It's Friday night and I've got a hot date with Joe Angel. Of course Fred Manfra will also be hanging around, third wheel that he is.
This game isn't on TV (we get our first one of those on Sunday), but it is being broadcast on 105.7 The Fan and will be available on mlb.com for you out of towners.
Chris Tillman makes his first start tonight and will be followed by Jim Johnson and Alfredo Simon, among others. The Pittsburgh Pirates will counter with Zach Duke, Daniel McCutchen, Virgil Vasquez, Evan Meek, (the other) Javier Lopez and Jeremy Powell.
Starting Lineups
| Pirates | Orioles |
| Akinori Iwamura - 2B | Adam "You call him Dr." Jones - CF |
| Jose Tabata - LF | Robert Andino - SS |
| Garrett Jones - RF | Nicky Markickass - RF |

Steve Johnson
He pitched okay today: 2IP 0H 2BB 0ER
I feel kind of bad rooting against him.

Weird line.
2BB but no H or K? I can’t tell what to think of that.
Don’t feel too bad; hopefully we won’t have to root against him for long.

I did a double-take when I saw Iwamura under "Pirates".
Izzy and Turner are out for Andino and Davis; dunno if you want to fix that.

Everyone, go to 104.7 wpgb to listen to the game. They are broadcasting it. Unfortunately it isn’t Joe Angel.

I think they just cut it off.
The MLB is full of money sucking bastards.

Iwamura grounds back to Tillman, Tabata fouls a few off before SO on a high fastball, Jones SO (fastball, I think).
So far, so good.

I've got the opposite problem
I’ve got the volume at about half of what it normally is. The audio is blasting.

And so far so good

Bottom 1
Jones grounds out (to 3B, I think), Andino flies out to CF, Markakis K’s on a high fastball.

Wow, Miggy with a barehanded throw
He’s taking to 3rd like a fish to water.

Top 2
Doumit K’s on checkswing after 3-1 count (not sure if swinging or looking), Pearce grounds to 3B, Moss flies to RF on a 3-2 pitch.
Sounds like Tillman’s curve is catching the corners very well, and he got 0-2 counts on Pearce and Moss.

Well, we signed him this off-season, and he's too slow for SS..
Oh, you meant batting. :)

Bottom 2
Double to CF by Miggy, Wieters flies to CF but moves Miggy over, Luke (you could hear a Luuuuke cheer) gets a sac fly to RF, Atkins gets to 3-2 and bloops a single to CF, Tucker grounds to 3B.
Turner just has a bruise, apparently.
Weaver's Fourth Law: Your most precious possessions on offense are your twenty-seven outs.
Atkins hit was a blooper?
Oh well. Normally I would say Spring only matters for pitchers, not hitter but, I think it would be nice if Atkins had a decent spring at the plate.

Hello kids
Garrett Atkins very impressive in the field, wouldn’t you say?
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Tom Davis
just said that MacPhail prefers a lefty closer because of all the power hitting left-handed sluggers in the AL East.
I count Cano, Drew, Ortiz, Pena, and Lind.
So…uh…there are more right handed or switch-hitting sluggers in the division:
ARod, Teixeira, Hill, Longoria, Zobrist, Martinez, and Youkilis.
What am I missing here?
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
I have strong doubts that MacPhail actually said that
I mean, I’m not calling Tom Davis a straight up liar, but come on. Andy MacPhail is no dummy.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
That's what I thought
I mean, there’s no way a guy half as smart as MacPhail would make that kind of judgment.
But I thought maybe there was some obvious power hitting threats maybe I forgot about?
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
I mean
Matsui and Damon are gone. Teixeira is a switch hitter but doesn’t have a weak side, neither does Posada really.
Crawford is a lefty but I wouldn’t call him a slugger. Travis Snider is a lefty but he’s just a future slugger.
I’d rather
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
It's cool
it just made me stop for a second and think “no way that’s true”.
/not a tom davis fan
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
that was going to say before Jones hit the HR and I had to stop typing
I’d rather MacPhail just say, “It doesn’t matter to us if he’s a lefty or righty because he gets everyone out.”
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Well for Red Sox
jd drew, ortiz. Yanks added granderson who hasn’t been great against lefties.
I think the real point is that lefties who can close generally aren’t weak against righties while some closers do have significant platoon splits against lefties. With so many switch hitters that’s probably more important
for elite closers
the difference doesn’t really matter with nathan’s k/BB ration being “only” 3.5 instead of 4.7 for 2009. Papelbon too has a split against lefties. I think it’s mainly a matter of not being stacked against with so many switch hitters in the AL East
aj, dino
you have to call for the ball guys
this is little league stuff
Top 3
Mike Gonzalez in.
Cedeno singles on a pop-up to 1B (wish I were kidding; the wind caught it).
Walker walks after Davis overruns a foul pop-up.
Cedeno steals third (Manfra said it was on Gonzo).
Raynor K’s on a 3-2 high fastball.
Iwamura singles up the middle to tie it; Walker goes to second.
Tabata pops up to shallow CF.
Jones grounds to 2B.
Tied 1-1. Gonzalez’s control didn’t seem great; he seemed to keep missing up and away.

