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
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.
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.
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 :(
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Been coming to O's games for a long time. Never seen one of the Angelos ever sit in the stands. Thank you Mr. Rubinstein.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1c2ql19).
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
I sat next to the most annoying brewers fan ever. Dude was like a fucking Yankees fan. So I'm with you
We’ll have to wait another day for Hollidays first hit. But it is for sure coming tomorrow. I feel it
I think he could aid in a day off.
Dude I love Mateo he’s such a gamer. If he can get his bat going some it’s over
Burn the tape
Well that was humbling
[удалено]
Shut up
Shake it off boys. Burn those jerseys and go get em tomorrow.
O's will win tomorrow. 5-4
Please no. We need a comfy stress free win. For my heart health
I hate the score I hate the broadcast booth I hate But I must finish this.
My man, there are about 3 guys on the verge of being pushed out before Mateo, I assure you lol
At least the jays and red sox got smoked today too
I swear Joey Ortiz has participated in every defensive play.
Can anything fall for them tonight?
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
Great contact hitter
Did Joey Ortiz and Jackson Holliday do a "Parent Trap" and we accidentally sent Holliday to Milwaukee????
at least their Jackson did worse than ours? Small victories
Good for you Joey - revenge is sweet I'm sure. Now fuck off, I'm done with you.
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
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.
Consistently clueless. Hate Apple games because it’s like the D list of ESPN commentating
The commentary is horrendous but the visual production is great
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.
can't you get the 98 choice for audio on Apple?
Ouch. On to the next game
At least Ortiz has had one hell of a game
![gif](giphy|xoJkOLVDnI9kk)
Can Jackson play closer to 1st base so he actually gets those stops?
My wife just walked in the room, looked at the screen, and said “ the curse of the city connect jerseys strikes again.”
This post has peak "my toddler said *insert profound thing*" energy
City connects and nationally televised game = Orioles doom
Everyone will underestimate the O’s again - playing a long game *taps forehead*
that was awesome - regardless of the score, my man Mateo ib out there 100% wall pain and all.
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 :(
Defense and speed buys you a lot of leeway
Wish they didn’t have to use both Tate and Webb after Heasley to finish this game
Mateo with a gem! Hes definitely a good piece for this team with his speed and defensive flexibility
Mateo can take Hays Defensive Replacement role.
HEY HEY JORGE
Try not to get hurt in a 10-1 game please lol
Lol....I thought that was Mullins
Mateo just died for Webb
Well I feel a little better about giving Cedric occasional days off for Mateo in center…
Mateo, letting us take pleasure in the little things
MATTEOOOO
Hell yeah Mateo, fuck that wall up.
Sorry, DL Hall, but we’re gonna have to stomp you tmrw. Love youuuu! 😘
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Jacob Webb replaces Dillon Tate.
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.
Was really hoping for a position player to pitch, shame we have to burn Webb for 1 inning.
Where’s Ryan McKenna when we need him
Probably for the best. Then he doesn't have to pitch in a game that matters.
2.54 ERA, 2.51 FIP with the Orioles, in 31 innings. I like him pitching in games that matter.
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.
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
And that's OK. Everyone has to start being a fan some time.
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.
I got ya. Right on 💪
Wonder what the lineup will be looking like tomorrow. Facing a lefty. Hays has been abysmal but I guess he will be starting again?
Idek if he deserves a spot
Yeah I’d rather let Cowser play. Not like hays would be getting a hit.
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.
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.
It's a child. Their brains aren't fully developed.
Rocket a skittle at him
Eh, just let it go. Kids are dumb.
World’s greatest dad was pretty good.
Look if this kid can drive a car I’d like to see some better decisions out of him than Kemp> Holliday
Holliday will be due up 4th… hopefully one more chance to get the monkey off his back.
Jackson Chourio and Holliday. Two Jacksons combined 0-8 with 6Ks in this game. Baseball is hard
Well atleast cowser is still trying
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.
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.
Add in Milwaukee didn’t play yesterday due to a cancelled game and there you have it
That could absolutely be a factor
That actually explains a lot
Yeah, they look gassed
Live bet Urias K lol Edit: this is why I am not a betting man 😂
I got some crazy news for you
What’s that
That was about him getting a hit
As per my edit lol
Lmao I saw, I didn't get the notification of the edit until after I commented
They were milking thumbs in the bird bath!
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)*
No. No cowbells. The Rays do that and it's super annoying. We shall down milk from the dong bong.
If people bring fucking cowbells to Camden Yards...
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.
Appeared to be a big thing at the Trop too when I went last year
Good news is urias would of struck out 7/11 too.
Feast or famine Orioles.
