Game Thread: Orioles (Irvin) v Twins (Ober), 7/7 @ 7:10pm CT

[Squirrel]

Yes, yes, it’s Apple TV. It is what it is so let’s carry on. Go Twins!

 

[nicksaviking]

I might finally get to watch a game. The last game (that I knew about) on Apple TV was Mother's Day, which was a poor time for me to tell the wife we weren't going to do what she wanted to do that night.

[wsnydes]

Booo apple tv!  

 

Okay I'm done.  That's out of my system.  Moving on...

[stringer bell]

Kepler is the lefty in the lineup. Okay I guess. Get some work done fellas. 

[stringer bell]

I get Apple TV+, so I kind of welcome a different perspective. I have heard enough of the D-Train. Don’t know who will be the commentary.

Spots 6 thru 9 looks rough; I hope the top of the order gets it done.

I said to myself, ‘Hmm, okay … might be room for substitutions later in the game’ 🙂

You think so?  That's such a rarity with this team!

[NotAboutWinning]

At least they are all batting above .200 🤣🤣🫤

[OvertheHill]

Irvin is better than his numbers but I think there could be some walks to be had if the Twins lay off pitches out of the zone.

[SwainZag]

No Adley in the lineup is certainly good news for the good guys

[Road trip]

I was kinda thinking lineup spots 1 - 9 looked a little rough, but I'm slow to adjust to this new era of (non) offensive baseball.  Let's go win 2 - 1.

And, with one exception, below .250.

No. Up to $615m for Saturday’s draw. Might buy a ticket or two before leaving FL and buying another when I get back home tomorrow aft

Outstanding catch by Taylor to start the game. 

[Craig Arko]

K em out throw em out DP.

[Beast]

Just a couple observations.

Bailey Ober is a freaking pitcher.  What a stud.

Kyle Farmer should have never hit clean up in his baseball career.  All due respect to the value he brings, but come on….

[HokieRif]

This TV coverage is total BS... I have MLB.tv AND I'm in the local zone for the O's and I can't get this game at all.  WTF MLB!?!?!

Somebody complaining about MLB coverage, I don't think I've ever seen a post like this before...

[CoastiePilot08]

Do the umps have it out for the twins or what?

these guys are good pitchers. Why aren’t they getting the calls?

[Craig Arko]

I do kinda miss Wes Johnson coming up to Bailey Ober’s belt buckle.

[mrtwinsfan]

Solano , gotta wait for the ball , not reach for it,  ober had him

[IaBeanCounter]

Hope Ober can get through 6.  Lot of pitches

 

[mrtwinsfan]

Okay batters, its okay to start hitting off this Junk baller,  Anytime  thought bucks was gone

[mnfireman]

And the ugly K rears its head....
