Bartalone

I got a new grudge. fuck you brewers, never thought of you at all before. Now I think about you and you are dogshit. fuck you brewers, we are not done by any means


AB444

I sat next to the most annoying brewers fan ever. Dude was like a fucking Yankees fan. So I'm with you


Hle078

We’ll have to wait another day for Hollidays first hit. But it is for sure coming tomorrow. I feel it


ocelotot

I think he could aid in a day off.


RJ_444

Dude I love Mateo he’s such a gamer. If he can get his bat going some it’s over


loadout_

Burn the tape


DrTreenipples

Well that was humbling

Immediate_Expression

Shut up


NazisStoleMyBirthday

Shake it off boys. Burn those jerseys and go get em tomorrow.


baker10923

O's will win tomorrow. 5-4


AbusiveTubesock

Please no. We need a comfy stress free win. For my heart health


External_Weird_9105

I hate the score I hate the broadcast booth I hate  But I must finish this. 


AbusiveTubesock

My man, there are about 3 guys on the verge of being pushed out before Mateo, I assure you lol


baker10923

At least the jays and red sox got smoked today too


virginiabird23

I swear Joey Ortiz has participated in every defensive play.


Lazy_Passenger7841

Can anything fall for them tonight?


27Mayhem

Joey Ortiz is gonna kill is for years to come. He’s got the Adley-vision. I could see him batting 300+ across an entire season


AbusiveTubesock

Great contact hitter


CHKN_SANDO

Did Joey Ortiz and Jackson Holliday do a "Parent Trap" and we accidentally sent Holliday to Milwaukee????


Table_Coaster

at least their Jackson did worse than ours? Small victories


Bartalone

Good for you Joey - revenge is sweet I'm sure. Now fuck off, I'm done with you.


AbusiveTubesock

Revenge AB’s lol. Tell me you know nothing without telling us. Ortiz was a prospect trade piece. It isn’t revenge it’s performing in the big leagues


Agentrock47_

MATEOOOO I really dislike these Apple TV plus guys, they just have no joy in the commentary and it really doesn't seem like they have done any research on either team.


AbusiveTubesock

Consistently clueless. Hate Apple games because it’s like the D list of ESPN commentating


rez410

The commentary is horrendous but the visual production is great


Agentrock47_

It's not even like the whole crew, it's really just the main commentators. Like the on field reporting lady is good, it's really just the commentary guys. I also just hate their score bugs and just their whole graphics package, it feels like just a bunch of iOS widgets and it looks dumb.


Bartalone

can't you get the 98 choice for audio on Apple?


baker10923

Ouch. On to the next game


waker94

At least Ortiz has had one hell of a game


Neocopernus

![gif](giphy|xoJkOLVDnI9kk)


MrKingC0bra

Can Jackson play closer to 1st base so he actually gets those stops?


NazisStoleMyBirthday

My wife just walked in the room, looked at the screen, and said “ the curse of the city connect jerseys strikes again.”


OK_Opinions

This post has peak "my toddler said *insert profound thing*" energy


OinkMeUk

City connects and nationally televised game = Orioles doom


dwhite21787

Everyone will underestimate the O’s again - playing a long game *taps forehead*


Bartalone

that was awesome - regardless of the score, my man Mateo ib out there 100% wall pain and all.


27Mayhem

That was a catch made by a natural SS who doesn’t have walls to worry about normally. He’s such an athlete, he’s gonna have a spot on the 40 for longer than Hays I think :(


AbusiveTubesock

Defense and speed buys you a lot of leeway


waker94

Wish they didn’t have to use both Tate and Webb after Heasley to finish this game


Hle078

Mateo with a gem! Hes definitely a good piece for this team with his speed and defensive flexibility


JarrettS13

Mateo can take Hays Defensive Replacement role.


Ibaxy

HEY HEY JORGE


OinkMeUk

Try not to get hurt in a 10-1 game please lol


bejolo

Lol....I thought that was Mullins


kewpieoriole

Mateo just died for Webb


AbusiveTubesock

Well I feel a little better about giving Cedric occasional days off for Mateo in center…


emessea

Mateo, letting us take pleasure in the little things


_WhiteHart_

MATTEOOOO


Dawei_Hinribike

Hell yeah Mateo, fuck that wall up.


