Yeah, you missed suck city
But also a discussion of Megan Fox vs. Jessica Alba and Adam Jones vs. Nick Markakis.

Yes
As you can imagine, the girls got much more discussion going. Although LenaO and I agreed that Brian Roberts smile makes us melty.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
I think Jessica Alba won vs. Megan Fox
Adam beat Nick, but it was a split vote on Nick vs. Brian.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
Well Nick IS gorgeous
But he seems pretty boring, so that tipped the scales in Adam’s favor.

right?
Adam is good looking AND has a personality. It’s a winning combination.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
It's true, it's true
This team may suck but they sure do have some lookers!
I feel like, if this were high school, Brian would be the guy you let meet your mom, but Adam would be the guy you cut class to make out with. Nick too. In high school his boringness would totally be misinterpreted as smoldering.

Because my boringness was just boring.
It’s also possible I should have been a baseball player.

and let them take shots to the face from Brock Lesnar.

Dave Johnson
is railing against the umpires. He is NOT amused. Nor am I. This has been some of the pissest poor umpiring in the history of ever.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry

"Matt Wieters Adopted Mark Texiera's Parents Because He Felt They Needed A Son To Be Proud Of."
He started with (a rough paraphrase)
“Fred, as you know, I’ve been saying this all night off the air because I don’t want to sound like a homer or like I think the umpires are the reason the Orioles are losing, but this is some of the most unacceptable umpiring I’ve ever seen. Justin Masterson is getting pitches 8, 9 inches off the plate and Mark Hendrickson throws a curve that splits the plate in half and it’s called a ball.”
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
I agree with Dave.
And wonder what Dempsey will say about it on the postgame show.

The fact that it's the second night in a row is silly
I mean, it’s not like you can blame some questionable strike calls on the 10-1 lead in its entirety, but it’s really pouring gasoline on the fucking fire here when we’ve had like three pitches go down the middle at belt length and get called balls, and then we’re getting Orioles guys run up on shit that’s six inches outside at shin height.

Varitek
Greatest acting job ever, a pitch came inside on him (forearm height) and he acted like he got hit on the elbow and started running towards first base. Umpire gave him the base. Shit. I’d fucking forgotten about it and now I’m pissed again. This game is bullshit all the way around.

With the bases loaded
Albers threw up and in to Varitek. It clearly did not hit him, and the umpire did not signal that it hit him. But Varitek took off for first base and as soon as he did, the umpire made the signal that he got hit. It was bullshit. You could clearly see on the replay air between the ball and Varitek the entier time.

Now I’m even more pissed because if the plate ump hadn’t shat all over the strike zone tonight, maybe we’d even be within striking distance after the rally-killing home run.
I love baseball sometimes, even as I hate it.

but does it do any good? I doubt it. There is no reason any strike zone should be other than what is stated in the rule book. The fact that there clearly ARE individual strike zones out there and it is accepted, speaks to the absolute lack of accountability. There is a strike zone in the rule book. Call it.

I think it's a matter of consistency rather than being what the rulebook says
Most people probably don’t mind that it varies from umpire to umpire as long as it’s the same on the top and bottom halves of each inning. The last two nights it’s been pretty clearly not the same strike zone for the two teams.

If nobody else minds but me and Bob Costas (he claimed to mind in his book) then so be it. But I hate “individual” strike zones. Hate.

Guess huffy has to swing

i have to see the end of this game
as a side note after Bay's shattered bat...
the MLB needs to go ahead and ban maple bats. They’re just plain dangerous. You see several bats shatter per game… that just isn’t good. Just make a statement, “when play resumes after the all star break, all maple bats will be banned.” He can even quote me on that. Just protect the players and fans.
One of those last two pitches to Ortiz would have been strike 3 on Huff
That’s all there is to it about the strike zone tonight.

Wow, Pie is 2-for-3?
Is it okay for me to speculate that he isn’t totally useless? Unlike some former Cubs on the roster?

He's definitely a very useful fourth outfielder.
And less of a jackass than the guy that filled that role last year.

Interview with Luke
his hair is extra poofy tonight and he’s wearing a t-shirt that says “God is like….” with a list below it. I can only read the top one but it says “God is like coke….He’s the real thing”
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
I'm having very un-Christian thoughts about him
He would not like that.

God is like GE…He Lights the World
and
God is like Pan-Am…He makes the trip something something

I’ve been googling “Pan Am Tshirt” and “Pan Am Christian Tshirt” to try and find it, but I can’t.

that’s basically the shirt except Luke’s was black and definitely said Pan Am. My favorite is “God is like V05 Hairspray, He holds through all kinds of weather.”

the funny thing is we did need replay to know AJ caught that ball
unfortunately his glove came off
hope to see him back in tomorrow
I only have one sentence of the post game written

O’S WIN! O’S WIN! ORIOLES MAGIC!!!!

At some point tomorrow....
maybe after Brad pitches well, I"m going to set aside 30 minutes and read through the OTM game thread deom tonight.
That should be fun reading.

without a doubt
who cares about making an offer on a condo or picking up an engagement ring or driving from DC to Florida after a win like that???
all of that is child's play
compared to tonight’s game.
I will lead these Peoples to the promised land, also known as "Slightly Ahead of the Blue Jays." ~WietersRunDry
Here ya go...
1). Offer 5% below listing
2). Let the girl pick the ring. TRUST ME.
3). Get on 95. Go south. Stop when you reach your destination.
There, done. Now go celebrate this win!

If the condo is in FL
you should offer 20% below listing, or a box of milk and some crayons

You know what I just realized?
This game will totally be on itunes when the season is over. Gonna put this shit on my IPOD.

that's a thing?
baseball games on itunes?

it most certainly is.
I have several O’s comebacks, in addition to the playoff game where Cleveland’s insect population devours Joba.
"Believe it or not, I read the paper." - Nick Markakis
If only
there was a way to take a posted video of highlights and rip it into iTunes format…but that sounds illegal, so we could NEVER do that. Not tomorrow, no way. And certainly not e-mail it to friends who live far away. Totally illegal.
"We're not the other teams' farm system." - Andy MacPhail
if such a thing were to not happen,
i certainly wouldn’t want to be one of the emailed friends who didn’t get the nonexistent video

Lotta people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well. When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
Yeah, that sounds like a good way to kill the 13 hours until first pitch

We had FOURTEEN players appear in our batting order
counting pinch runners.
When’s the last time that happened in an AL game? That sounds like a ton.
"We're not the other teams' farm system." - Andy MacPhail
No idea.
But we used everyone in that game against Florida last week.

and don't forget
using a member of the starting rotation as pinch runner.

AND he scored the winning run.

I thought Guts had the tying run and Mr. Amazing Smile came in behind him with the winning run?
I could be wrong. Either way, it was pretty Birdland.
Actually....
Brian Roberts scored the winning run. GUts gave us the tie.

MBP Candidates?
Roberts (“Now he’s 1 for 1. And it’s a big 1 for 1”-DD post game)
Kickass (for kicking Anus (face))
Salazar (for making Earl Weaver proud)
Pie (For not non-nonchalantly holding the ball in center field)
Hendo (for keepin’ ’em down)
Wieters (because)
Guthrie (Tying Run)
Luuuuuke (because he likes God… and guns)
Am I missing anyone deserving of a mention?
