baltimore orioles will be playing the second game of a three-game series against the texas rangers at oriel park at camden yards in baltimore maryland how you doing everybody it’s ro pal the bird watcher here people call me bw for short and there’s something in my right eyeball sorry uh why does this never happen when you’re watching tv somebody starts a show and immediately gets something in their eye it only happens to me oh these need to get clean too this is a mess uh welcome to live coverage of orioles baseball the orioles are going to try to extend their win streak at home which is now at four games after winning the opener last night uh one of the more complete victories of the season and bw’s humble opinion well how humble can he be if he’s referring to himself in third person what a schmuck but no it was great uh trevor rogers pitched lights out eight shutout innings the best start of any pitcher on the orioles staff this season and uh we got some uh good hitting uh up and down the lineup over uh double digit hits jackson holiday with the big earl weaver home run uh six runs and 11 hits in total i believe was the amount and uh solid defense as well folks i mean a complete game uh a great way to get the bitter taste of the sunday loss against the yankees out of our mouths and move on cuz we got to folks there’s still more than half a season of baseball left to go in fact we will be hitting the halfway mark uh tonight is game number 80 is that right or 79 we are just about there game number 79 tonight game number 80 tomorrow night and then the first game against tampa on friday is game 81 so friday after that game finishes that’s your halfway point of the season folks uh oh i got to update this uh text at the bottom of the screen uh tomorrow by the way uh the orio we got some things to talk about but let me go ahead and uh let me go in here for a sec it’s uh what time is tomorrow’s game same time tomorrow’s game is same time okay jacob deg grom so folks tomorrow uh i’m kind of jumping all over the place but since i’m about to type it into the text here might as well bring it up tomorrow it looks like tomyuki sagano will have his start bumped uh maybe for just a day uh not quite sure on that yet but uh it looks like brandon young who uh made a couple starts for us earlier in the season had an injury went through a rehab assignment brandon young is with the taxi squad uh tonight he’s at the stadium and is expected actually rock kabatokco if you go to his twitter according to rock kabatokco orioles beat writer brandon young is pitching tomorrow he’s not announced as starting tomorrow but he is announced as pitching tomorrow so i would assume we’re going to see one of a uh uh keegan aken or uh a blew it uh pitch uh the first inning inning plus and like we have done a couple of times last week uh it’s a strategy i like to call it the tiger technique uh where you know you go to your pen for the start of the game uh try to play matchups get a a few outs early in the ball game make it easier on the starter es especially if the starter isn’t really you know a highlevel starter you know if they’re on the lower tier they need a little bit of help this is a way to help so it looks like brandon young’s going to pitch tomorrow probably going to go with a guy out of the bullpen to start the game and uh sagano is going to get bumped up whether it’ll be to just one more game to friday uh against the rays or if they’re just going to skip his entire turn in the rotation we’ll have to wait and see i think everybody’s just going to get bumped up a day uh i do feel like the starting pitching has kind of been wavering a little bit lately uh we got a great start from rogers and morton going tonight he’s been pretty solid but zack efflin’s been looking pretty bad lately um whatchamacallit uh who am i forgetting a big name dean kramer’s been a little bit shaky but who am i forgetting effin kramer and um morton’s been okay who am i forgetting rogers is the fifth guy i don’t know folks i’m losing my mind whatever i think that’s what we’re doing forget it let’s move on cuz i’m lost already we’re 5 minutes away from first pitch and i’m already floundering over here okay uh on the mound tonight is charlie morton okay okay like okay um morton is up to what is it a 4-7 record now after starting like 0 and7 uh 5.64 64 era jacob latz is going to start this game tonight for the rangers and i think latz might be another one of these relievers that starts a game kind of guys let me look into this guy uh no last time out he he pitched like a starter would five and two/3 innings uh but he’s only made that one start he’s played in 16 games this season one start so he was a reliever that looks to be in the process of being converted into a starter uh nathan evaldi is on the disabled list by the way uh i think that’s worth mentioning not just because it might explain why this arm is now in the rotation but also that’s another arm that we were looking at guys hello another arm that we were looking at potentially bringing in uh as a free agent during the offseason native aldi well he’s injured now i mean folks it is a landmine it is like the worst carnival midway game of all time uh signing a starting pitcher in free agency in the modern game because you are playing a rigged game you’re not going to get that big teddy bear that you want somebody will somebody’s going to get lucky max freed might actually pitch for nine years healthy and be good that might happen so far year one is going okay other than that it seems to me it’s a it’s a veritable crapshoot folks uh first pitch is just a few minutes away i haven’t even gone over the lineups yet uh admittedly these i don’t why why do we have to start earlier than any other ball game in the entire league why do our home games have to be so freaking early have to get up so freaking early sorry and especially now that the weather is so buttass hot right i mean i’m not there but i i remember what it’s like when it’s like that uh can i can we at least wait till the sun goes down so i can get a little bit of a break from the heat make me sit out here with the sun still out here make me rush home from work to make it on time it’s start at seven the hell are you doing sorry me on my soap box again folks you’d be amazed how difficult it is to find a soap box in the modern age they’re not easy to find but once you get one it’s hard not to stand on one all right is this the ball game take me out to the ball game take me out with the crowd uh all right so it’s morton versus the lefty lats speaking of lats that’s the jeopardy answer to of all the injuries the orioles are dealing with which one has bothered us the most what is lats that is correct i’ll take oral injuries for 600 alex all right uh maverick hanley is on the concussion list because of this jerkoff’s stupid uh attempt at leapfrogging the catcher 15 ft in front of home plate who is jiz chasm that is correct all right i’ll take potent portables for 800 alex it is 97 degrees it feels like a hundred there is a dude with like a mountain dew cup eating a slushie that’s probably already more water than slush i mean look at the poor folks sitting on the first base side they are still sitting in the sun it’s hot it is hot i mean the bricks on the warehouse are melting folks here we go start of the ball game i’ll get to the lineup here in just a moment it is josh smith at the plate he’s playing first base tonight and he takes outside for ball one bw couldn’t even get to the lineups so i’m so slow i haven’t had a lucky yet outside again 2 and 0 the lineup for the uh rangers josh smith at the plate at first base tonight wyatt langford will bat second in left field cory seager will hit third at short stop two-0 pitch from morton his line fouled down the right field corner two balls one strike marcus simeon will be the cleanup hitter at second base adoleis garcia will dh and bat fifth evan carter gets a start in center field hitting sixth josh young bats seventh at third base alejandro osuno in right field batting eighth and kyle hagashi the catcher batting ninth that is ball three outside to josh smith three and one the count 284 average seven homers 21 rbi for smith top of the zone ball four morton didn’t walk anybody in his last start walks the first guy he sees here that last pitch a fast ball just an inch or two high smith is on base called strike to wyatt langford 237 the average defensively for the orioles gary sanchez behind the plate at first base kobe mayo holiday at second aras at third gunnar at short carlson in left mullins’s in center and lauriano in right field as this curve ball from efflin is off the plate by a foot foot and a half one-1 pitch hit in the air to right lauraniano in the sunshine makes the catch the orioles lineup has holiday leading off lauraniano second gunnar third sanchez cleanup aras fifth o’harn dhing and batting sixth mayo seventh mullins eighth and carlson number nine orioles birdwater i gotta try that channel out i’ve been i’ve been meaning to watch a little bit of orioles bird water how you doing there birdland i’m just i know i know i know it’s just a i’m just having fun man here’s a popup that will hit the screen on the third base side aras gave it a look it’s out of play cory seager at the plate now with an 01 count after that foul ball seager his average is down 234 this guy’s been a twotime world series mvp fouls a pitch away got a few other trophies in his cabinet rookie of the year back in 2016 some silver slugger awards in there very good hitting shortstop seager 02 pitch is fouled at the plate still 0 and2 but seager and simeon the guy on deck two veterans in the middle of this ranger infield very big factor in winning the world series a couple of years back both of them having uh down years offensively swing and a miss that curveball from morton lots of movement and yes sir ree bob sit down seager right well y’all come back now you hear two down with a runner at first base and here’s simeon now goes after the first pitch fouls it behind the plate simeon’s batting just 222 but he still has more rbi than gunnar does why does gunner have so little rbi why we need to get him some rbi’s tonight folks a cutter that breaks hard off the plate it’s a one-on-one on simeon smith still at first base after a leadoff walk with two down a 1-1 count on simeon top of the first we