The Crow and Diamond Dave are in love with Brian Bob! Adam Jones gets a great reception! Aubrey Huff scores a subtly sick burn on Dioner Navarro! Jeremy Guthrie explains what happens when you throw a fastball to a man expecting a fastball and leave it in the kill zone!

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

"It was like, all right, hopefully this is as the season goes."

-- Adam Jones, on his run down the orange carpet

"That’s Brian Roberts. He’s one of the premier leadoff hitters, not only in this league but in the game. I wouldn’t expect anything different from him. I don’t think anything bothers him."

-- Dave Trembley

"Brian's fabulous. I'm glad we have him."

-- Terry Crowley

"I thought Guthrie threw strikes, but his location wasn’t what we’re used to. The location of his secondary pitches is what got him in trouble."

-- Trembley

"He was expecting a fastball and I threw a fastball. If it was a better location, we'd have a better result. It was up around the belt and he did a nice job on it."

-- Jeremy Guthrie, on Eric Hinske's fourth inning solo homer

"They’ve got a nice offense one through nine. Even Navarro had three hits. He’s a guy you just can’t sleep on."

-- Aubrey Huff

"I've got no problem with guys being aggressive to start the season. If guys are going to be around the plate, I want them to swing the bat."

-- Trembley

AND LET'S NOT FORGET THE BOOING!

"It was expected. If I was in their situation, I would have booed me, too. It was a stupid thing to do. I'm sure the fans have been itching to get at me."

-- Huff, on getting booed for calling Baltimore a "horseshit town" this offseason

"I thought it was hilarious, to be honest with you. I was booing him, too."

-- Kevin Millar

"Guys were laughing at it. Millar actually thought he was going to get a little bit, but he got off light."

-- Huff

"From what I heard, it was a pretty big deal up here, which I didn't realize that much until the next morning after the show was over. In Lauderdale, I didn't get anything, so I figured, 'OK, it'll be all right,' but whew."

-- Huff

"The fans have every right to receive anybody in this ballpark any way they want. Huff's here to play baseball, the fans are here to watch the game and support their team any way they want."

-- Trembley

so did anyone catch...

roch's scolding of the fans for huff's treatment? i mean, did it occur to that mullethead that maybe the fans were booing not just b/c he's crummy guy, but also b/c he's a crummy player takign up a roster spot? notice that millar produced when called upon, while also causing a bit of controversy in the o's offseason.

Millar

I love Millar's response. Despite the result of the game, I'm just happy the season has begun.

I missed you, Kevbo.

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again."

I think I'm ready to forgive Huff

He has said the right things lately, he wore an I heart Baltimore shirt, and he took his booing like a man.

I'm not forgiving him

for the numbers he put up last April, May, June and July.

But the radio thing? Yeah, I'm ready to let that go.

"I'd just like to point out that every newspaper in the country has picked us to finish last. The local press seems to think that we'd save everyone the time and trouble if we just went out and shot ourselves." - Major Leauge
