Gunnar slump would be a death knell

Ugly line for Povich, but kept us in it for the most part.

Would one clutch hit with 2 outs be too much to ask?

Runner on 2nd, no outs.... stranded at 3rd. Pretty much sums up the last couple weeks of Orioles baseball.

It's frustrating, but Cole is pitching a nice game.

All Gunnar needed to do was hit a ground or fly ball. No stand and watch strike 3.

For a slop pitcher, Povich has horrible control. He's pitching in a time where hitters are just begging for you to strike them out and he's walking 5 in 5 innings. Not going to play in the major leagues.

Agree that he can't have a career if he averages 9 walks per 9.

3 ER through 5.1 isn't TERRIBLE, but tough to survive with a WHIP around 2 unless you're facing an offense similar to the Orioles with runners on base.

And to be fair, one of those ERs is BS due to the Santander blunder.

They score two without the error, IMO. Single, double, clean single that easily scores runner from second. That's two runs without the extra bases on the first single.

I'll hear an argument that Povich pitched differently to the second guy, hunting a K or popout, with no outs and runner on third and that could've impacted the sequencing