got a foul ball two strikes morton or simeon is 8 for 24 lifetime off of morton and that pitch is low that just tells you how long these two players have been around simeon and morton if uh i’m right haven’t played in the same league until now morton’s basically been a national leager simeon an american leager simeon played with the a’s before texas morton before the braves uh pitched a long time with the pirates so all of these at bats have been in interleague matchups over the years i think uh two- two pitch to simeon is high full count with two down so the runner at first will get a head start payoff pitch to simeon that one’s reached for it’s serve it’s uh served it’s popped up to left carlson moves a little bit to his right makes the catch how do i describe it folks it was a long reach to make contact for the batter so couldn’t get a whole lot on on the ball so a lazy ball to left nice and easy morton works around a leadoff walk and got a strike out along the way okay we go to the bottom of the first it’s uh the rangers nothing in the orioles coming up well george according to tony manscolino uh jackson holiday is going to be hitting lead off for the next five years so there you go folks you’ve heard my opinion on jackson holiday and uh whether or not he should be batting lead off in a major league lineup uh you know where i stand now we know where manscolino stands which is to say that don’t expect anybody else to hit lead off until at least 2030 yeah i was really happy to see that quote today really really happy [Laughter] uh folks gonna get myself situated here i got on a little bit late be right back okay thanks i better hurry up it’s holiday [Music] you don’t want to miss that first pitch folks here it is and there he goes second base brown out one away leadoff man out on one pitch for the next five years at least [Laughter] oh i did forget morton pitched for the astros thanks vegito mento ve thanks athletics i forgot about uh i should have i should have relied on athletics for my al west knowledge i forgot morton pitch for the for the astros uh so there you go there would be the bulk of the at bats a few years back right uh we got a 1-1 count on raone lauraniano raone just threw a rock at me uh foul tapped at the plate one and two on early mo charm city chad how you doing let bw get the nicotine and caffeine in and i’ll run down the list and say hi in just a moment one and two on lauriano hit on the ground to short seager over to first routine play two down let’s see if the scoreboard’s up and working here we good i think we good langford and left carter and center ouna and right young at third seager at short simeon at second smith at first higashioa behind the plate that is the rangers defense gunner his name’s gunner and he’s dating my mom slider for a called strike from latz 278 average for gunner eight homers 23 rbi folks we are two games away from the halfway point of the season 23 rbi what is going on what can we do for gunnar it’s difficult to play every day hit 278 at the top of the order and drive in so few runs it’s it’s actually hard to do uh 1-1 pitch hit on the ground is second simeon has it inning over orioles go one two three on eight pitches with jackson leading off and making the first out on one pitch i’m sorry i don’t like it i don’t like it i don’t like an eight pitch first inning i don’t like swinging at the first pitch and making an out and we’re sitting here why why why doesn’t gunner have any rbi gee i wish gunner had more rbi i mean put gunner back in leadoff if this is how it’s going to be because you’re not going to get many rbi hitting lead off are you at least you got a better guy with average who will take a pitch but no holiday you got to wait till 2031 folks i’m going to have my aarp card by the time they try somebody else but holiday why would manscolino say that why would you commit to that how’s that supposed to make somebody like i don’t know enrique bradfield jr feel he’s probably down you know on the farm going “all right i’m working my way up to the big club i’m just dreaming of the day i can hit lead off for the baltimore orioles with my speed and contact hitting skills i can’t wait well apparently bradfield sorry you will never have the opportunity manelino has already made up his mind that jackson holiday is such a good leadoff hitter there’s nobody could possibly do what he’s doing for the next half decade at least okay okay i mean we can’t get this team to commit to say anything we’re trying to just get an update on an injury nope sorry can’t help you oh but we can commit to holiday leading off for the next five years we can we can do that okay [Laughter] folks am i on crazy pills or am i ranting for a legitimate reason uh here’s a dol garcia 1 and0 the count curveball in there for a strike the count even up at one and one top of the second no score yeah is matt holiday basically giving the team an ultimatum jackson hits lead off or we’ll never ever extend here or some bs like that and now we have to sit here and uh you know massage uh the ego or whatever of a player sorry i am not down with that for anybody i don’t care if your name’s kyle ripken jr uh evan carter fouls a pitch back one out nobody on top of the second i’ll calm down i’ll calm down 01 pitch outside one and one carter is hitting .256 was not in the lineup last night carter went around on a curveball that was low and in count as a ball and two strikes like number six uh we’re up to more than that by now i would hope hit the like button folks curveball swung on and miss a nasty one from morton see you later carter well y’all come back now you hear welcome back mr carter oh that’s carter welcome back carter sorry uh here’s uh josh young two down nobody on there’s a sinker on the outside corner for a strike 239 for young seven homers 30 rbi he’s gotten more rbi than gunnar he’s hitting seventh popped up shallow left center field it’s going to dunk in there for a two out base hit two out single for young here comes osuna alejandro osuna this guy has not had a whole lot of playing time 147 average no homers one rbi and with a numbers like that why not throw ball one outside all right come on throw strikes i can’t wait to read everybody else’s comments on holiday because it looks like you guys are chirping i just haven’t had a chance to look i’ll check in with you guys here in the next half inning i promise i had to spend the first half inning enjoying a lucky and a little bit of caffeine one and0 the count on osuna and that one is lined foul down the right field line o that ball seemed to suspended in error for a few seconds before finally landing in foul side of the right field line one ball one strike two down runner at first in the top of the second with no score rangers and orioles game two one-1 pitch outside bw’s got spring rolls check on the runner that’s a close play mayo looks at the dugout like “do you want to check on this?” we got the phone we got the phone we say put on the headphones we say we want to yeah i mean i saw this with the naked eye going “wait a sec.” yes he got him i can see the uniform i can see the wrinkle the glove puts on that uniform before that hand touches the bag he’s out he is out get him out of here get him out of here get him out of here all right hey maybe now’s a good time to check in with folks we got a challenge going on uh andrea became a magic member today thank you andrea jc is here edward royal peeta when did you become royal you were just peeta yesterday when did you become uh royalty uh congratulations for your newfound uh uh status i guess uh patrick is here vegrammentoto jj how you doing buddy love the button love the like button folks uh anthony santandere long time no see dingleberry hold on the runner is out the runner is out sorry buddy go back to your bench sir [Laughter] bruce bochi looks lost all right that’s the end of the inning the orioles win the challenge morton picks off smith at first or who was it not smith who did he pick off uh young he picked off young uh let’s see uh dingleberry frederick is here jinxy the cat slater baxter george carl hutchkins tony uh 99 over 22 i’m doing okay how about you didn’t mean to rhyme but i do it all the time derek is here george michael uh deshawn am i missing somebody ab normal how you doing ab william is here joel so many folks everybody’s hit the like button right we got 118 people here right now 45 likes come on we’re in the middle of a break we’ve got eight more innings seven and a half innings to go what is it i don’t know hit that thumbs up please it is vitally important uh brea is here ronnie hood erica erica long time no see i wonder if matt holidayiday would have interest in being a coach i think he’s already kind of pulling some strings right now america i think he’s an unpaid influencer on this orioles team right now uh daniel barry is here lwood lwood buddy let me guess dry white toast is that what you’d like i got you elwood dry white toast coming up birdlands here folks i haven’t been able to scroll all the way through mg first pitch to sanchez is a curveball up and away for ball one release the kraken uh tom deetsz or diets deetsz i think i got everybody if i didn’t get you i’m sorry thomas brock just saying hello uh there’s a change up way off the plate two and one on sanchez folks we’re in the bottom of the second inning scoreless orioles went very quietly in the first sanchez is already about to see pitch number four which is an improvement swinging a miss it’s two and two the two- two pitch is fouled back all right so gary sanchez getting close to seeing as many pitches in his at bat as the offense saw in the entire first inning another foul ball and we are getting there two and two on sanchez 208 the batting average lat kicks and deals the 22 a slider hits softly foul and this will be as long at bat as the previous inning was it’s we’re right on we’re right there so thank you gary for making lats work oh no don’t send ethan to the rockies no don’t send him there two- two pitch is low for ball three how about this at bat from s make sanchez the leadoff man i mean payoff pitch swung on and missed sanchez strikes out but he made lats work so you know what that’s a much better out than any out made in the first inning kevin brown just mentioned it eight pitches for lats in the first and nine pitches right there to sanchez here’s