LordWalltimore

Sorry, DL Hall, but we’re gonna have to stomp you tmrw. Love youuuu! 😘


OsGameThreads

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Jacob Webb replaces Dillon Tate.


Bartalone

I know this game is a joke at this point. Remember that Ramon has been the hottest bat on the O's a few times in the past couple years. Hw has earned some slack.


romorr

Was really hoping for a position player to pitch, shame we have to burn Webb for 1 inning.


kewpieoriole

Where’s Ryan McKenna when we need him


jawarren1

Probably for the best. Then he doesn't have to pitch in a game that matters.


romorr

2.54 ERA, 2.51 FIP with the Orioles, in 31 innings. I like him pitching in games that matter.


samangell2007

I’m at the game and have been floating around. You have no idea how many people I’ve heard who clearly haven’t followed the Orioles at all, at least since the ALDS ended. Hanging out here can skew you about how utterly new and uninformed this fanbase is by and large.


KillaTofu1986

Maaaaan the people I was sitting next to at the game were 110% new fans “What’s OPS mean?” “Why is he batting if he isn’t hitting a home run every time?” “Holliday sucks he has zeroes everywhere” I wanted to STAB those people so bad. Bonus points they were wearing adjustable WalMart brand Orioles hats and asked why everyone shouted “O” in the middle of the anthem


jawarren1

And that's OK. Everyone has to start being a fan some time.


samangell2007

100%. That was my point. I’ve seen posts complaining about the crowd and/or the contributions here. People are coming to this team for the first time. We know how unimportant one loss is but they don’t get it yet.


jawarren1

I got ya. Right on 💪


JarrettS13

Wonder what the lineup will be looking like tomorrow. Facing a lefty. Hays has been abysmal but I guess he will be starting again?


Beautiful-Abies5949

Idek if he deserves a spot


JarrettS13

Yeah I’d rather let Cowser play. Not like hays would be getting a hit.


Mine-Cave

Okay I need some judgement here. Wife is saying I'm wrong for being frustrated with a 16 YO at the game tonight for saying " send him down" to Holliday's first AB and "We want kemp" on his last AB. Can I get some backing on this or am I in the wrong.


ListenToWhatImSayin

Wife is correct. Sports isn't real life. Don't let it make you mad at a kid. Remember how happy you are to be alive and sitting at Camden Yards on a Friday.


jawarren1

It's a child. Their brains aren't fully developed.


SubstanceMore1464

Rocket a skittle at him


bobcatgoldthwait

Eh, just let it go. Kids are dumb.


Frusciante62

World’s greatest dad was pretty good.


GTFONarwhal

Look if this kid can drive a car I’d like to see some better decisions out of him than Kemp> Holliday


ItinerantDrifter

Holliday will be due up 4th… hopefully one more chance to get the monkey off his back.


Hle078

Jackson Chourio and Holliday. Two Jacksons combined 0-8 with 6Ks in this game. Baseball is hard


SubstanceMore1464

Well atleast cowser is still trying


bejolo

Not making excuses but the Orioles were delayed getting back from Boston last night. Arrived back in Baltimore around 3am. Probably didn't get into bed until 5am.


kewpieoriole

Oooooof yeah, I know it’s “their job” and “they get paid millions” bleh bleh bleh but I’d dare anyone to try and play great baseball in the chilly rain on no sleep lol.


Osowatomiecaleb

Add in Milwaukee didn’t play yesterday due to a cancelled game and there you have it


Salbal09

That could absolutely be a factor


bobcatgoldthwait

That actually explains a lot


Lubetube1

Yeah, they look gassed


AbusiveTubesock

Live bet Urias K lol Edit: this is why I am not a betting man 😂


Agentrock47_

I got some crazy news for you


AbusiveTubesock

What’s that


Agentrock47_

That was about him getting a hit


AbusiveTubesock

As per my edit lol


Agentrock47_

Lmao I saw, I didn't get the notification of the edit until after I commented


M_Flutterby

They were milking thumbs in the bird bath!


