Yankees 4, Orioles 0: Another day, another loss

PrintDear Brian Matusz,
I'm so sorry that you have to play for such an awful team. You're so young and even though you're not quite there yet, every time you pitch we can all see how dominant you'll be soon. Even on a day when you were facing possibly the best offense in baseball and were the victim of some cheap hits and the ridiculously hot Robinson Cano, you stuck it out for six innings and held the Yankees to 3 runs. But did the offense help you at all? No.
Your teammates were only able to manage three hits tonight and none in the same inning. They put on a pathetic display, frankly, and you have every right to be disappointed. At least Nick Markakis and Nolan Reimold helped you out on defense as they each made a very good catch in the outfield. Nick even laid out for the ball in that classic Nick way. Not that either did anything for you at the plate.
I hope you won't get too discouraged, Brian. You're only getting better and eventually the bats will give you some support. In the meantime, the Orioles fans who love watching you pitch are thanking their lucky stars that the rules of baseball ensure that you can't leave Baltimore of your own free will for a number of years.
I'll catch you in five days, Brian, when you face the Yankees yet again. I'm looking forward to it already.
Love,
Stacey

Cano is my new "least favorite Yankee"
He was sooo overrated for sooo long, he was my favorite Yankee for a while. At least Tex sucks a mean pole right now.
That was a piss-poor effort Birds.
No one was Birdland tonight. (I refuse to acknowledge that that was Albers on the mound)
Earl Weaver: "You're here for 1 reason!"
Ump: "Oh yeah, Earl. What's that?"

Brian Burres is shutting down the Dodgers
and Kevin Millar is a TV star. When does this Twilight Zone bullshit cease?
Another Yankee home game at OPACY
Fuck this shit. It’s so fucking depressing.
On the plus side Stacey that lot you recommended was badass. Thanks.

Awesome
Glad it worked out. It’s so convenient to get out of the city from there. I used to live just one block down on Penn and Portland and that’s how I found it. You can’t park in that neighborhood without a permit during the baseball game so I’d have people park there when they were coming down for the game or whatever. It’s never let me down.

It’s crazy that it’s so close to the stadium and was so empty. There were tons of open spaces and we got there 10 minutes before game time. I guess the attendance probably has something to do with it too…

I think a lot of people just don't know about it
If you’re not familiar with the city you probably wouldn’t be on that stretch of Pratt St as most end up coming up Russell St from 295 or 95, which dumps you on Pratt east of that intersection. That’s all I can figure. It’s a hidden treasure.

I’ll definitely park there every time from now on. Can’t beat $8 and the location. Are any of those little bars you pass on the way to the stadium good? they seemed decent.

Camden Pub is pretty good
I haven’t been to any of the others on Pratt St. My roommate when I lived down there was a former Pickles bartender so we usually just went there when we wanted to walk to a bar.

Pickles looked pretty miserable before the game yesterday. Completely packed – mostly with MFY trash.

Yeah we never went there then
If there is a game that is not against the Yankees/Red Sox it is usually pleasantly crowded, and if there is no game at all there are like 10 people there, all of whom know each other.

Agreed.
That place is perfect.

It's at the intersection of Pratt and Penn
Right by the ME’s office and Shock Trauma, one block east of MLK Blvd.
Hopefully all my talking about it doesn’t make it the hopping new parking garage and it starts filling up and they jack up the price!

is it called the penn street garage or the pratt street garage?
google maps is of little assistance here
by twistedlogic on Apr 30, 2010 10:07 AM EDT up reply actions
I believe it was called the 'Penn Street Garage'
either way, you can’t miss it. Once you turn onto Pratt it is immediately to your left. There is also a side entrance/exit on Penn St if you overshoot the Pratt entrance

Do parking garages have names?

This one does (on Google Maps anyway)

hmmm
clearly my wink-wink "I don’t know what you are talking about " post wasn’t as clear as I had hoped. I guess I need to work on my “wink-wink” abilites over the internet. I’ll get it one day.
I love that lot.
When I go to games with my dad we park there coming from Columbia. Now I lightrail it but I still love that lot.

It's the end of April
And the Orioles have won 4 games. I know that the team has a lot of young talent, but it doesn’t feel like it even matters tonight.
Librarians are hiding something
i still
i still hate fat albers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i really don’t care how good he piched. i hope dave trembley goes earl weaver one of these games and argues a call the correct way. if matt weiters is god/jesus then brian matsuzs is buddah. p.s. fuck you yankees and your douchbag fans.

That may have been the most disconcerting part of the game...
That Albers pitched well and I couldn’t blame him for fucking up any chance we may have had. C’mon Albers! Work WITH me here. Be the scapegoat I desperately need.

Stacey,
I don’t think you deserved the award, but I did find it to be great radio.

Like I said, I enjoy hearing dramatic readings of things I’ve written.

yankees on tv
I have been an O’s fan for over 40 years. I live in the adirondacks and don’t get to see them play on tv often. When I do its mostly on the Yankee network. I watch all kinds of baseball and I have to say Ken Singleton is the worst announcer ever.
That's because you've never heard Fred Manfra?