raone aras kevin brown listen to bw i’ll help you out when you need it i have a brother inside 2 and 0 ara sitting 255 holy cow ramon is hitting 520 when ahead in the count swing away my friend it’s 2 and 0 bow back two and one all right well don’t don’t fall behind hurry up and put it in the play while while you’re ahead that’s ridiculous 520 batting average when ahead in the count 2-1 pitch hit on the ground well that average just went down a little bit ground ball to shortstop seager with the play two down and raone now batting maybe 505 uh went ahead in the account not sure i’ve ever seen a little baseball player get ejected from a game a little like a little league what do you mean a little like like that st louis browns uh little guy that came in as a part of a bill vex stunt uh here’s ryan o’harn fights on it’s turn and burn two down nobody on 01 pitch off the plate one ball one strike have ever seen a little league ball player get ejected from a game uh not uh not personally not in not in person here’s a line drive on a bounce to second base simeon has it over to first and this inning is over thank you gary sanchez 24 pitches in two innings for lats nine of them to gary the other 15 got the other five outs so gary sees nine pitches the rest of the lineup right now averaging seeing three um now yeah so but to be fair i haven’t attended many little league games in my life the most little league action i saw was when i was playing and i would love to have an injection story for my little league playing days but i don’t have one i have one for my freshman year of high school but not uh little league not that i recall i don’t know at that age i was probably picking my nose didn’t even understand when somebody got thrown out who knows folks hey rob how you doing it’s not a holiday issue it’s an orioles issue they’ve had issues with making a pitcher work in the first inning for years now the orioles have this jump on first pitch mentality tom you might be right but you know i’m just going with what i’m seeing what i’ve been watching here for a couple of years that may be true but no one can be counted on the swing of the first pitch as much as jackson holl i mean he’s just an extreme case if that’s what they want no wonder they love it because again he’s doing it more than anybody i’ve ever seen so if that’s what they want that’s what they’ve got i don’t like it again just in case i feel like i have to say this every time the holiday subject comes up because i don’t know who might be listening to me talk for the first time and if if you are you might be under the impression that i have a problem with jackson holiday i don’t have a problem with the guy think he’s going to be a great player for us and help us out in the field at the plate on the bases although he needs help there let’s be honest uh he needs some work knowing how to take leads off a bag and when to steal and all that stuff we got an 02 count right now popped up by osuna he was at the plate in the second inning when uh josh young got picked off to win the inning he now pops up to shallow center field for the first out in the top of the third so charlie morton one hit and one walk so far the walk led off the ball game the hit erased on a pickoff otherwise looking pretty good kyle hagashio takes a curveball in there for a strike betting ninth tonight wasn’t he batting like fifth last night how’d he go from fifth to ninth i guess he’s really good against lefties uh one and one the count on hagashi hitting 225 one homer 16 rbi off the plate the count is two and one tom i agree i think uh jordan westber among the players right now uh when he’s fit is the best uh has the best characteristics of a leadoff hitter two and two on hagashi now am i saying is westber a better offensive player than holiday no but i’m not even trying to make the comparison it’s simply about a particular job that requires you know particular set of skills i sound like liam niss from taken now uh payoff pitch to hagashi swung on and bounced off the mound to holiday at second base a kind bounce off of the pitching mound that could have gone anywhere right to jackson for the second out morton’s face just one batter over the minimum and here is josh schmidt who walked his first time up up now with two down nobody on i know michael i’ve been seeing the trailers now for about two months curve ball in there for a strike i’m not going to see that garbage it’s just another cash grab milking uh existing property that people have a fond memory of and trying to exploit people uh by depending on them to reach in their pocket and give out some money just to relive a fond memory and what do they get back just a a just a bad like attempt at recreating uh magic that you’re not going to do it’s not happening okay folks two and two to the count will there be some laughs in this liam niss naked gun movie i’m sure i would hope so because movies like that have about 300 jokes i would hope five of them land uh smith fouls a ball away the count two and two with two down nobody on morton’s on 44 pitches uh 22 he swung at a pitch that might have hit him you’re telling me he didn’t go you’re telling me he didn’t swing so it’s a hit batter on a check swing third base some says he didn’t go i think he went curve ball in got him on the thigh folks this better not turn into anything all right it won’t i don’t think is it in play third base side no okay i spoke too soon a foul ball here wyatt langford at the plate now 0 and one the count runner at first and two down there you go tom i mean it’s it’s so weird how what was once like you know a golden rule has now suddenly become obsolete the the idea of what a leadoff hitter’s role is see pitches get on base work the count let the other guys see what the pitcher got and then you know you want some speed you want a good you want one of the better on base percentages on the team and you want some speed this is a liner out to left field right in the path of carlson who makes the catch the inning is over charlie morton three innings of no run baseball we head now to the bottom of the third scoreless in baltimore so yeah i don’t i don’t get it i understand that baseball like most sports ever evolving you can’t just set it and forget it you got to understand when times are changing and and trends start to happen and this and that but i’m telling you right now folks the game of baseball some things are just you just know you just know them to always be true they they are universally true forever okay and for for me one of them is what makes uh a leadoff hitter like you know what what are the characteristics that best make for a leadoff hitter i feel like that hasn’t changed i don’t think that’s changed what has changed and i’m not necessarily opposed to it is that it used to always be your best hitter hit third period you play your best hitter third because you know he’s coming up in the first inning and it’s the best chance at that hitter coming up with people on base to drive in but now you see a lot of best hitters hitting second they want them a little bit higher up in the order they basically want that you know that juicy part of the lineup to start faster and i’m not necessarily opposed to that especially if you have a very heavy uh a very uh you know if you if you got a really good lineup you can definitely do that hey folks kobe mayo is coming up let’s get it all on there just spread it out kobe mayo how about a first major league home run or pop out on one pitch to shallow right field one of those two things just happened folks i’ll give you a chance to guess which in the meantime i’ll be right back by the way here’s a hint there’s one down said mullins looks at a pitch that’s right in there i tell you when we take a first pitch it’s always right down the middle we can’t win 0 and one on said fouls the next one back it’s 0 and2 tom we saw a bunt last night from cowser and it was like it’s like haley’s comet when will we see the next successful bunt like that probably not this year maybe sometime next year maybe 2027 we’ll just have to wait and see 0 and2 on mullins just off the plate outside a bird has watched me william in fact some people here know the story but the eve of the start of this channel involved a bird watching me pitch outside the mullins the count is two and two folks i promise i’m not going to embellish and i will try to keep the story short but uh the eve before opening day and doing my first stream on this channel last year mullins a liner but right to first base caught by smith two down so i’ve got my small apartment here but it’s got a nice balcony i like to sit out there uh in the mornings and in the evenings watching the sunrise the sunset the the the neighborhood activity going on below and uh we’ve got a lot of crazy birds that live out here and the evening before first pitch popped up from carlson and he is retired 30 pitches through three innings you take sanchez’s at battle away that is 21 pitches to eight guys i might have to wait on telling you the rest of that story 21 pitches to eight guys from some nobody left-hander can we make them work are we in a hurry jeez louise do we even need a pitch clock if this is the way we play baseball trying to play a 45minute game here every time we face a mediocre pitcher this is how our offense looks i’m sick of it man take a pitch i was trying to tell an inspirational story about the advent of this channel and how i was you know inspired to to do this and i’m just sitting here i can’t even i can’t even 30 pitches 10 per inning only helped out because of sanchez it’s like the orioles think “oh well we’re we’re facing like kind of a mediocre pitcher so let’s really jump on him.” no you do the opposite you go “okay this guy probably has some command issues there’s a reason why we don’t know who the hell this guy is he’s not that good let him hurt himself a little bit i just i don’t get it folks it’s not like i don’t ever want to see somebody swing at a first pitch or you know make out after a couple of pitches it happens but it’s like that’s our philosophy it’s not a byproduct of a healthy offense it’s our philosophy we want this for some reason uh oneonone the count on seager and that pitch looked to catch the inside corner we don’t get the call sanchez had to move the target over to c catch it and that probably cost us that strike two and one