How do I judge plays, hits, pitches against a team like the Orioles?

yikes ... baltimore's crew just announced that the Twins have blown 16 games this year and that this is a 'gettable game'

There is a non-zero chance that could happen.

[IndianaTwin]

Did a little math (I know -- don't) and determined that it would take just over 10 Baltimore shortstops to make a Galvis ton.

The sano hot spurt had the life of a mayfly

Do you remember that postseason game in Cleveland when Joba Chamberlain was pitching, and they suddenly swarmed him and the game had to be stopped? 

[raindog]

Gladden basically just said he got in trouble for complaining about that hit call.

Going with Robles in the seventh, that’s mildly surprising. 

I hope they will try to get two innings from him...

I believe those were technically called “midges”, and I thoroughly enjoyed it

Some first rate, high level baseball insight right there, ladies and germs.

One sentence???!!??

 

Who are you and what have you done with doc?

LMAO! Tired and blew my energy reserve with a couple posts before sneaking in. I will endeavor to do better!

Berrios struggled some but can't argue with the results. He batt,led! That's what a good pitcher does. 

Can't believe Refsnyder has been playing a solid CF and actually hitting and producing, Enjoy your time in the sun my man! Keep it up!

Better?

I noticed how hardly any of the players have a Doris Day song as their walk up music anymore.

Wow - Colome - well it is against the Orioles.  How exciting it this?

Galvis ton, oh Galvis tonnnn...

[Vanimal46]

Oh great, this roller coaster again. 

[Danchat]

Colome is so much worse in close games, it's night and day. When the stakes are low, he's great, but yikes...

You don't try to quantify it. You just enjoy your team winning and suddenly playing better.

It's kinda like drinking Busch Lite vs drinking Stella. You could have just spent a little more for better...but...it's cold and does the job.

[mikelink45]

Nice job Colome - just keep throwing those beach balls up there.

That depends on whether you've ever been Experienced...

I have a vague memory of my brother maybe not so accidentally breaking the arm off of my sister's knock-off Barbie, and I think her name was Midge.
