Orioles 0, Mariners 5: Matlock marathon tonight?

One.
That's the number for the night. It's the number of baserunners the Orioles managed against Jarrod Washburn and the Mariners. One. One Nick Markakis single was all this team could muster, after scoring 6 against the Angels two nights out of three. I'm guessing there was a Matlock marathon on TBS, and the guys decided to start their clubhouse TV viewing early, rather than waiting until the 5th or so. I could go over the Seattle scoring, but after Russell Branyan's 1st inning homer, does it really matter? That one was all they needed.
Oh, I know all about Washburn's numbers for the year. But this was embarrassing. One hit? Really?
I'm posting a MBP poll for one simple reason - Kam Mickolio was promoted from AAA today and comes in and strikes out Ichiro Suzuki on 3 pitches.
One. One baserunner. One hit. One more aggravating, frustrating loss in a season that's still got a long way to go. At least it took less than 135 minutes to play.

Well I didn't watch all too much of this game...
but I saw that Bergesen won MASN’s player of the game poll, so that means he did better than Washburn right?

Mariners fan, but...
Have to say I liked Mickolio. I’m also enjoying having the chance to actually watch Adam Jones. x3
Look upon my 62% faceoff win rate, ye mortals, and despair!

Ive enjoyed watching Bedard go on the DL time after time
and pretty soon you can enjoy watching Chris Tillman, Adam Jones, George Sherrill. AND Kam Mickolio all on the Orioles at the same time! Fun!
(disclaimer: I still like Buh-dard and dont actually wish him any ill will, I just think its funny every time he goes on the dl. Its like the deal just gets better every time)

New Suck.....
this is got to be one of the most frustrating Orioles teams that there ever has been, bar the 1988 O’s when they rattled off 20 something loses in a row to begin the season……This club needs a serious foot up the whazooo, they need a motivator, a true leader, dare I say a “Captain!!” Oh how I wish Cal would purchase this club and Peter the Goat would sell it too him cause I promise you this Cal would not put up with this nonsence!

not at all
this has been one of the most fun Orioles team I’ve gotten to watch ever in my life. Finally, I get to see something that resembles a future. Peter Angelos has been doing a great job recently, primarily by letting MacPhail have his way with the team. We don’t need a “captain” i.e. a .220 hitting catcher from Boston. We just need to be patient and allow our pitching to develop. With a little luck we could be contending next year.

Cal... really?
you really think Cal is going to turn this thing around any faster? I love Cal…. I wanna name my next kid after him, but the ship is already moving in the right direction. Cal couldn’t do anything that McPhail isn’t doing. Plus, if Cal became the owner and the team still sucked, do we want to rememebr him that way?
It’s cool to be frustrated with a team when they are in the top 5 in payroll and putting up these numbers, but we are talking about kids who are going to bring the glory back to Charm City in the matter of a few years. Patience my friend!

Too bad we didn't get perfect gamed...
that woulda been a cherry on top of yet another frustrating season.

There's always tonight!
Not that Bedard could make it into the 8th…

No perfect game tonight.
BUH DARD is on a 60 pitch count limit.

Against the O's, I'd say he still has a slim chance.

HEY!
Don’t you talk about my O’s like that. Only we’re allowed to diss them.
Just for that Adam Jones is hitting a bomb off of BUH DARD.

LIke that rules out a perfect game against the O's.
The way we swing at first pitches? It could be done.

How hilarious would it be..
If we got perfect gamed on 27 pitches.
The pitcher could start the next day!

well i wouldnt be laughing at all!
but if we we’re the ones doing the perfect gaming, then i’d think it was pretty darn funny

MASN's player of the game.....
That poll bugs the crap out of me, I know we are mostly O’s fans watching the broadcast but seriously give credit where the credit is due…If we play a sucky ass game like last night, no Orioles player should be up for the vote. It just gets me every time, of course people are going to vote for the lone Oriole, but to me if the other team had 3 better choices then vote for them. Maybe it’s just me…..
I want to move to 2110 Eutaw st.....