curveball fouled off two and two seager is 0 for one i mean i’m seeing other people talk i mean in general am i am i talking like an idiot over here or am i making any sense i don’t i don’t need to be coddled or whatever i’m not looking for i’m just want i don’t know how where where where’s my take in all this uh two and two the count on seagar outside full count sorry forgot about the scoreboard there you go simeon waiting on deck seager leading off the top of the fourth no score payoff pitch is low for ball four second walk from morton i mean am i wrong tom in saying that how you know how many times have we faced a pitcher this year you look at their their line for the season and are like “oh well this guy’s not good.” erra well over five he’s giving up way more hits than innings pitched he’s walking like four and a half per nine oh we got this guy and then that guy winds up pitching his best game of the season against us how many times i’d say at least 15 freaking times i’m sorry i shouldn’t be this upset swinging a miss on simeon the count is one and two and i’m sitting here yelling we’re in a scoreless ball game last night was fantastic everything was working i should be in a better mood but i’m sitting here chirping about holiday i’m chirping about the offense in general here’s a ground ball in the hole through to left field for a base hit a seeing eye single for simeon don’t you love that alliteration folks and the orioles have themselves in some danger here two on and nobody out first and second for the rangers aras laid out for that just out of reach all right work to do and a dangerous batter you don’t want this guy to go deep right now curveball fouled away good first pitch from morton adoleis garcia is 0 for one hey kevin could you not mention how many home runs this dude’s been hitting over his career right now is this the best time to mention that uh that is upstairs one ball one strike 61 pitches now for morton one ball one strike the pitch popped up we love it we love it holiday backing onto the outfield grass for the first out runners can’t go anywhere lovely fernando tatis is san diego’s leadoff man in beginning he ambushed a bunch of pitchers for homers he came down earth yeah look i mean if you want to you know do the ambush as a leadoff hitter if like if you just kind of the thing is you have to establish that that’s not what you do everybody knows jackson swing that the first pitch it’s no surprise so why would any pitcher it’s only a pitcher making a mistake for jackson to be able to even do anything with a first pitch i would never give him a first pitch to hit because of his reputation right so yeah if if he went back to being a more traditional hitter and took some pitches then when you ambush it’s actually an ambush a pitcher might throw one over on a first pitch to get a cheap first strike and you pounce on it but you can’t just go up there set it and forget it and do it every at bat it’s not going to over time lead to something good i’m i’m i i am am i wrong here i don’t know maybe i am wrong he’s he’s a 20-year-old millionaire every and he’s a great hitter i guess uh i’m just some schmuck with a scraggly beard sitting in a tiny apartment what the hell do i know uh one and two on evan carter first and second for the rangers one away that ball’s hit through the hole on the right side and here comes seager around third the throw home is there and the ball gets out of sanchez’s glove and that allows the runners to move up carter to second unbelievable sanchez hold that ball what are you doing man we had him nailed lauriano why does anybody run on this guy i don’t know catch the ball gary one- nothing rangers with second and third and one out infield is in josh young at the plate he had a base hit his first time up this is hit on the ground to short gunner fires home but he fires off line the run will score sanchez has to dive to the first base side to catch it what a waste embarrassing by the way sanchez dropped that one too even though it wouldn’t have mattered mr butter fingers over there hello you’re you’re literally a catcher that is your name you catch catch the ball holy [ __ ] i’ll be right back why am i so upset ground ball foul on the first base side by osuna mayo fields it in foul ground it’s zone and one first and third with one out two nothing rangers bun attempt by osuna but it goes foul it’s 0 and2 o2 pitch first a snap throw to first by morton that’s a pretty good move to first for a right-hander kind of scary to watch if i tried to throw the ball like that that ball is going down the right field line curveball tries to catch the bottom outside corner and according to the robo ump he did but morton does not get the call it’s one ball two strikes 72 pitches for morton that fast ball is riding up high two and two two- two pitch is lined in center field right at mullins that’ll score a run it’ll be a sack fly a runner from third can score easily three nothing rangers two down with a runner at first man palmer’s talking about lauraniano normally makes better throws and there he didn’t i mean first of all who else is getting the ball there in time to get the runner like lauraniano yeah it was on the first base side but if sanchez catches it and turns that’s still a better chance than anybody else throwing from right field i’m sorry so now i’m disagreeing with jim palmer what what what are we getting to here folks why am i so why am i just looking for a fight i feel like i’m looking for a fight one and one on hagashi pitch off the plate two and one i’m not a fighter i’m a lover if a fight comes at me i deal with it but i don’t go looking for him what’s wrong with me three in one on hagashio interesting thought trevor thank you for the compliment on my actual thumbnails though i never really took a good long look at them they are they are quite handsome it’s weird though the rest of my fingers are dreadful but the thumb the thumbnail it’s glorious it’s exquisite full count on hagashi two down runner at first will be off with the pitch and it’s fouled away i’ll do it again spectacular my thumbnail is real and it’s spectacular does anybody understand that comment by the way hagashi with a highfly ball to left carlson is going to watch it drop just about a foot into foul territory i don’t know if carlson was running at full speed there to try to get to that ball seemed like he was kind of not running as hard as he could maybe i am just too critical i don’t know what’s going on i got critical itis keegan aken is up and throwing in the orio bullpen this ball’s hit to left by hagashi this one is trouble and it’s going to bounce off the wall and into the splash zone for a ground roll double that’ll drive in a run no it won’t drive in a run will it drive it what’s the score it’s second and third two out okay what where are we folks i’m living in a fever dream second and third two down okay so it’s still three nothing i thought i saw somebody coming around third okay uh here is smith up for the third time fouled at the plate one ball one strike smith doesn’t have an official atbat yet tonight he’s walked and been hit by a pitch i just got tricked by what i thought i saw which was a runner coming around third base i mean i get it ground rule double everybody goes up two bags from where they started but i admittedly couldn’t remember if we had a runner at second or not or if he was at first and when i saw him rounding third i’m like “all right he’s scoring.” but maybe he wasn’t rounding third maybe i was just looking at something completely different i don’t know folks all i know is we got to get strike three it’s a one-two pitch fouled at the plate and smith fouls it off himself going to be given a chance to shake it off 38 pitches in the inning for morton he’s up to 86 on the day we’re only in the fourth this is not going to plan folks curve ball fouled away boy it’s amazing how a game can be decided when you can make a pitcher work really hard and knock him out early on pitch count because morton look he’s given up three runs if he gets this final out he could conceivably still get a quality start but the problem is he won’t get through six because of a pitch count because you know you’re making them work i don’t know seems to be a pretty good strategy make a pitcher work i don’t know fouled again at the plate my goodness next pitch will be number 90 on the evening seven pitch at bat so far here six of the seven pitches have been fouled away helmet comes off of smith as he fouls another pitch off that’s a nice head of hair you got there mr smith seven straight foul balls morton’s got to be wondering what the hell do i have to do still only one ball on the batter here’s a ground ball to holiday and that’ll end the inning jesus christ 91 pitches through four innings for morton and this inning was not pretty three run score for the rangers as we now go to the bottom of the fourth the orioles are still looking for their first hit where is the tylenol i apologize for baltimore i apologize for baltimore what was that it was bad it it had nothing no fire no energy no nothing i apologize for baltimore i apologize for baltimore what was that it was bad it it had nothing no fire no energy no nothing i apologize for baltimore [Music] [Music] [Music] good morning [Applause] good evening good evening hi everybody bw hanging out here at the yard i know it looks like night it’s still not this dark out yet it’s a night game but uh you know we start night games here in the middle of the freaking afternoon jackson holiday is gonna lead off [Laughter] come on buddy [Music] all right hey we took a pitch and it was a strike and it was the right decision because that was a tough front door slider from latz second pitch fouled back it’s 0 and2 i’m very testy tonight i don’t know what it is right now my leg i got i got restless leg syndrome you can’t see it but i am i don’t know what it is i i kind of drank like a double double shot of coffee that might not have helped uh pitch high to holiday one ball two strikes lats threw 30 pitches to get through three innings 91 pitches for morton to get through four that’s just ridiculous the discrepancy going on here two and two now on holiday that bubble tea got me yeah too many bubbles grounded foul all right holiday having an extended atbat and i like to see it the thing is folks if you’re a good major league