Orioles -- 1 game over .500
I won’t consider the dream of .500 over quit yet. I’m not expecting too much this year, just wishing for a .500 season - like the past few years. Sure the Birds are 8 – 7, and NYY is coming to town, but you have to remember, they used 5 pitchers on Wednesday night. I fully expect them to use another 4-5 tonight. Then the come to Baltimore with 2 youngsters pitching (Hughs & Kennedy) on Friday & Saturday & and afternoon start for Pettite on Sunday. Will the Jankees have enough pitching? Let’s just hope the O’s bust out of their hitting slump.
I’m fully expecting them the win 2 of 3 this weekend.
GO ORIOLES - PLEASE THROW STRIKES; 1st pitch strikes would be nice

“I’m not expecting too much this year, just wishing for a .500 season – like the past few years.”
Huh?
I'm guessing
it’s the same WISH as the last few seasons.

O's show heart win 10 inning win over the Chi-Sox
Extra innings win puts the O’s 2 games over .500 with NYY coming to town. Adam Jones told Amber he couldn’t wait for them to get there. I agree with Adam.
(changing channel) Boston/NYY are finish game up in 3 hours & 20 minutes—short game. NYY uses 4 pitchers a day after using 5.
If the O’s can do a few things this weekend, I see at least 2 wins:
1) BE PATIENTLY AGGRESSIVE at the plate – make the pitchers work and throw strikes
2) pitchers THROW STRIKES
—it sounds so easy
Let’s get it done boys.
PLEASE -- JUST PLEASE THROW STRIKES.
Re:

In case you haven’t been around long, our beloved O’s seem to make “young” pitchers look like Sandy F-in Koufax. So I’m going to take the under and say we win one this weekend, all the while hoping for a broomin’.
