch a shutout every night. Absolutely no margin for error.

Because he moved the runner to 3rd base like he is supposed to with 0 outs.

Dont worry, Ozzie will bring Sale in again in a tie game in a pennant race

Please tell me you're kidding. IF Q man's up and does his job right there Rios' contribution to scoring that run is just as great as the man who knocks him in.

oh boy.

Dayan, come on dude.

It would be funny if that happened, but really there's no reason to lose tonight. We should dominate Matusz tonight.

Not the best prediction.

Jesus Christ, the twins have their forks and knives ready

shocking

If Rios gets a hit there, we'd be leading 2-1. There's the difference.

Did Dayan's foot get caught on the bag during the transfer?

We play for one run, we won't get any.

 

 

Rios is expected to be our best hitter or 2nd best hitter. There's no way he should be intensionally sacrificing (if he did indeed do just that) and give up an out against a guy we should pile it on against, especially when the inning was led off with a double.

Yeah, but he still should have had the transfer easily. He rushed it.

The strategy of 'dont waste any outs ever' works when you have a skull-crusher of an offense to make up for it. We don't, so I think most here would rather get runners in scoring position when you can.

It works better in that type of offense, but overall, it works well for the average offense, too.

Well, time to man up.

 

Everyone could see this inning coming a mile away after we failed to score in the top of the 6th.

 

Interesting stat of the day. The Orioles haven't won two series in a row since July, 2009.

Well you try to hit it to the right side and get a hit but if you don't get a hit at least you moved the runner over. That's why when you see it happen the guys in the dugout give out 5 highs as if he had gotten an RBI.

Yep, and that whole argument goes for naught anyways as we had two great hitters coming up, Rios slump or not.

Hes gonna bb a run in

Nice play paulie