hitter you can still hit with two strikes on you you can still hit with a count like two and two foul back we’ll do it again okay okay jackson folks melanie newman is somewhere out here what a job she has haven’t heard word one from her this game’s nearly half over two- two pitch again is rolled over foul on the first base side all right jackson keep on keeping on seven pitch at bats so far 22 again and that is ball three outside folks bw is starting to crack a smile [Music] what did i miss george what did i miss off the plate ball four bw has got a full raging heart on right now hey look at that i’m walking here i’m walking here i missed melanie newman all right well consider myself lucky i guess [Laughter] all right here’s lauraniano and he took a bad cut at a change up oh and one on lauriano raone just threw a rock at me the 01 to lauriano inside with a fast ball lauraniano is the sixth best ops uh for an outfielder in the american league judge buckton riley green trent gisham and willie castro of the twins check swing on a pitch low he did not go two balls one strike so lauriano has proven to be uh a very good signing i would say 5 million for the production you’re getting and that arm in the outfield as well 2-1 pitch is in there lauraniano did not take the bat off his shoulders that was a fast ball straight in there for strike two holiday at first nobody out orioles are trying to respond after giving up three runs in the top half of the inning pitch fouled back and another extended at bat all right folks first three innings for this offense was a disaster first time through the order trying to try a new way of things here we got a 22 count check on holiday he’s back in with a head first slide lats from the belt and another pickoff attempt and holiday just gets back boy we had an angle on that pickoff move where we could see jackson respond to the throw and i got to tell you jackson he’s got to work on it he has some sort of a hesitation holiday’s dancing here’s a ground ball to short that’s a tailor made double play ball folks and that will kill the rally right there [Music] well if anyone’s wondering why gunnar henderson is so short in the rbi department despite batting third and with a pretty good average well we’ve got another example why the bases are now empty two down and he has an 01 count his name’s gunnar and he’s dating my mom line drive right at simeon he makes the catch gunner robbed of a hit he hit the crap out of it and there goes another inning the orioles still are hitless through four against latz he missed six weeks bw i don’t know what that means who missed six weeks what happened i don’t know gunner missed six weeks he missed six games derek what are you talking about six weeks he was back for the second week of the season he missed two series what are you talking about six weeks take a look at the number at bats he has compared to everybody else it’s a full complement of at bats doesn’t explain the rbi numbers yeah yeah happy poly logies oh boy oh boy yeah you’re fine i know what you meant derek it’s fine it’s fine there was nothing abrasive about your comment as long as you’re not abrasive fine folks we got a day off coming up on thursday and another one next thursday i’ll be looking forward to those charlie morton is going to start the fifth inning how do i feel about it i don’t know aken was up getting loose in the previous inning morton had to throw over 40 pitches in the previous inning and ball one here is way outside the lenford next pitch is line hard but foul one and one the count chase burns has struck out seven in three innings against the yankees all right i like it this live stream makes me feel like mr bean when he’s at the movie theater watching nightmare on elm street hey we’ve all been there pitch off the plate it’s two and one on langford check swing he went around don’t tell me he didn’t wow well not even an appeal oh okay two and two i guess a strike was called somewhere 2-2 that one is hit hard a pitch up and in on the batter they turned on it but uh it’s a foul morton’s on 96 pitches cry cry cry 96 pitches called strike three at the bottom of the zone yo give morton this much man this dude is in his 40s it’s 100 freaking degrees outside uh he had to throw over 40 freaking pitches in the previous inning and he’s still able to come out here and punch a guy out not too shabby here is corey seager he looks at ball one that one’s hitting the left center it’s going to be trouble but mullins has the speed to track it down in the gap said knows what to do said covers the ground if he can get to it he’s going to take it it wasn’t even all that big of a play folks it wasn’t even all that big of a play for said all right 99 pitches from morton here’s number 100 and it’s a ground ball that should end the inning aras with a throw off balance in time 100 pitches charlie morton a hero inning a hero inning get this guy’s some freaking offense please he is pitching with swamp ass i had to steal that one from you joel there’s an old man out there pitching with swamp ass and do you know how difficult it is to wear depended undergarments and have swamp ass and still be able to pitch effectively he’s in the dugout right now and he passed up the gatorade for a bottle of insure this old man out there getting it done one bad inning [Laughter] oh yeah i know if sanchez couldn’t if he could handle the damn ball tom don’t get me started i almost felt happy for a sec time for a new brand uhoh rachel rachel’s rolling out we’re rebranding folks hold on no more gunner adley and cowser jerking each other off with legos well that that would chafe ouch folks you know what kind of damage you would do to yourself jerking yourself off with a lego i i do not recommend that no wonder we’re having problems no wonder everybody’s injured uh no more celebrations over me well can i i want to be able to i just came up with the chadwick trump dance yesterday am i allowed uh what else is going on the magic of morton mania i don’t think morton mania is trending right now but uh gary sanchez looks at a pitch up and away for ball one next pitch out outside two and 0 all right offense hello wakey wakey oh look morton is drinking something he’s drinking scissorp morton is drinking purple drink nobody can get this guy is some sunny d he can only have the purple stuff two and one on sanchez upstairs three and one tom was that not scissorp that was some jammarcus russell scissor charlie’s drinking it’s got to have some of those old man vitamins in them right that’s called a strike sanchez with about as unanimated a reaction to that pitch as you can have sanchez wake up buddy there’s a major league baseball game going on and you’re at the plate full count nobody out bottom of the fifth payoff pitch foul back all right first time up sanchez made latz throw nine pitches he’s already made him throw six in this atbat another payoff curve ball outside i’m sorry that was a slider oh that was an ugly looking slider that is ball four folks we got to lead off walk [Music] i’m walking here i’m walking here he’s old and depressed let him get his drugs no i’m i agree rachel i’m old and depressed too and the last thing i want is anybody getting in the way of me and my drugs here’s ramona off the plate outside ball one folks we are taking pitches it’s so effective it has made the rangers have a meeting on the mound and hagashi took about two minutes to walk up to the pitcher take your time you jerk take your time i’m have diablo sandwich make it fast i’m in a goddamn hurry take your time take your time folks once again ramona reas i’m not sure what the precise average is right now but ramona ras is hitting somewhere at or above 500 when ahead in the count he’s ahead right now one-0 pitch make it 2 and 0 folks you know what screw this [Music] that is called a strike the count is two and one and the hat says “i want in i want in i’ve seen enough two-1 raone that is inside three and one folks three and one that was a close pitch [Music] the 3-1 to aras bow back full count latz is on 60 pitches which is finally about where he should be nobody out in the fifth so basically 60 pitches for four innings of work that’s 15 per that is better now it’s time to start getting some hits we need our first hit of the ball game folks payoff pitch to aras he’s swung at ball four my goodness he strikes out that was neck high and he went after it ryan o’harn folks turn and burn lights on let’s turn and burn first pitch has fouled away that pitch was in on him now hearn has the third best batting average in the league on the first pitch so if anybody’s got uh freedom to go after the first pitch by all means mr o’harn go right ahead next pitch is off the plate it’s one ball one strike runner at first one out orioles looking for their first hit swing and a miss one and two still sunshine on the warehouse this game’s only been on for a couple of hours now here’s a liner foul oh i thought that might have snuck inside the third baseline but not to be oh little boy gets a free foul ball there one and two on o’harn pitch swing and a miss o’harn strikes out two away catcher threw down a first check that runner nothing going on there o’harn is 0 for two kobe mayo my goodness come on kobe show the rest of the team how it’s done first pitch upstairs and with a guy as big as mayo you got to work to throw a pitch high my goodness this dude is just built too big to not succeed come on 10 low and away two and0 on mayo uh-oh rachel must have just stepped on one of those legos she was talking about [Music] rachel stop with the legos two and 0 oh you didn’t have to erase that froggy that was that didn’t have to be erased that was just she meant to write back like her back hurts my back was a keystroke error it’s fine it’s fine whatever i don’t know i don’t know how to make everybody happy yeah just as a point of order uh try to keep the cursing down i’ve already dropped the four-letter word i said the sword swing a miss by mayo it’s two and two so uh folks if you’re in the chat and you get a comment removed don’t take it personally uh the mods are doing their best work to keep the chat nice and charming uh i i supply sort of the ground rules they’re doing their best to follow mayo strikes out inning is over so sometimes i’ll say one thing and then i wind up doing something where i look like a hypocrite to my mods and i