8. Jay Payton- CF 8. Mark Loretta- 3B
9. Cintron - SS 9. Brad Ausmus - C
O's Notes:
-
Adam Jones gets the night off with Jay Payton taking his place in centerfield. Lets hope Jay doesn't get tossed like he did the last time he took over in center for A.J. (Toronto)
-
ChadBrad won't pitch tonight after throwing two innings last night.
-
Adam Loewen got his two innings in last night after waiting out a two hour rain delay. He allowed one run and one hit. Loewen will pitch again tomorrow when Bowie travels to Altoona.
-
Single-A Fredrick pitcher Tim Bascom pitched six innings and sat down the last 11 batters he faced. He gave up one run on five hits with one walk and six strikeouts.

that would be a great video, except for one thing
the idea of the Orioles being buyers at the trade deadline sends chills down my spine. Hopefully Andy is not that stupid. Even with a couple top players, it’s not worth raiding our organization in a division with TB and Boston.

buyers at deadline
Ain’t happening. Andy said we would have to be in 1st place in order to consider that route.

Where can you buy player t-shirts? I want the Majestic brand shirts that simply say orioles on the front, and then have a player’s name and number on the back. I couldn’t find any on mlb.com. And some bastard bought the one I wanted on ebay.

You can only buy customized shirts.

I guess I could pick a player and his number though. Plus I want a black one.

That ball looked like a routine groundout off the bat. Cinston was playing way over towards 3B.

It’s a fireable offense in most situations.

Do we have an over/under
on Burres making it through 5 innings tonight?
Because I am officially off that wagon. His slow stuff only works when he can locate it, which hasn’t been for a month or so now…

Only the HR was hit well. The other hits were a bunt, an infield single, and a very slow ground ball single.

BRing in the bullpen
He got to the 6th. Hey, he’s our 5th starter. That ain’t bad. Most years, he’d have been our 3rd best. I can live with a 6-3 lead in the 6th with 2 outs out of my 5th starter.
