And again!

We didn’t want that lead anyway.

Terrible 0-2 pitch.

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

sweet

can't believe we're trying to win

hitting and shit

scoring runs with 2 outs?

the fuck is going on here

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

6 innings from a starter

moral victory (aqqy approved)

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Holy fuck, we sure boned that play up.

...and then a t-ball game broke out.

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

knock on wood this pitching is not half bad

i thought we were supposed be gunning for a 6+ era staff

[Elmer_Fudd 22247]

This just feels like we're going to get walked-off on.

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Adolis, bitches! 

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

woot!

wait how did we get someone to 2nd

[Radical Larry 28623]

That one isn't coming back. 

[ztejas 43454]

I'll come clean - I haven't watched an inning yet this year.

Just flipped this one on because it's on ESPN+ - my first reaction is "who the fuck are these guys?"

Can't promise how much more I'll tune in for. I'm just maybe not that good of a baseball fan yet.

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Goofy fucking stadium. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Easy game, never a doubt. 

[Hagbard Celine 10867]

that's a happy team

not getting sucked in just yet

show me 10 wins in a row

Glad to say I was wrong on this one.

[ztejas 43454]

Maybe we don't suck that hard? 

Nice close by Kennedy.

What was the result of the "foul" ball sticking to the roof? I fell asleep and missed. Saw the highlight this morning, but they didn't say how the call it. Foul, hit? just a do over pitch?

I think they called it a foul ball. Got stuck on a catwalk.

Rangers favored first time this year against the O's -117.

Starting pitcher for the O's tonight has a 11.73 ERA and 1.73 WHIP. 

Looks like we'll face Means Sunday, but last I looked a starter for tomorrow wasn't listed for Baltimore.

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Charlie fucking Culberson. 

 

[Knoxtnhorn 5976]

No way 2 weeks ago I'd believe we'd be ahead of Oakland and a half game behind Houston.  Gotta repel the genetics (@Jameslaw) and enjoy it while I can.

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Dahl dropped. 

[Post Oak 20217]

If we can just be interesting this year before the inevitable summer crash comes, I'll be happy. So far I'm happy.

 

There's just no room for any error with these guys

8 Ks through 4. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Welp, Balt can have this one. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Damn, that was almost a SICK fucking catch. 

[Elmer_Fudd 22247]

Had no idea Dillon Tate was on the O's.

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Well, their D is giving us a 9th inning sweat. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Another relatively quick game, but it was boring. 

[DougO 5250]

Down by three, bottom of the ninth, two outs, two on base...seems like pinch hitting for Trevino might have been a logical consideration.

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Our bench was Jonah Heim, Culberson (who would have rightfully hit for Tejeda), & Eli White. I know you hate him, but you’re not hitting for the dude off to a .350 start. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Quite the lineup today. Willie & Holt back, demotions not announced yet. One will be Tejeda, Leody may be the other. 
 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Nope, Leody gets to stay for now. Tejeda & Wes Benjamin down. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

My boy Nick got boned on that DP. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Fuck, we got bullpen’d. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Strong debut, Joely.

Wasn't able to watch or keep up with tonight's game.  Looks like I didn't miss anything, other than Dunning continues to impress.

I really like watching Dunning pitch. I still don't know how he doesn't get knocked all over the yard, but I guess that's part of the fun. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Quite the OF today. 

[Dr Fear 1268]

Since the rest of you are still sleeping from last night's activities, here is today's lineup with Gallo sitting.

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

I swear. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

5 Ks through 6 outs, strong. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Squeeze here. 

[shadow_operative2.0 15984]

Jesus fuck Leody, you can’t do anything right.
