This is why you don’t fucking tank the game yesterday in the late innings with the bullpen. Win when you can. Also, why does Nick Swisher have a job? What a colossal asshat.
Beat themselves today. Left too many in scoring position. Wild pitch keeps the game going. Sucks because Atlanta didn’t really do anything to deserve the W today.
Well this series showed we can compete with the best of them. I’m more sad we had to burn through our bullpen in extras when we have to ~~head to~~ play Tampa
Ugh, hate they came back and won it but it does seem like they used quite a bit of people. Some threw a bunch of pitches too, so we will take that as a positive.
1-3 in the series, but I feel confident in this team. Perez should NOT be on this team when Givens and Tate come up. I still have very high hopes for this team.
Why don’t teams walk the first batter they see in these spots with the ghost runner?
Asking because in The Show I do it almost every extra inning game lmao
The analytics don’t support bunting there as the away team. Bunting is playing for 1, which is as likely to push it to another inning as it is to win the game, and the more extra innings you play on the road the more likely you are to lose.
Also we didn’t PH for Stowers because the new C is the only guy left on the bench.
So let me get this straight. We pull one of our best hitters and fielders for a pinch runner...and let the gut hitting .095 hit?
This is what happens when a place holder manager oversees a team that got good ahead of schedule and then they decide to keep him as manager. He's out of his league.
Why are these teams trying to be smarter than the situation? Folks, man on 2nd and no outs - bunt to move em over then hit ‘em in. Very simple way to win this
Braves fan here - Orioles are as advertised with the relief and offense - if your starting pitchers come around - or you get someone in a trade, you will be very dangerous. I don't have time to watch the rest of this game - but good luck.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/13azmvb).
What a game. Cheers to you guys, fun team to watch.
This is why you don’t fucking tank the game yesterday in the late innings with the bullpen. Win when you can. Also, why does Nick Swisher have a job? What a colossal asshat.
Of course Perez blew it. Why take Mike out he’s got the stamina to give you 2 innings
Prob because we have to play Tampa tmrw, so they don’t want him completely unavailable Edit: words
Not only Tampa, but McClanahan… rough
We sold
Beat themselves today. Left too many in scoring position. Wild pitch keeps the game going. Sucks because Atlanta didn’t really do anything to deserve the W today.
Lets just seeep the Rays to get back in it. The team will get to sleep in their own bed for the first time in 2 weeks
Can't leave the bases loaded twice
Well this series showed we can compete with the best of them. I’m more sad we had to burn through our bullpen in extras when we have to ~~head to~~ play Tampa
Good news! They’re coming to us!
Oops! I meant play lmao, thank you.
Yea that’s my annoyance too - hated burning the bullpen.
Yeah would have almost rather they walked us off in the 9th instead. I mean would have rather won but you know what I mean lol.
Looks like the Rays’ bullpen got touched up a bit at least.
Ugh, hate they came back and won it but it does seem like they used quite a bit of people. Some threw a bunch of pitches too, so we will take that as a positive.
Agreed.
Fuck!
1-3 in the series, but I feel confident in this team. Perez should NOT be on this team when Givens and Tate come up. I still have very high hopes for this team.
That wasn’t a bad pitch at all
The double would disagree
you are aware batters get paid to.... well... hit
Yup, and pitchers are paid to get outs. He’s got close to a 5.00 era for the year. He needs to be sent down; not good enough for this team
Brutal loss
Should have won that game. 0/10 with RISP in 9, can't strand that many against one of the best teams
Ugh, so dumb.
Already someone blames Perez? Good one.
Well at least he denied Pillar. I could hardly have stood if Pillar was the one to do it to us again. See ya later, guys.
Welp at the very least we didn't get sweept!!! so props to us for that
[удалено]
Well that sucks. Great series though. Taking one of three in atlanta is nothing to hang your hat on though. O’s definitely battled.
