ParticipantWell gorman hits one out. Wasnt surprising, they kept pitching him in the same location, even gorman could see that. This pitcher for the orioles isnt that good from my viewpount. We should score some runs, enough, whose to say.
August 26, 2026 at 7:38 pm #317309Looking at some Oriole rosters from the past I was reminded that Rick Dempsey had a 24 season Big League career. That’s a long time to survive as a human backstop.
August 26, 2026 at 7:46 pm #317312Along with this edge of your seat action, I’ve been flipping the channel over to the Dodgers/Braves game. Dodgers are up 3-2 with the help of a 2 run tater from Little Eddie.
August 26, 2026 at 7:52 pm #317313Well you fellers enjoy the rest of game.
I got some paint I need to go watch dry.
August 26, 2026 at 8:07 pm #317314I’m not sure what Pages availability is tonight. He’s thrown a lot of pitches lately. But hopefully he has enough in the tank to go two if Ollie needs it.
August 26, 2026 at 8:11 pm #317315Yeah, he’s pretty good.
August 26, 2026 at 8:23 pm #317316McGreevy went 170 IP each of the last two years and he is now at 140 so he shouldn’t be wearing down.
August 26, 2026 at 8:29 pm #317317Walker doubles in a run.
It’s 7-4 now.
2nd and 3rd one out.
Getting close to getting back into this one.

ParticipantWell the cardinals coming back . Get a break, the left fielder completely whiffed on a ball. I knew they could hit this pitcher. Of course the blame is on the orioles manager as well. It was clear their pitcher was gassed. After a easy win last night their bullpen should have been rested. Cardinals just tied it up.
August 26, 2026 at 8:39 pm #317319That was refreshing. Like they were playing early in the season.
August 26, 2026 at 8:43 pm #317320Gassy is the best arm in our pen. He continues to dazzle!
August 26, 2026 at 8:46 pm #317321Pugs, he is making guys look silly isn’t he. He took on the heart of their order and made every one of those guys look outmatched
August 26, 2026 at 8:51 pm #317322It’s almost like Gassy needs a larger challenge, Albert. I don’t think Ty Cobb could hit Gassy…….other than on the chin with a right hook after Gassy sent him back to the pines with the bat still in his hands for the fouth straight at bat.
August 26, 2026 at 9:05 pm #317326Beyond even just skill, Stanek is such a boring pitcher to watch.

ParticipantI think holidays son will be fine but i think he swings at the first pitch way too often esp for a leadoff hitter. I understand the bunting over of the runner by the guy before him but i think it actually made the inning easier for the cardinal pitcher.
August 26, 2026 at 9:49 pm #317328Looks like our old pal Kitty will be center stage for Baltimore in the bottom of the 9th to try to close matters out for the Marylanders.

ParticipantObriens stuff just isnt as good lately. He used to be almost unhittable but to me his stuff right now is very hittable. Just a matter of whether it gets hit at somebody or not.

ParticipantKittredge looks kind of amusing out there. He doesnt look like closer stuff to me. Also doesnt really have any pitching form.
August 26, 2026 at 9:58 pm #317332It is time to start worrying about Riley?
August 26, 2026 at 10:03 pm #3173331982 willie
ParticipantWell ended up being a good game. We lost it but good things happened.
August 26, 2026 at 10:04 pm #317334He was cheap.
August 26, 2026 at 10:05 pm #317335And Kitty claws his way back to earn the save after allowing 2 men to reach base.
O’Brien is starting to falter. Luckily we have Gassy waiting in the wings. He definitely is the next man up.
August 27, 2026 at 7:43 am #317346Riley is at 55 appearances. Last year 61 all together. August is no time for a closer to be running out of gas.
August 27, 2026 at 8:09 am #317350Well I missed a heck of a comeback but yeah, you don’t want your closer to have an ERA over 3 and OBrien’s is now over 4.
Yikes.
August 27, 2026 at 10:42 am #317372Last week his ERA was under 3. The debacle in Philly and last night has shot his ERA up.
