The Blue Jays changed their starter.

It is not possible for them to give all of their regulars off, because of the 28 man roster (29 for today)

Nick Vespi is the Orioles, 29th man.

Adley can sleep for the next month, let him play both games please!

Sure he won't catch both, but catch one DH one seems doable. That's what he did on the 5th.

Game #161 underway with about 200 fans in the stands.  

It will be interesting to see if the teams speed bat (swinging at the first couple of pitches), their way through both games.

Baumann with a quick first inning.

The Jays take a 1-0 lead with 3 straight hits in the 2nd.

Otto Lopez owns the O's.

Bill Miller is the Home plate ump and he has a strike zone the size of Texas.  Palmer called it pathetic.  And it is only the second inning.

Otto Lopez owns the O's.

He has been a great one for a long time.

Both teams are swinging like the train is leaving the station.  

Through 4, still 1-0 Jays.  

It feels like a spring training game.

Including interviews with Westburg and Watson.

Orioles up in the 5th. Still 1-0.

Baumann with 5 solid innings.

Baumann: 5ip, 6 hits, 1 er, 1 bb, 3 k's

Baumann gives up a 3 run shot to Moreno.  4-0 Jays....Is it okay to move on to game 2?

Don't know why Hyde sent him out for the 6th.  Gave you 5 good innings.  Don't have to save the pen.  Should have him out on a high note.

Baumann had his season ERA under 4, but now he's going to finish at 4.72.

Poor management by Hyde there. Makes no sense.

Hays with a 2 run double makes it 4-2.