That was on our LOB
Fuck
Pain
God Dammit god dammit god dammit
Okay we fought hard, brush it off and get some sleep gents, the real fight starts tomorrow
Ah well, that’s a bummer.
Ugh like worst case scenario Adley has to catch like 6 innings and the bullpens toast
I feel like Hyde surrendered by putting cionel in lol
damn, but heck of a series
Shitty series man. Should of been sweep and we end up losing series
Brandon Hyde is awful. I've been saying it for 2 years and it's still true.
....shut up. We have one of the best records in the majors with a group of players no one's heard of.
They win in spite of him. Any manager with the slightest bit of common sense bunts in the 12th
Huh?
Had every chance and blew it
Fuck you Manfred
well its been a fun one. see you all tomorrow. hopefully in person
I'll be there
Fuckkkkkk
Blew our whole fucking pen to pitch Perez wtf
sadness ensues.....
.
KILL ME
That's what happens when you don't hit with RISP
Perez has just been a major disappointment this year.
Fuck right off
Lotta bad decisions cost us this game And batting with RISP
Alrighty
Unclinch them booty holes y’all. I can deal with that
Welp, fuck that
Gg boys. Tough loss
Welp
Do you think they will call up someone to get a fresh arm in the bullpen?
not even sure who you demote.
This seriously feels like a playoff game. Why.
2nd and 3rd best teams in baseball dueling
Intentional Walk Ozuna. I guess that works.
Orioles get Pillar out challenge: successful!
What did it cost? Everything
😿
Cio-nara
HUGE
Ok Cionel, keep it going
Hey, I didn't realize it was Pillar up there. OH HE STRUCK HIM OUT !!!!! HOW GRATIFYING THAT HE DENIED PILLAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOLY
Get fucked Pillar
Not today pillar, NOT TODAY
Oh lord that was a filthy pitch.
Walk Pillar please. His run doesn’t matter.
Wtf
Oh God... Perez pls Edit: thank God it won't be pillar
Why don’t teams walk the first batter they see in these spots with the ghost runner? Asking because in The Show I do it almost every extra inning game lmao
The analytics don’t support bunting there as the away team. Bunting is playing for 1, which is as likely to push it to another inning as it is to win the game, and the more extra innings you play on the road the more likely you are to lose. Also we didn’t PH for Stowers because the new C is the only guy left on the bench.
Imagine if they fucked around and just pinch hit and used that catcher. Also, I fucking hate bunts.
For those keeping track at home, we have now given up the DH
Welp
If we force this to the 13th .... wow. Cmon, Cionel. Show everybody you've found your way back.
PILLAR DONT
perez pitching I'm usually anti-doomer but im gonna take a shower while i think about this L
Fuuuuuuuuck it Pillar
Man, why not just leave Baumann in?
Draining the bullpen, a Hyde specialty
fuck you kevin pillar
Well its been fun guys, catch you tomorrow night
Don't fucking do it, Pillar...
can pronounce Perez properly but somehow can’t pronounce Urías
God dammit if we lose this to Pillar again I’m gonna go ballistic
Channel all your 2022 birds chaos right now We need 2022 Cionel!
So let me get this straight. We pull one of our best hitters and fielders for a pinch runner...and let the gut hitting .095 hit? This is what happens when a place holder manager oversees a team that got good ahead of schedule and then they decide to keep him as manager. He's out of his league.
sincerely, WendysNumber6 President; Cole Irvin Fanclub
Cole Irvin ride or die cause it's all we got!
Oh no Perez vs a right.
Oh fuck. Perez vs Pillar
Jfc it's Pillar
is the third string C the only guy left on the bench?
so who is playing 3B
Fuck. Its Pillar. Time to lose again
Pillar oh no. This is bad bad bad
Kevin pillar!! Exactly who I want to see up!
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Cionel Perez replaces Mike Baumann, batting 1st, replacing center fielder Cedric Mullins.
