Having Henderson bat 3rd for no reason was an interesting decision. Not that it has mattered as there have been no rallies.

The way they're hitting, 4 runs is pretty much insurmountable. Maybe everyone should take Mullins lead and just start dragging bunts.

Had 6 runs all in the 6th or later on Friday night. But sure, practically insurmountable... it's like some people think there is a prize to the first person to declare a game lost.

Agree w Brown and McDonald. This is the best pitching the O’s have faced this season. That slider is freakin dancing.

It doesn't matter who they're facing right now. You could probably throw 5 shutout innings.

There's a prize? Damn, I should have said it was over after the first inning.

Nah. Keller’s been putting on an absolute clinic.

[russsnyder]

Gotta swing that stick Kyle.

Stowers with the hat trick.

4-0 Pirates through 7.

Absolutely.

Have to give credit where it's due.

[TwentyThirtyFive]

Stowers up here with a 35% k rate and beyond laughable slash line and its like yeah just keep running him out there

[russsnyder]

Keller out after seven scoreless innings.

He shut down the water to the keft field bleachers in the process.

Question: why isn’t the net out of play?

[russsnyder]

Henderson double.

Water turned on in left.

[CantonJester]

Wow - Does the ump realize Keller’s out of the game?

[russsnyder]

Question: why isn’t the net out of play?

Good question.

Maybe because the ball stays in play after it bounces off?

[russsnyder]

4-0 after 8.

[CantonJester]

Good question.

Right, but it had to leave play once it passes the wall. It didn’t have to hit a fan. Like, if it bounced back after hitting a railing, the runners all took an extra base. Seems odd the same logic doesn’t apply.

It's generally been annoying to watch, but let's hope for a good finish.

[CantonJester]

The idea that Frazier wouldn’t tag his head and instead chase a bunny rabbit is pretty silly.

[russsnyder]

Stowers K's again.

This time swinging.

Silver Sombrero time.

It looks like he might have caught some hair anyway, and if so, I agree with McDonald about using HBP logic there. If a pitch can catch an nth of the seam of an outstretched flap of jersey and put a man on first, tagging a few hairs on the head should count as an out.