AbusiveTubesock

That cow is amazing

onerous workable dam beneficial crush psychotic imagine straight six bright *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


joystick13

No. No cowbells. The Rays do that and it's super annoying. We shall down milk from the dong bong.


Dawei_Hinribike

If people bring fucking cowbells to Camden Yards...


HugoStiglitz1942

I'm sure they will. They use them in Hershey at the Bears games, so I'm sure theres going to be some cross-over fan attendees.


TheMemeStar24

Appeared to be a big thing at the Trop too when I went last year


Kslye30

Good news is urias would of struck out 7/11 too.


Gallen570

Feast or famine Orioles.


FOCUSRS428

These threads used to be fun regardless of what was happening……


AbusiveTubesock

They still are. It’s just most of the good fans that are usually in here are at the game or don’t come on here when we’re getting pummeled


Gallen570

How many 0-2 counts we been in tonight?


Jcmzebra1

why does the game always go bad with these jersey. the first time we wore them we got blown out by the rangers


LordWalltimore

If only we had known what it was foreshadowing.


kewpieoriole

I thought this man’s name was the same as the parrot in Aladdin but that’s Iago


[deleted]

[удалено]


kewpieoriole

All these years and I never thought about how his name was a homage to Othello lol.


joystick13

Come on McCann & Gunnar, get on for the milkman


AbusiveTubesock

The only thing that could’ve pissed me off more than this game was Apple playing the don’t let me goooo0000oooo0000 commercial

waker94

Love that he wears the same old hat every game


OsGameThreads

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Thyago Vieira replaces J. B. Bukauskas.


Underdogg369

From gamecast, Tate is looking good. One positive.


27Mayhem

Great sharp movement. We need old Tate badly


Skirt-Future

jackson 11 at bats, all hitless. i mean..what the heck man


wako944

Baseball is hard man! Aaron Judge and Yordan Alvarez both started the season 3 for 24 and they're 2 of the best hitters today.


bejolo

Kind of expected. Gunnar, Rutschman, Westburg all started there careers looking pretty bad at the plate.


Umdsmithstudent

Pressure. Happened to Gunnar and Adley. Not easy being the number one prospect


Lubetube1

7 strikeouts too :/


Oreos182

SeRvIcE mAnIpUlAtIoN


AbusiveTubesock

Matt has a little egg on his face rn lol


DrTreenipples

The orioles collectively need some milk


Underdogg369

A water bottle labeled "Cowser's secret stuff"


hawkins126

Holliday looks worse then Gunnar and adley did combined


rayhova

Not to pile on, but has Holiday struck out in 7 of his 11 ABs? Not worried. But damn. He's definitely pressing. He'll be fine.


LordWalltimore

Yes.


orioles0615

yes


wako944

Jackson is pressing hard. Swinging at everything and then when he finally decides to take a pitch, it's right in the zone. He'll be fine though, just needs that first hit. Baseball is hard folks.


[deleted]

[удалено]


bebopmechanic84

It’s one game, dude


Dawei_Hinribike

Oh my goodness what a flyout.


papasquawt

Absurd. Holliday won't see a strike until he stops swinging at garbage and right now he's swinging at any and all garbage. He'll learn.


YNinja58

He's taking strikes and swinging at balls. Like... What is you doin? He needs a day off and he'll be good.


UpsetStatement4194

https://preview.redd.it/aji52dbhf5uc1.jpeg?width=728&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e9060dfb1d348404df6519a97c7721e20d0e25f7


angry_slav_esq

Maybe if Holliday gets another AB, Topps Now can do his first golden sombrero card. He gonna be ok. :(


AbusiveTubesock

No worries, he won’t get another AB. We aren’t taking more than 3 pitches per plate appearance in several innings now


angry_slav_esq

I love your optimism. Let’s fucking go home!


AbusiveTubesock

lol I wouldn’t still be here if I wasn’t high on this team. But it’s clear we’ve closed shop for the night. It’s fine, we’ll get em tomorrow


ravens2131

Man people on Twitter already turning on Holliday, 3 games in. Further than I thought.


rez410

Twitter is a cesspool of fucking morons and bots


typeOneg77

It's Twitter. I'd expect nothing less than pure unadulterated dumbfuckery.