Davis K’s looking.
Jones homers into the O’s bullpen in RF. (Opposite field? Nice!)
Andino grounds to 2B.
Markakis grounds to 2B.
2-1 O’s.

I've always liked Aki Iwamura
nothing else to add, I just think he’s a solid second baseman

I got his auto at a Dunkin Donuts in Tampa in 2007
He seemed pleasant enough.

Over/under on remarks about how JJ's "more comfortable" in the 8th?
Is 6.5 good?

I'll go over
If it were Joe and Fred I’d say under but Tom is gonna harp

I was pissed when they switched to FM radio
because a) I can get WBAL on Rochester summer nights (which is like fucking magic), and b) the extra quality obviously doesn’t translate to mlb.com audio, which is what I’ve been totally resigned to now.

Usually nowhere near as bad as tonight.

Top 4
Jim Johnson in.
Doumit singles on a grounder to 2B. Sounds like it was a tough enough play to be a hit but probably should’ve been an out.
Pearce flies out to RF.
Moss K’s swinging on a sinker.
Cedeno goes 3-2, grounds to 3B. Took a high hop on Miggy, but he seemed to handle it fine.
Weaver's Fourth Law: Your most precious possessions on offense are your twenty-seven outs.
as a steelers fan i'm pissed
but we have other things to worry about
alright i really don't want to get into this
can’t we just focus on the thing that we all have in common here?
Yeah, I heard Big Ben has more lady troubles
You think that guy could get ladies on his own.

Love it
LOVE it.
Steeeep price though, with Ozzie’s drafting record.
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
LOVE it
It Ozzie thinks he’s worth it, he’s worth it. And if they resign Mason, we go from one of the worst WR corps to solidly top 1/3 with upside.

It was nice
a lot of nothing. “What do you think of Matusz?” “Are you going to get better this year?” “What was it like to go to the All Star game?” I love me some Adam Jones, though, so you know I slobbered it up.

Good news: the Orioles are good guys
Whatever, give me some assholes that win.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Yeah, the last few times I've been to the yard....
…..it reminded me of minor league hockey games. A bunch of puck-bunnies who care more about how cute the guys are rather than kicking some ass.

Well
I’d rather have nice guy Kevin Millwood than Sidney Ponson or Armando Benitiez…so it’s not all bad.
I’d rather have Prince Fielder and his awesome home run celebrations than…well, let’s just say, a certain pretend first baseman.
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
I'll take nice guys if they can hit
I’ll take guys that eat kitten tacos if they can hit, too.

Atkins 2-2?
Stop trying to make me like you.

Bottom 4
Tejada flies out to CF.
Wieters flies out to LF.
Scott lines one over SS for a single., keeping his average at 1.000.
Atkins hits a double off the wall… somewhere; I was reading and missed it.
Tucker grounds out to SS.
Still 2-1 O’s.

The Jake Arrieta is in!
And I was going to turn it over to my substitution chatter. I guess I’ll tough it out and go an extra inning longer.
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
Hi Jake Arrieta!
It’s too bad I can’t see your pretty, pretty face.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Sorry. Sometimes I forget the audience :)
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Heck
I’m sorry I can’t see his handsome face. Pitchers as a rule are fugly monsters or fat assholes or at best non-descript geeks, but Arrieta is genuinely attractive. My Yankee-loving girlfriend and I both agree, so it’s not just me.
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
Mussina was a pretty handsome fellow
Probably the best looking guy to play for the Orioles.
Check out more of my highlights at dailymotion.com/gatecitycanes
That's true, now that I think about it
So it’s not a strict rule, but the overwhelming majority of pitchers are butt-ugly trolls. For every Mike Mussina there’s Adam Eaton and AJ Burnett and James Shields and Sidney Ponson and John Lackey (what is wrong with your faaaaaaaaaace?) and on and on
Bedard says he doesn't care and thinks goals are pointless.
don't forget the most hideous of the all
Bartolo Colon
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Mussina was good looking
There have been better though. Javy Lopez and Corey Patterson were both gorgeous except for the sucking. And don’t forget this guy.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
ahahahaha I might say that actually
and then I’d immediately feel kinda embarrassed.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
My ex-wife liked Javy a lot......
…….she really liked him on the Braves. She had already pulled her Irsay move when he came to Baltimore.
I don’t like the ethnic types myself. I have a bit of John Mayer in me :)

I’m not normally attracted to hispanic guys but Javy transcended all that.