don’t want them to feel that way froggy michael janet rob uh they all do a great job with the uh with the modding of the chat but anyway uh this sitting is over mayo strikes out and uh i’m feeling pretty uh what’s this about youtube there’s a problem with youtube that more than one person is experiencing tonight hey folks uh do you mind uh we got a break in the action here and we are still pretty low on the like count all things considered uh we’ve set a standard here we like to get to triple digits we’ve got 130 plus people watching right now uh in the middle of a commercial break so please take just a moment of your time just a moment like if you look up the word moment it is this is the definition of a moment tap the thumbs up whoops great time for a belch tap the thumbs up please let’s get the likes up to 100 i’ve got some gas apparently uh and uh yeah i appreciate it thanks thanks everybody yeah it’s only his second start patrick but uh let’s be honest it will probably turn out to be his best it’ll probably turn out to be his best because that’s what we do we play down to bad pitching i shouldn’t say bad i mean you know whatever he’s a major league pitcher uh we play down to you know the back end of other teams rotations i guess andrew kitridge is on to relieve charlie morton we move to the sixth inning 14th appearance for kitridge and folks i got to tell you my beard if i take the glasses off if i if i get a proper jersey and hat me and kitridge we’re starting to look like uh twins over here by the way i think that’s why janet hasn’t been around as much lately because this beard is taking away the dimples and we all know that’s why janet likes to be here sorry janet i’ll reveal the dimples again eventually adoleis garcia takes a strike from kitridge after ball one one and one on garcia leading off the top of the sixth the one-1 pitch low we let him off the hook dennis green has joined us in the chat folks pop way high in the air uh that’s going to make the rain come down carlson with a catch in left field for the first out in the top of the sixth that’s true and i think uh michael had pointed that out earlier i should have uh i should have given him credit yeah not only do we make the opposing team’s worst pitchers have their best outings we make their number nine hitters have their best games of the year if not career how many times have we done that it is really frustrating here is evan carter with an 01 count takes low one ball one strike playoffs what are you talking about michael that pitch is low two and one on carter i just i i wish more coaches and managers would be like jim moira with that playoffs press conference that was so real that’s what’s so great about that clip that’s why that clip is so super enjoyed for so many years he felt it like you’re talking about play playoffs playoffs [Laughter] two and two on carter swing and a miss kitridge gets a chase on a slider in the dirt two down well y’all come back now you hear well y’all come back now you hear that ball had one where one place to go straight down josh young one for two first pitch swinging base hit into left field two hits on the night for young that ball got in on the hands and he’s still able to turn on it osuna alejandro osuna 0 for one with a sacrifice fly up there with two down and a runner at first called a strike at the bottom of the zone for kitridge 0 and one keegan aken is up again and i would assume if you’re getting up a second time we’re going to see you in the next inning or maybe even in this one if uh kitridge doesn’t get ouna out although asuna is a left-hander i guess you got leadoff hitter josh smith a lefty and then seager that is a base hit in the right field for osuna so that’ll get the number nine hitter up to the plate and again it looks like aken is getting loose to face the top of the order when the lineup flips that’s only one batter away now two on two out kitridge will get a visit from sanchez as higashioa waits his turn at home plate joe joe tory what’s what century are we in yes if if it was still 1999 yeah bring in joe tory why so many ex yankees why do they all have to be yankees [Laughter] jeez that’s my those are the options do you think someone like an old yankee manager an old yankee manager an old yankee player or an old yankee manager would be a good manager tony larusa hey folks how about tommy lorta come on let’s give him a chance folks sparky anderson anybody there’s a call strike hey how about trevor bower for manager why not make everybody happy pitch off the plate two and one on hagashi 2-1 that’s low hagashi lays off three and one the count name other managers who have had william that’s the question you’ve named four people and you’re telling me can i name any other person who has ever successfully managed a major league baseball team besides those four people that’s the question that’s that’s the task i’m assigned okay let me let me try to rack my brain here hold on i’m going to try to pull a name of a manager that has had success in the history of major league baseball not named joe tory joe gerardi dom maddingley or buck shoalter hold on hold on no who’s available but you’re mentioning joe tori he’s not available [Laughter] if you’re going to throw joe tory in there you’re basically giving me uh cart blanch to name any manager who has ever managed anything ever ever right provided that they’re alive and even that is still in question i’m just having fun with you i’m just having fun i’m sorry i’m sorry i’m sorry i’m just trying to make a joke about the fact that my options are all all have yankee connections like does it have to be that way that’s my only real point um billy ripken why not i don’t know folks but he is alive okay all right hold on bw is going to call joe tori hold on hey joe hey it’s bw here how you been man i know long time no see yeah so anyway i know you haven’t been uh managing major league baseball now for i don’t know over a decade or so uh and with the legacy you’ve had with the yankees there really is no reason to return at this stage of your life but i was just wondering you know you know just for craps and giggles would you be interested in managing the orioles starting today joe you don’t have to you don’t have to laugh at me joe joe joe just listen to me no no no you listen to me joe all right i got to go i got to call a game god this guy sorry uh first pitch to josh smith is fouled away folks bases loaded two out keegan aken in the ball game and yeah we got to get this out line drive up the middle but right to gunner what are you doing he’s thought about stepping on second now he’ll throw to first in time and the inning is over okay exhale akin comes in to get the final out kitridge got him into trouble akin bails him out bases are left loaded we go to the bottom of the six still hitless this is the second game in how many days where we’ve been hitless going into this late in the ball game what what was that other game my memory stinks but then we rallied late whatever that other game i’m thinking of was we went forever without a hit and then we had a huge like eighth inning i want to say uh yeah let’s get joe gibbs in here let’s get joe gibbs hey folks we’re still short of 100 likes there’s no reason for this to be the case the numbers are here it’s up to you and uh you know i’m grinding over here i don’t know about you folks but i’m calling a ball game i’m cracking jokes i’m engaging with the chat i’m trying to make a channel successful doing everything i can think to do folks but i need your help okay please hit the like button that’s all you got to do let’s get to 100 we’re 11 away we’ve got the numbers anybody in the charm city chat uh in the mood to maybe help bw out and maybe say something to the effect of “hey help out bw and hit that like button he needs it he deserves a little help help him out.” because uh you know if you guys uh kind of have my back it might make this whole asking for likes thing uh a little bit a little bit more effective i don’t know just throwing it out there help a brother out we’re going to the bottom of the sixth right okay so that was the other one seven innings without a hit against the yankees on saturday clark schmidt that was the other game hey kron how you doing look at katron gets here first thing on his mind is to encourage others to hit the like button that’s what i’m talking about and i want to thank you very much for that i really do said mullins a swing and a miss on the first pitch latz is still out there on the mound in the bottom of the sixth next pitch is hit into center field straight away and caught out there by carter for out number one folks we’ve made 19 outs without a hit hello hello oh my god look at this guy with the hair okay that little baby boy’s precious with the binky dylan carlson up for just the second time tonight looks at a called strike carlson popped out back in the third inning swing and a miss and it’s 0 and2 the orioles made lats work in one inning the fifth 23 pitches that previous inning otherwise it has been easy street for lats popped up right center shallow and the catch will be made out there two down ground control to orioles offense ground control to orioles offense can you please wake up and hit the freaking ball ground control to orioles offense haven’t had a hit the whole freaking night take your swings and may god’s love be with you boing [Music] here’s a ground ball to second by holiday and that’ll end the inning six innings without a hit six innings without a hit we go to the seventh three nothing texas this is orioles offense to ground control we’re swinging and we’re missing and we’re not taking enough pitches at bat and we’ve got no runs on the board would you look at that holy cow do something ground control to manelino your offense dead there’s something wrong can you hear me major tony can you hear me major tony jesus christ i’ve got the hat on for crying out loud i’ve done my work hey we’re two likes away from a hundred help a brother out and this team is floating in a most peculiar way and the standings look very different today oh here we are sitting 10 games under far from october our offense is trash and i’m starting to develop a rash uh keegan aken will stay out here to begin the seventh inning first pitch fouled away by lenford comebacker to akin flip to the pitcher or flip to mayo by the pitcher for the first