I’m scared. It must be Cionel time
No bunt from Stowers? I don’t get it.
Perez :/ please 🙏
Oh no
embarrassing
We’ve had way too many opportunities lost the last two days
.100 avg. Why is he still batting?
Stowers is stuck in AAAA purgatory right now
Feel like it wouldn’t have been a bad idea to bunt Stowers he ain’t done shit at the plate
yea i didnt understand that either
I think most of us are a bit quick jumping on Hyde but fuck, that inning ain’t it.
Ben McDonald has represented us well on this broadcast.
O's don't have enough pitchers for this nonsense...
Why didn't stowers bunt to try to move the runner?
Commenter Bipolarity Status: Fire everyone and burn down the stadium
Trying to be positive, but just don’t see the braves letting another opportunity to win the game go to waste.
Gonna be exhausted tomorrow
Literally nobody can get a big hit for us today. 1 for 13 risp.. this game should have been won.. annoying
Just brutal with RISP and we’re going to need some help for the pen tomorrow. Lot of guys unavailable
Do we even deserve this one?
Mistakes making so we can’t win this. Yet.
If we get to the 13th Mateo needs to be bunting
I am again praying for more Oriole magic
Batting .95 is disgusting tbh
you can live with .950 on your roster
.095*
Stowers cannot still be on the team tomorrow morning. He’s a black hole in the lineup
Ugh don’t think we get bailed out twice prove me wrong pitching
I was begging for a squeeze
Even if he wasn't bunting, you gotta put ANYONE ELSE (McKenna pinch ran, my bad) in for Stowers, he's fucking 0-5
McKenna pinch ran for Urias
Oops, well shit put anyone else in for him
I think our only bench guy is the new catcher we picked up lol
JUST FUCKING POKE ONE!!!!!
Fuck. I was hoping theyd mess each other up and drop it
Thanks Hyde. Genius move there.
IF ONLY THEY DROPPED IT
Lol yea I was hoping for a miracle there
Just awful ABs with RISP Jesus fuckk
Man... they almost collided
No runs again. God dammit
Fuck me
RISP RISP RISP RISP PAIN PAIN PAIN PAIN
Fuckity fuck lol
Ballgame.
Are you 12
You called ball game 20 minutes ago and were wrong. You don't get to call ballgame anymore this game!
How many times are we going to say this
Ceddy plus pop out, a match made in hell
Fuck this game
1-13 with RISP. Need some magic from Ced here.
PLZ CEDDY
So nervous
That’s a double if Kyle stowers bunts because infield would be in. Hyde is a dumbass
Kyle is also a dumbass at the plate. Swings at everything with his eyes closed
We have the lead if you bunted stowers... Hate to be an armchair manager but jeez
Bold of you to assume Stowers gets the bunt down.
also bold to think the pitch sequencing would be the same
Fucking seriously?? He hit the shit out of that
Stowers bunts, that's a double with the infield in and 1 down.
You got this Cedric
Mullins you only hope
That would have been a run if Stowers bunted.
damn i thought that was a double down line off bat... ok how bout we get a passed ball run
Rutschman been very cold lately
C'mon Mullins
Why are these teams trying to be smarter than the situation? Folks, man on 2nd and no outs - bunt to move em over then hit ‘em in. Very simple way to win this
That's such horrible game management by Hyde
Stowers is now batting .095..... unacceptable by ANY standards
Probably time for him to go back down and call up Cowser
do you really want Cowser being the 4th OF?
He’s not, McKenna still is. Cowser plays rf snatander Dhs
It’s a gots to go situation.
Kyler stowers is not a major league player and that’s ok
the Toronto snaggletooths
Braves fan here - Orioles are as advertised with the relief and offense - if your starting pitchers come around - or you get someone in a trade, you will be very dangerous. I don't have time to watch the rest of this game - but good luck.
Wow didn't see that coming...
Ugh Stowers.... why not a bunt