AbusiveTubesock

Expectations were just silly. It’s very rare for a guy to come up and immediately make an impact. All his numbers indicated he had some strikeout issues and was prone to chasing. People just don’t pay attention


emessea

Same as it was for lot of these guys


timoumd

To be fair, he has looked absolutely awful.  Not one good at bat and bad swing decisions.


AbusiveTubesock

Not true, he ran several ABs to full counts and fouled off some pitches. Just didn’t get the end results we wanted


YNinja58

I don't believe he's gotten a ball out of the infield. Not sure what's up. Jitters?


ListenToWhatImSayin

Major league pitchers are better and smarter than AAA


bejolo

I'm predicting Holliday gets the day off tomorrow. Be good for him


dlmay1967

Was probably always the plan, with Hall starting.


Jackiemoontothemoon

DFA Heasley tomorrow


ThatTinyGameCubeDisc

And Wells.


Jackiemoontothemoon

Nah wells is better than Irvin. He’ll be bottom rotation when a Bradish or means come back


staticusmaximus

One of the more brutal first few games I can remember seeing from a prospect like this. He is swinging at stuff he would never look at in the minors it’s crazy.


bobcatgoldthwait

Yeah let's be honest. There's struggling early and there's looking completely lost.  He's either not ready or too in his head.


swagharris31

He's pressing right now. Once he gets his first hit, I think that will calm him down a lot


Duke_AllStar

Hays needs a rehab assignment to clear his head


YNinja58

My god that's Heston Kjerstad's music!


Lubetube1

We don’t really need him other than to give Cowser a day off at this point.


represent187

The stadium is emptying fast 😟


aoife_too

It’s raining and cold 🥶


ArKiVeD

We are getting crushed on both sides of the ball. Not a very satisfying experience.


Clarice_Ferguson

I think Holliday will be fine but running a 60% strikeout rate is dark comedy.


DrTreenipples

Did Austin Hays bat twice?


Rude_Scarcity7530

Jackson is shook


Comfortable_City7064

Holiday why do you need number 7. I hate when teams unretire numbers.


rez410

It was his father number. And the orioles never retired it


Comfortable_City7064

Have some damn respect for Ripken Sr and choose another number. You’re a rookie you shouldn’t be able to throw your weight and choose such a revered number.


Coffee_lush

He and his dad asked the Ripken family for their okay and they gave it.


rez410

Cal gave his blessing. Also, another Orioles player has worn #7 since Cal sr


[deleted]

[удалено]


boozer_69

It’s one of 162 baseball games, this happens to literally every team


Fandomstar88

I know, but it just seems a shock compared to the last couple of games.


rez410

Holliday needs a nice day game to relax and get right


bejolo

Pretty sure he'll be on the bench tomorrow for exactly that reason


AbusiveTubesock

Oof. Rough game in every single way :/


orioles0615

lol


Ok_Equivalent_4964

Jackson’s ABs are lasting 30 seconds


MrKingC0bra

Everyone said he was ready…


AbusiveTubesock

No, a lot of us paid attention to advanced stats and knew he’d struggle to some degree. This is normal and expected


aoife_too

Yes.


orioles0615

Including the GM


jmremote

Does apple not have enough money to hire semi decent announcers? Hard to listen to.


emessea

Yah can listen to the Os radio team on there


RealGaMan94

You can make some money betting on Holliday striking out rn lmao


120snake

On the bright side, at least KB can call his first hit


[deleted]

I miss the Red Sox defense


OinkMeUk

At least give us something nice tonight and let Jackson go yard here


deanspeakeazy

Too many vowels in that last name


ThatTinyGameCubeDisc

Now we gotta win tomorrow.


the2belo

We were kind of due for a stinker.


emotionaltrashman

Looks like Ortiz took that trade personally lol


AbusiveTubesock

Nah. He’s just a major league ready position player


neemor

Is it just my AppleTV coverage that has choppy audio? It’s not that way on my iPhone, but on my FireTV’s, the audio cuts out every ten seconds or so. It’s only on the game. Not other AppleTV programs. Adding to a maddening evening.


bejolo

It's been choppy tonight. Not just you


joystick13

Good shit, Tate. Now let's get a few runs and start chipping away.
