Off the Sunday schneid: O's 5, Angels 2

Capt

Garrett Olson pitched a hell of a game today, going 6 plus innings and allowing 2 runs. He only had one bad inning and he only walked two. Garrett, I apologize for saying you were awful in the gameday thread. My bad!!

Capt

The O's got all the offense they needed in the game from the all around awesome Guillermo Quiroz. He got 3 hits and 3 RBI to go along with his pepper bar. And in his post game interview the first thing he said was, "I was glad to get Garrett Olson through this game." Love him!

Fantastic game from the O's battery today. Now they head on the road for 9 games vs the Yankees, Mariners, and Angels (again).

Interesting to note that the O's won on a Sunday when the team WASN'T giving away free tickets. Coincidence??????

It’s an elaborate conspiracy, phase one. Phase two involves Jay Payton being traded to the Cubs for a Tootsie Pop.

A mind without purpose will walk in dark places.

man

You Quiroz-lovers would be awfully unhappy with him in everyday play.

Don’t ask if he could be worse than Razor. He could.

to be clear

I’m not hatin’ on dude’s good game. But anyone really thinking Quiroz is an acceptable starter is out of their gourd.

I'm under no illusions

It’s just nice to see a non-lazy catcher every now and again.

That ticket thing was pretty beat.

Should’ve come right out and said “if we win at home on a Sunday, no matter how long this goes, everyone gets that free ticket”

But they waited until Thursday or Friday to announce it before the “You win Too” game, which made it hard to plan to attend.

Anyway, a very good day for the Orioles. Loved Jay Pay’s triple.

superstitious commentators

I love how the commentators refused to point out the sunday losing streak (but did mention the 5-game losing streak), until the game was finally over.

Air

He inhales at a rate that could deflate a hot air balloon, his head swells, and like a CO2 propelled pellet gun, the air compresses and shoots through his arm to power his fastball. The picture was just snapped before the air shifted. It’s a common phenomenon among pitchers, actually.