Moeller in for Wieters. Arrieta pitching (good stuff; didn’t know that was happening).
Walker gets to 3-2 and walks again. (I’d much rather have a hitter with that name than a pitcher.)
Walker steals second. Good throw by Moeller, close play, but safe.
Raynor singles on a grounder to LF. Walker to third.
Iwamura K’s swinging.
Tabata walks. Bases loaded…
Jones grounds out to 1B, scoring Walker. Men on second and third.
Doumit K’s swinging.
Tied at 2.
I wish Davis were spending more time describing the pitching and less time rehashing and talking about Arrieta vying for the rotation. About all that Manfra said was that Arrieta did not look sharp.

Andino reaches first on an error to SS. Davis scores.

I thought he was “lucky he’s in fucking baseball.”

You never heard that name for him?
Also, give him some credit. I don’t think Pie would have ever had a 2nd half like he did if it weren’t for Crow. He did what he was projected to do a while ago, whether he sucks this season, or not. If he doesn’t, Crow deserves a lot of credit.

Until very recently I thought Matt Angle was black. I have no idea why.

I thought he was related to Kurt.
So we’re even.
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
That would be pretty awesome
Especially if he carried around Kurt’s gold medal and all his interviews were about the three I’s.

Time for the Coors Light

hahah
Coors Light isn’t my fave for cheap beers. I prefer the Miller.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."

Might need to switch
I usually buy CL out of habit, but haven’t been exactly enjoying it lately. Might be time for a switch.

I bought a super cute Markakis tee tonight
It caught my eye in the Modells so I figured what the hell. I’m very pleased with it. I hope it’s warm enough on OD for me to wear it.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Is there ANY other kind?
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
Here it is!
I had to get a new one because my Nick the Stick is too big.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
I know!
poor guy. the saddest was when he started to melt and his head just fell right off.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
I stopped at the mall on my way home to get a few things
such as the Markakis shirt and there were a billion people all dressed up for this movie. Why are people so weird?
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
yea
i remember all of the ppl dressed as pirates for the 3rd POC movie and in star wars shit for revenge of the sith
I bought it at Modells
Give me a second and I’ll find the website where I found that picture.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Here you go
But if you have Modells near you I’d just go there. They had a ton.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Aw Patton was doing so well
until he gave up that HR
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
That apparently went into the Gulf of Mexico from the description

Top 8
Troy Patton pitching.
Tabata flies to CF. Puns about Angle and angles ensue.

Manfra put the hex on him
Right after he said Abreau would be his favorite Oriole if he got a hit he whiffed.

the lengths people will go to to avoid Fred Manfra
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
You know, I normally don't dislike Fred as much as some others do
but the combination of him and Davis makes him pretty insufferable.

I like Fred all right normally.
But Joe Angel is simply awesome, I think I just I don’t notice Manfra’s shortfalls when he’s there. Davis can’t cover him.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
also Fred just seems a mess tonight
“I can’t read my notes, quite honestly.”
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Not well, either.

Top 9
Alfredo Simon pitching.
Diaz K’s swinging.
Walker singles on a grounder to SS. Maybe should’ve been an out; hard to tell.
Raynor singles on a blooper to RF. Walker to third.
Young singles up the middle, scoring Walker. Raynor to third.
With Tabata batting, Young steals second.
Tabata lifts a sac fly to RF.
Van Every K’s swinging.
5-3 Pirates. Bleh.
Weaver's Fourth Law: Your most precious possessions on offense are your twenty-seven outs.
doesn't really sound like a bad inning
single to SS? blooper to RF? Not much you can do as a pitcher. 2 k’s and no walks is nice.
ahahah Tom Davis,
Florimon is very tall!
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
We're not dead yet
Runner on 1st on an infield hit.
The tying runs comes to the plate in form of Jeff Salazar!

Fred Manfra is obsessed with comparing Salazar to Markakis
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
All this talk about Jeff Salazar makes me kinda miss Oscar.

Bottom 9
It’s up to the minor leaguers.
Angle grounds out on a bunt to C.
Florimon breaks his bat and singles on a grounder to SS.

You can put this one in the loss column.
"It feels like home,’’ Pie said. "All my friends are here."
Well, that sucked
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
Oh well. We'll get 'em tomorrow.
Or not. It doesn’t matter.
Good night renegades!

Chris Tillman pitched well
Let’s let that be the take-away of this game.
"The moment you stop thinking you're the best, it's time for you to get out the game." -'King' Mo Lawal
Yeah, that's the important thing.
Nice to see the HR by Jones, too.