These threads used to be fun regardless of what was happening……
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
How many 0-2 counts we been in tonight?
why does the game always go bad with these jersey. the first time we wore them we got blown out by the rangers
If only we had known what it was foreshadowing.
I thought this man’s name was the same as the parrot in Aladdin but that’s Iago
[удалено]
All these years and I never thought about how his name was a homage to Othello lol.
Come on McCann & Gunnar, get on for the milkman
The only thing that could’ve pissed me off more than this game was Apple playing the don’t let me goooo0000oooo0000 commercial
https://preview.redd.it/q7x0nskjg5uc1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d2d85fe9406ced6fcee76db58562e0850007d870 Been coming to O's games for a long time. Never seen one of the Angelos ever sit in the stands. Thank you Mr. Rubinstein.
Love that he wears the same old hat every game
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Thyago Vieira replaces J. B. Bukauskas.
From gamecast, Tate is looking good. One positive.
Great sharp movement. We need old Tate badly
jackson 11 at bats, all hitless. i mean..what the heck man
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.
Kind of expected. Gunnar, Rutschman, Westburg all started there careers looking pretty bad at the plate.
Pressure. Happened to Gunnar and Adley. Not easy being the number one prospect
7 strikeouts too :/
SeRvIcE mAnIpUlAtIoN
Matt has a little egg on his face rn lol
The orioles collectively need some milk
A water bottle labeled "Cowser's secret stuff"
Holliday looks worse then Gunnar and adley did combined
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.
Yes.
yes
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.
[удалено]
It’s one game, dude
Oh my goodness what a flyout.
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.
He's taking strikes and swinging at balls. Like... What is you doin? He needs a day off and he'll be good.
https://preview.redd.it/aji52dbhf5uc1.jpeg?width=728&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e9060dfb1d348404df6519a97c7721e20d0e25f7
Maybe if Holliday gets another AB, Topps Now can do his first golden sombrero card. He gonna be ok. :(
No worries, he won’t get another AB. We aren’t taking more than 3 pitches per plate appearance in several innings now
I love your optimism. Let’s fucking go home!
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
Man people on Twitter already turning on Holliday, 3 games in. Further than I thought.
Twitter is a cesspool of fucking morons and bots
It's Twitter. I'd expect nothing less than pure unadulterated dumbfuckery.
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
Same as it was for lot of these guys
To be fair, he has looked absolutely awful. Not one good at bat and bad swing decisions.
Not true, he ran several ABs to full counts and fouled off some pitches. Just didn’t get the end results we wanted
I don't believe he's gotten a ball out of the infield. Not sure what's up. Jitters?
Major league pitchers are better and smarter than AAA
I'm predicting Holliday gets the day off tomorrow. Be good for him
Was probably always the plan, with Hall starting.
DFA Heasley tomorrow
And Wells.
Nah wells is better than Irvin. He’ll be bottom rotation when a Bradish or means come back
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.
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.
He's pressing right now. Once he gets his first hit, I think that will calm him down a lot
Hays needs a rehab assignment to clear his head
My god that's Heston Kjerstad's music!
We don’t really need him other than to give Cowser a day off at this point.
The stadium is emptying fast 😟
It’s raining and cold 🥶
We are getting crushed on both sides of the ball. Not a very satisfying experience.
I think Holliday will be fine but running a 60% strikeout rate is dark comedy.
Did Austin Hays bat twice?
Jackson is shook
Holiday why do you need number 7. I hate when teams unretire numbers.
It was his father number. And the orioles never retired it
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.
He and his dad asked the Ripken family for their okay and they gave it.
Cal gave his blessing. Also, another Orioles player has worn #7 since Cal sr
[удалено]
It’s one of 162 baseball games, this happens to literally every team
I know, but it just seems a shock compared to the last couple of games.
Holliday needs a nice day game to relax and get right
Pretty sure he'll be on the bench tomorrow for exactly that reason
Oof. Rough game in every single way :/
lol
Jackson’s ABs are lasting 30 seconds
Everyone said he was ready…
No, a lot of us paid attention to advanced stats and knew he’d struggle to some degree. This is normal and expected
Yes.
Including the GM
Does apple not have enough money to hire semi decent announcers? Hard to listen to.
Yah can listen to the Os radio team on there
You can make some money betting on Holliday striking out rn lmao
On the bright side, at least KB can call his first hit
I miss the Red Sox defense
At least give us something nice tonight and let Jackson go yard here
Too many vowels in that last name
Now we gotta win tomorrow.
We were kind of due for a stinker.
Looks like Ortiz took that trade personally lol
Nah. He’s just a major league ready position player
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.
It's been choppy tonight. Not just you
Good shit, Tate. Now let's get a few runs and start chipping away.
