Big hit by Vavra 

 

It saves the inning.

Manoah settled in that inning.  Keep making him work,

Ump's strike zone is a tad big

Mounty crushes a double.  Oriole’s have runners on second and third.

Baseball is getting to be like the NF;.  The ump makes its best guess and lets the manager challenge.

Aside from swinging at a pitch that hit him on the foot, that was a pretty loud and productive out by Vavra.

How long before Vavra earns some ABs against a lefty?

I’m confused by that call on the replay. He swings, ball hits ground first then hits him. Catcher doesn’t field it. Run scores. What am I missing?
I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

Btw, that play Mullins just made is why the Yankees dealt from their (then) current starting rotation for Harrison Bader.

Baseball has a lot of dumb rules. Vavra swung the bat, but the play becomes dead because the ball hit the batter. Vavra is not awarded 1B because he swung (as such, ruled a strike).

Another inane baserunning mistake by Odor. He's been good at turning two, but man alive. Stop making stupid baserunning decisions.

[run would've scored had Odor stopped at second]

Running yourself into an out on the base path happens. But what is he thinking there? No way he should be trying for 3rd.

Odor is a great calmer of pitchers but not the best base runner.

Dammit. That inning should have gotten us runs.

Had Manoah on the ropes and Odor lets him off.

The Orioles leave a lot of guys on base.

If only they had quality hitters in the system who were ready to come contribute...

The plate ump has been very inconsistent.
