Game 2: Orioles @ Rays - 4/2/2011

[Don]

Maybe Vlad gets a break and Scott goes to DH....somehow people questioned earlier in the spring as to why the Orioles should continue to give Pie a spot on the roster....it is plays like those that should make him an everyday player.

Surprised to see Shields still in. Matt might punish him for it
or he could almost hit into a double play.Pie will win this game at the plate next inning

[BuckMagic]

BUCK YEAH!!!

[DougDE]

Who had Brob in the homer pool?

[Oriolefan88]

OK OK OK we were wrong,but who cares BROB! 3-RUN SHOT!

What happens when you throw a meatball kid, welcome to the AL East where flat rising fastballs go to die....

[TheBuckStopsHere]

Nothing better than a second baseman with some pop.

[Shorebirdfan]

Wasn't my guess, but we will certainly take that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jordan Tuwiner]

Brian Roberts just murdered a baseball.

Is it Gonzalez or Koji in the 8th? I dont know who's due up for Rays

I believe it's Gonzalez.

What sutble key that this lineup is different?

Maddon pulls the lefty, right between Nick and Derrick two nights in a row. These types of things pay dividens in the rubber match game and will especially be a horse of a different color later in the season. Alot of teams will do this and it will bite them in the rear and cost them a game...

Is it just me or does it scare anyone else seeing this guy pitch at this time of year in this stadium?

Just thinking the same thing. All I think of is last season when Carl Crawford smacked the walk off single.