out in the top of the seventh oh wow i’ve got rounds of applause pitch is low to cory seager one out nobody on in the top of the seventh rangers ahead ed boy swinging a miss it’s one and one [Laughter] floating in a tin can with the bees that would be such a terrible situation as if major tom isn’t already in a bit of a pickle now he’s got bees no not the bees not the be my eyes oh i’m picturing i’m picturing space oddity in a completely new light now line drive past gunner into center field for a one out single damn gunner was positioned right behind the mound in second base that ball right up the middle but he still couldn’t get there i mean really how did he not get there i guess he couldn’t see the ball that’s my best guess his reaction was late and the ball hit right up the middle maybe the pitcher and the mound kind of blocking his view of the ball so seagar’s at first with one out and now marcus simeon is up here’s a soft grounder to second holiday over to first for the second out runner at first goes to second base with two down and i’m sorry but i’ve got to fold some clothes tell my wife i love her very much she knows adoleis garcia takes a called strike the 01 from aken upstairs one ball and one strike folks ocean city maryland is calling you swing for the shoreline today ocean city swing and a miss one ball and two strikes one and two on garcia with two down a runner at second base and that is a check swing without an appeal so no swing full count should be a full count i thought it was three and two line drive into left field that’s a base hit here comes a runner rounding third the throw coming in it will be late and the hitter will make it up to second base on that throw seager scores garcia gets to second on an rbi single and it’s four nothing rangers well folks here’s the deal if the orioles absolutely stink it up tonight at least you watched it here with me and got to hear a parody song of space oddity to amuse you otherwise

we’re getting no hit so how about this folks if we get a hit we get a super chat here’s a ground ball to third aras over to first in time and the inning is over so that’s the deal folks if we get no hit i don’t want a super chat if we get a hit let’s get one all right we’re going to the bottom of the seventh folks we have had absolutely nothing to get excited about really at all tonight but it is

lucky i’m up to get it lucky i’m up to get it lucky i’m up to i’m lucky i’m up to what’s that logan hey everybody we’re all going to get laid [Applause] [Music] kobe mayo at the plate takes a first pitch strike from hobie milner we got a side armor in here a left-handed side armor still nobody out in the inning with these five runs and backto backto back home runs for the first time in eight years august the 6th 2017 my game just froze my game just froze folks it’s been such a great half hour don’t freeze on me looks like it’s 0 and2 on mayo right now four now come on i swear it would be just my luck for them to hit a fourth straight home run and mayo’s first major league home run and i miss it because of the stream come on don’t do this to me where are you at come on man the game’s not coming back up standby going to try the backup channel oh would you just cooperate for the love of a god you pnikity little okay i’m sorry uh so there’s one away uh so i guess uh mullins is up now with an 02 count sorry everybody so mayo was out i’m going to guess he struck out let’s see what happened what happened with mayo i’m just going to guess he grounded out he made he got it into play third base okay mayo grounded out the third for the first out here said with an 02 count and fouls it off to the right all right folks so i had to go to a different stream i don’t know if you’re uh synced up with me or not but right now i’m looking at an 02 count seven pitches from milner here’s number eight and it’s hit on the ground toward first base flip to the pitcher covering do you see how fast that pitcher was on first base to get that ball where was aken and where what was mayo doing on that same kind of play whatever folks we have to put any mistakes earlier in the game behind us we got a lead two down now for dylan carlson dylan your son we’re going to want those heart icons in the chat patrick in the ninth inning because we’re going to have the lead then right check swing carlson doesn’t go carlson thinks the pitch hit him the orioles are checking to see if they want to challenge i mean carlson should basically say don’t challenge or challenge he should know there’s no challenge it’s a one- count and a foul ball to make it one and one five to four baltimore in the bottom of the seventh a game in which when the inning started we were being no hit now look at us and carlson goes to left field this one’s hit pretty deep but it’s going to stay in the yard just at the edge of the warning track in front of the bullpen in left center field inning over but folks there was about a 10-minute stretch in there where it was absolute euphoria i can’t wait to go back and listen to the replay of that last half inning folks we’re going now to the eighth the orioles lead it five to four gregory sodto was up and getting loose uh we’ll see who’s due up for texas if it’s lefties due that would make sense if it’s not maybe brian baker i don’t know who is due up to hit next hit oh it’s the top of the order right so yeah i think we’re probably going to go to sodto excuse me for the eighth inning you have smith and seager two of the three batters do up uh from the left side now if anybody gets on after that you got simeon a right-hander and garcia a right-hander we got to have somebody ready in case sodto allows a base runner either a one two three inning or a right-hander coming in for batter number four my oh my chris martin i mean that that might have knocked that dude out of his career honestly came in there faced three batters and gave up three home run balls are you kidding me how do you recover from that you’re a 39year-old pitcher and that just happened to you all right sodto is in the ball game here we go top of the order for the rangers the orioles have the lead but it’s just a run still work to be done folks still work to be done we cannot let a comeback like that go to waste first pitch is a strike to osuna who i’m now just learning oh i’m sorry we got a pinch hitter up sam hagerty i was saying osuna is a switch hitter no hagert’s up there to pinch hit check swing no swing on ball one one and one on hagerty who started last night he’s hitting .278 right-handed batter against sodto one-1 pitch inside oh so i was wrong i was wrong i’m just now figuring this out folks i was saying over and over again we had the top of the order do up it’s 89 and one do up still two out of three lefties but i was in the wrong part of the lineup so osuna hagashi and smith were the ones due and that is ball four to hagerty the pinch hitter gets a free pass to lead off the eighth inning what are we doing oh boy here’s sagashi and again folks against a lefty starter last night the guy hitting ninth was all the way up to the number five spot which tells me that hagashi must uh have pretty good numbers against lefties so this is not the situation you were hoping for a leadoff walk and hagashi now up there he takes a called strike i’m happy he was looking like he was ready to just look at a first pitch cuz that slider was pretty much middle middle now that slider more back door but we don’t get the call on the outside corner it’s one ball one strike orio fans want a double play i’d love to see one let’s go this one’s hit in the air right center it’s deep and it’ll be caught out there by mullins on the track in front of the bleacher seats in right center field one down keeping hagashio in the yard only just as he tries to go opposite field one away back to the top of the order for josh smith now let’s end this inning with that double play ball oh we’re going to have another pinch hitter smith gives way to the switchhitting catcher jonahheim bruce bochi pulling out all the tricks so sodto will not face a lefty at all unless he stays in to face seager but we don’t want that inning to go that long this ball gets away from sanchez to the back stop gary what the hell man your threerun bomb we want to root for you buddy but your defense is horrible what kind of way of blocking that pitch was that no effort to block this pitch want to know the count and the tying run now at second base the double play is off the runner goes to third and he’s safe god damn it hagerty steals third base the tying run 90 ft away a two- pitch is hit in the air and that’ll get the run in on a sack fly even the strong arm of lauriano who drops the ball in the transfer wouldn’t have been able to get the runner out we got a tie ball game again sodto blows the lead five to five in the top of the eighth well you can’t uh you can’t pack it up and fold folks and they’re going to keep sodto out there because seager is on deck base is empty two down with lenford at the plate seager if he does come up would be the only lefty sodto sees that’s a called strike on the outside corner it’s 0 and one pitch high one ball one strike langford is 0 for four tonight one- one pitch swinging a miss a slider low and away a right-hander getting up for the rangers win one two to langford swinging a miss and that’ll end the inning on a strikeout oh sodto you walked the lead off man dude i mean that tying run was so bush league a leadoff walk a terrible wild pitch that look i’m not saying every catcher successfully blocks that pitch and keeps the runner from advancing but sanchez’s attempt was terrible and then immediately a steal of third and then in on a fly ball out that’s how they tie the game if that don’t bite you in the ass folks i don’t know what to tell you all right we move ahead to the bottom of the eighth tied at five we got to win this game we gota too too good of a comeback to let it go to waste man i’m sorry we got to win this it’ll be a test of you guys as fans it’ll be a test of the players out there as well how do you respond you just had all that adrenaline from an epic comeback and now you’re back to square one how do you respond and how you respond well to me that is the measure of the kind of team you are and whether or not you deserve to be playing in october in all honesty you got to respond you got to respond let’s go