GameThread: Orioles (13-27) @ Rangers (22-18), 8:05 EDT
Baltimore Orioles at Texas Rangers, May 19, 2010 8:05 PM EDT
Did you know the Rangers are the only team in the AL West with a winning record? The last place team in the AL West is the Seattle Mariners. They have one more win than the Orioles and they are 7.5 games behind the first place Rangers. The Orioles are 7 games behind the fourth place Red Sox.
The Texas Rangers have been around since 1972 when the Washington Senators moved to the Lone Star state. The Orioles have an overall record of 227-177 (.562) since then. Since the Orioles began their current losing streak in 1998, their record against the Rangers is 55-62 (.470). In the past five years, the O's record against the Rangers is 20-28 (.417). It just keeps getting better, doesn't it?
Of course the Rangers have been on the other end of some of the worst beatings the Orioles have ever taken. I won't go into them, but if you're want to re-live the misery, check out the series preview over at Lone Star Ball. Also check out the caption on the photo posted.
Facing the Orioles tonight is the pitcher the Rangers traded Kevin Millwood to make room for. Rich Harden hasn't exactly been tearing it up in Texas, pitching >5 innings just three times and giving up a boatload of home runs and walks. In his last outing vs the Blue Jays he went just 2.2. innings and allowed 7 runs. So you know what that means. He's well rested! Harden hasn't faced the 2004 season so there's no real history with the current players. Miguel Tejada faced him 15 times when he played for the Astros with three hits and three strikeouts to show for it. None of the other Orioles have more than a handful of ABs against him.
Jeremy Guthrie has always had decent success against the Rangers. In 7 career games (5 starts), Guthrie is 3-0 with a 3.48 ERA and 1.277 WHIP.
Let's do this. The Rangers are better than the Orioles, but they're not as much better as the two records would indicate. Just keep that Ian Kinsler off the bases, Guts. He killed the Orioles last year, going 16-for-44 with 4 doubles, a triple, 3 home runs, and 3 walks. I got so tired of that dude last year.

My sister’s mom lives in that town and my sister went to high school there for a year. When Wieters signed I told her about it and she said, “I guess that makes one rich redneck.”
awful wouldve been if the ball ended up in leftfield,
it still wasnt pretty though

The Rangers and Hamilton
… were robbed in that inning. I root for the Orioles, but I wish the Rangers had found a way to score Hamilton that inning.
How so?
It bounced on top of the protruding wall, which is IN play, and did not go over the railing. Right?
"Oh, and Joe? If Brian hits any of your delicate millionaires, know that he meant it." - Stacey
there's a gap between the wall and the railing,
it looked like it hit a support in between the wall and then bounced back
I think it hit..
… off the back wall, or maybe a support brace between the front and back walls. I guess it depends on the ground rules, but the Rangers announcers are saying that the back wall is out of play.
Yeah, go peek in at LSB.
Everyone is still pretty livid over there.

trying to extend his hitting streak to THREE straight?
THREE straight is NOT a hitting streak
It's worse.
“Extend” means he already has a hitting streak. A two-game hitting streak.
I really think they just shouldn’t talk about it unless it’s 5+ games. Maybe not even unless it’s 10+.

His batting average is in the .250s now with 4 dingers and 13 RBIs…..

tops in the majors in percentage of runners thrown out
plus, take a look around, it’s joe mauer, jorge posada, and no one else right now for catchers.
