Huge game today. Maybe the biggest game of my life as an O's fan.
I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

Hey, you were alive in '79 and '83 lol.   Seriously, I agree...  it's obviously incredibly important.  I'm just hoping the O's can play from ahead today.

Yeah. Ive changed my mind. Thus as as close to must win as it gets since you dont want to go 0-2 after Tillman amd Norris' turns. Hate to have to rely on Chen in a real must win.

Obviously this game is more important than it was yesterday, but I don't think it's a must win (I know shocking). I'm sort of with Jeremy's line of thinking. Do you want to go down 2-0 in KC, of course not. But I don't think it's inconceivable for them to win 2 of 3 or even all of them there.

I'm at Pickles. On the right side at the bar. Have a couple seats and pitchers if anyone wants to have a beer.

Seats are still available and no I'm not talking about StubHub, off the O's website.

On top of the scoreboard, pretty much in the middle, front row.

That's pretty much where I was for Game 1 of the ALDS.

 

You can buy six SRO tickets, I bet the people buying $60+ of the same tickets off StubHub don't realize they are getting ripped off right now.

Sure...  there are examples...  '96 World Series being one (Yankees lose first two at home, take the next four)... but if you lose the first two at home, you can't feel good about the chances of winning 4 of the next 5.

I don't think the Royals are some world-beaters that they couldn't comeback from a 2-0 deficit from. You might as well just say every game is a must win, crucial, etc in the playoffs, because it pretty much is; then when it's an elimination game with your backs against the wall, you can call it a MUST MUST win.

It's a must win game.

Ok I guess we'll have to disagree here.

I don't understand why people can't pronounce Flaherty's name.
