Around SBN: Shootings Near Thunder's Arena Follow Win Over Lakers

GameThread: Yankees @ Orioles, 1:05 p.m.

The most storied sports team in the history of stories deigns to play a game today against the lowly Baltimore Orioles. Brad Bergesen is making his fourth start of the year. His opponent on the mound is Alfredo Aceves. I haven't been paying much attention to the Yankees this spring, but if memory serves Aceves is battling with Phil Hughes and Joba Chamberlain for the fifth spot in the rotation. A quick look at his spring stats show that he's had a decent spring, pitching 14.1 innings and allowing 6 earned runs, and he's only walked one. 

Bergesen has allowed 2 ER in each of his three starts so far, but his innings have increased each time out and he's reported to be pain free. Nothing to complain about there. 

Lineups!

New York Yankees Baltimore Orioles
Derek Jeter - SS Felix Pie - LF
Nick Johnson - DH Miguel Tejada - 3B
Mark Teixeira - 1B Nick Markakis - RF
Alex Rodriguez - 3B Matt Wieters - C
Robinson Cano - 2B Adam Jones - CF
Nick Swisher - RF Luke Scott - DH
Marcus Thames - LF Garrett Atkins - 1B
Randy Winn - CF Ty Wigginton - 2B
Francisco Cervelli - C Cesar Izturis - SS
Alfredo Aceves RHP Brad Bergesen - RHP

Depending upon the health of Brian Roberts and Nolan Reimold, this could very well be your Opening Day lineup. While I'm not in love with Miggi in the two hole, I kind of like Adam Jones at #5. If Reimold and Roberts get healthy, a lineup of Roberts, Markakis, Reimold, Wieters, Jones as your top five sounds all right by me. 

Today's game will be broadcast on MASN. Yay! This is the first locally televised game since March 7th. That's a crying shame.

I just got my cable set up two days ago and I had Caps hockey in HD last night and O’s ball today. It makes the cable bill worth it.

Damn, gonna miss this one.

How come Curtis Granderson is not starting in CF today to NY?

I am absolutely loving our first 5 batters. Such a great lineup. Adam Jones could be a 3-4 on so many other teams.

Let's see...

1. Roberts 2B
2. Markakis RF
3. Reimold DH
4. Wieters C
5. Jones CF
6. Tejada 3B
7. Pie LF
8. Atkins 1B
9. Izturis SS

I could live with that as a OD lineup. Definitely.

You should have seen her at FanFest

She seriously looked stunning. Not that it made it appropriate for the guy during the media panel to stand up and say “I don’t have a question, I just wanted to tell Amber that she looks stunning and we’re all lucky to have you around all year.”

Yes

and Amber was clearly VERY uncomfortable. Then later someone asked another question and Spencer Fordin answered it, and Amber had a response. And at the end of whatever she said she added, “And Spencer I just wanted to tell you that you look stunning today.”

angling for more alcohol on camera

Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.

I found myself walking next to Mickolio at FanFest

That dude is unnaturally large. I mean, he’s 6’9" so obviously but just like, his arms and his legs and everything are just so long. it’s like he’s some sort of weird exaggeration of a tall person.

don't all answer at once!

i would be if there wasnt already a CC fantasy baseball draft and NCAA tournament basketball on tonite. i actually enjoy watching the mls at times….plus seattle was a great addition to the league last year.

Its why I'm missing the draft unfortunately

if it was just the first game, i’d watch from home. but its Philly’s first game ever, so I need to be at the bar.

Probably tough for this to really take off,

MLS already has a pretty established community at bigsoccer.com

I don't know anything about that

I just pass on the news :)

lol

Honestly, I was looking for apartments then and that whole snow nightmare was not doing much to endear Baltimore to me. Particularly since New York got nowhere near as much snow. Coming up here was like a tropical getaway. : )

The Learning Annex.

I finally opened one of those newspaper boxes on the street and found a path toward enlightenment! Who knew they could fit that in there?

If that doesn't work out....

Considered that...

…but Bob Kerrey’s admission of massacring a Vietnamese village while he was over there on active duty really harshed my buzz, man. I can’t see the Buddha being a part of something like that.

Nice catch, btw...

….I only made one comment where I let on about it.

I meant to say something there

where it would have made more sense, but I must have gotten distracted.

it happens..

So it looks like you guys lost the Pop but gained 2632. I’ll be happy to head up our New York operation up here though, now that I’m back in the Big City. And if you need me to head down to MLB headquarters and make some noise, just say the word.

It seems like a fair trade on the awesomeness scale

Shame we lived in practically the same neighborhood since I moved last August and we never got together for a beer.

y’know, 2632 is descended from German nobility. I shit you not.

Shame these defining moments commercials seem to be back

but at least I feel a little bit better when they’re about Brian Matusz vs the Blue Jays instead of Jeremy Guthrie vs Evan Longoria

Read the lineup, bro :) Ima throw up a recap after I take care of some other business because hey it might just be ST but the Orioles just whipped the Yankees asses.

i'm tottaly rubbing this in my school's arrogant bandwagon fans in their face

and it wouldn’t surprise if one of them didn’t know that it wasn’t spring training but rather regular season.

In one game as a freshman at Miami, Wieters hit a two-run homer in the top of the ninth to put the Yellow Jackets ahead, then pitched the bottom of the ninth for the save. On that day, the God nickname was bestowed. - Sports Illustrated

by BaltimoreSportsFan on Mar 25, 2010 4:46 PM EDT reply actions  

I wouldn't go too far with it

I mean, it IS spring training. It looks kind of desperate. Besides, don’t give them a reason to mock you if they destroy us in the regular season.

by daveh873 on Mar 25, 2010 4:48 PM EDT up reply actions  

Besides, don’t give them a reason to mock you if when they destroy us in the regular season.

Let’s face it. It’ll happen at least once.