root root root for the home team folks and if they don’t win well i don’t have to tell you jackson holiday leading off fouls the first pitch away holiday road folks [Music] 0 for two is holiday he does have a walk that was that really nice at bat he had in the fourth inning he takes strike two here it’s 0 and2 leading off the bottom of the eighth obie milner on the mound next pitch is low one ball two strikes ezekiel duran is now in the ball game at first base after jonah pinch hit for josh smith hagerty stays in the game for osuna in right field that pitch was close holiday stays alive on a borderline pitch called ball two two balls two strikes luke jackson getting loose for the rangers a right-hander holiday a swinging a miss and that is the first out ramon lauraniano just uh let’s see he’s one for three tonight base hit in the seventh so he started the uh rally right he started that rally in the previous inning with that hit fouls this pitch away it’s one ball and one strike on lauraniano that’s right it was the very first hit of the night and things just really took off from there 2-1 pitch outside three and one the count on lauriano folks pitch a check almost a check swing it was a swing but not a full swing by lauriano he fouls it off full count one out nobody on in the bottom of the eighth payoff pitch from milner is outside ball four take your base raone the go-ahead run the potential winning run is on at first with one away whoops whoops whoops there we go raone just threw a rock at me [Music] i’m walking here i’m walking here gunner henderson folks let’s go his name’s gunner and he’s dating my mom [ __ ] is outside one and0 pinch run matteo uh you mean jorge i’ve been injured for the past three four weeks matteo there’s a called strike one and one felix bautista is standing up in the bullpen not actively throwing ground ball foul by gunner one and two the count one ball two strikes on gunner 25 pitches from milner since coming on and that is called strike three gunner frozen for the second out apparently lefties just cannot hit hobie and milner and gunner didn’t know what to do on that pitch that’ll do it for milner the right-handed sanchez is due up and unfortunately they can’t call on chris martin to come in here it’ll have to be another right-hander gonna be this win guy is it colewin what’s this guy’s first name folks there’s over 200 people here right now you guys must have just gotten word that the orioles have had a fantastic comeback it was fantastic folks back-to backto back home runs beginning with a earl weaver special from gary sanchez deep into the left field seats just to give you an idea of how deep folks uh with the old dimensions of left field with waltimore that was a home run ball and backto back after that ramona ras opposite field just snuck one onto the flag horn and then ryan o’harn absolutely destroyed a pitch into right center field to give us the lead so sanchez with the three-run bomb to get us back aras with the home run to tie it and then o’harn with the home run to take the lead unfortunately gregory sodto came out here in the top of the eighth inning with that one-run lead issued a leadoff walk that runner then got to second on a wild pitch then stole third and came home on a fly ball out on a sack fly to tie this thing up just about as ugly of a way to give the lead away after that comeback but we’re tied and uh we want to win two down with a runner at first with gary sanchez coming up luke jackson is the pitcher 30 appearances i guess he’s their closer he’s got nine saves and 11 chances a 376 era here we go jackson versus sanchez with two down and that first pitch is up sanchez has to turn his head away from it it’s one and0 folks release the kraken release the kraken that’s low and in two and0 the count okay [Music] check on the runner and lauriano is back in there [Music] two balls no strikes pitch three and 0 sanchez take another [Music] i say give him the green light pitch oh come on blue all right that did just catch the inside corner three balls in a strike folks go ahead and run at first base with two down jackson’s come in and thrown four sliders three of them out of the zone the pitch swinging a miss it’s another slider it’s in the zone and the count is full all right folks we do have a little bit of extra help with a full count lauraniano can get a jump if sanchez can hit a ball into the gap or down the line lauriano might be able to score payoff pitch coming right now swing and a miss oh sanchez jackson throws nothing but sliders and he saves his best for last as that one broke hard from inside the zone to below sanchez strikes out the inning is over we go to the ninth inning tied at five my oh my so it’ll be aras o’harn and luis vasquez who has come into the ball game to replace kobe mayo defensively with vasquez going to third base and aras going from third to first interesting so we set ourselves up to have vasquez be the third guy up in the ninth inning when now we can’t really pinch hit for him that was probably not good planning that was probably not the best planning we’re going to need a ras and o’harn to figure it out before vasquez comes up or do something to give vasquez a chance to help out by moving them over or something but man if it comes up to vasquez needing to drive in the run gosh he doesn’t have a hit yet on the season folks i guess he’s due i am thirsty and i got nothing to drink by the way folks it is bright sunshine out here can i just can i turn off this light can i you can see how much on my hand this light how harsh do you guys mind i’m just going to turn it off i don’t know how it’s bad it’s going to look i mean it ain’t terrible right you can deal with this now i don’t have that awful light in my face the mountain is on the pitch folks the mountain is on the pitch mountain this is what it’s all about and i can’t blame manelino for using him now because he got the tough part of the rangers order up seager simeon and garcia we’re not here to close we’re here to hold first pitch is inside to seager that’s right folks get those mountains up in the chat if you’re a magic member we’ve got magic mountains they look like this mountain this is what it’s all about swing and a miss one ball one strike or a half dozen mountains with a can of old bay seasoning that works too oh my look at that emoji this ball’s lying in the right field that’s a base hit a splitter from bautista and seager was all over it folks we got 190 people here right now we’re up to 130 likes we have the numbers to smash the record you got to get up to the 160s if you want to get there folks you want to be a part of uh history on this channel and you haven’t tapped the like button go ahead and do it and you could be a part of history simeon at the plate with a runner at first and nobody out first pitch to him is a slider that you don’t want to see that was not a good pitch very high that’s not where a slider belongs the count one and0 bautista from the belt seager is running throw down and we can’t even keep seager from stealing this guy averages like two steals a year oh my goodness rangers have the go-ahead run at second and nobody out seager steals a base high for ball three all right i’m going to bring up the light count again this time i’m going to say please let’s break a record just in case that way we have something to celebrate no matter what tonight the 3 0 to simeon is in there for a strike the rangers are three for eight tonight with runners in scoring position orioles have only had one at bat and with a runner in scoring position and we’re one for one 3-1 pitch that ball’s hit hard but foul late on that pitch full count come on mountain mountain this is what it’s all about we really need a strikeout we can’t afford to get that runner to get moved up we need a k or keep it in the air on the infield something full count pitch swung on and missed a slider bautista gets simeon the chase that was ball four folks well y’all come back now you hear well y’all come back now you hear bautista now giving seager a long look and first pitch to garcia is low and away for ball one all right who’s on deck evan carter the left-hander uh yeah i think he kind of he you got to go after a garcia if anything i might put carter on next if we get the second out now pitch low and in two and 0 on garcia he’s 0 for three he struck out oh this is career against bautista 0 for three with a pair of strikeouts so go after him felix got a two- count man we need a strike don’t throw a fast ball middle he did and he got away with it holy cow garcia with a two- count probably looking for that heat he got it and still couldn’t catch up to it it’s two and one so there you go bautista now you know just throw strikes maybe not that much in the middle of the plate but throw strikes you’ll get this guy 2-1 pitch that one is hit on the ground to third aras to first two down in the inning with seager still at second base folks one more out takes us to the bottom of the ninth [Music] trying to work around seager evan carter is up the left-handed bat with the right-handed bat of young on deck be careful called strike on the outside edge 0 and one on carter carter is two for four tonight seager at second base two down bautista gives him another long look now the pitch it’s low on a splitter one ball and one strike epic ball game tonight nothing boring about this game at least not since uh about an hour ago one-1 pitch high two and one mountain from the belt a look at second kicks and deals the 2-1 swinging a miss two strikes with two out in the ninth and fans in the ballpark who know the deal say “get up get up let’s get this final strike.” the two pitch fouled straight back we’re up to 139 legs folks this is out of nowhere we could break the record tonight i think the record is honestly 166 likes 166 is this channel’s record the we’re going to have a time umpire jumps out of his crouch to grant time to the batter baltimore you are seeing history being made today the two pitch to carter bautista here it comes fouled back 99 miles per hour carter hangs in there for another pitch a six pitch at bat so far give him your best felix another two- two pitch he did not go after a low splitter full count nerves of steel from carter there folks the light count is growing come on lead the charge matt get everybody in get everybody on board payoff pitch swing and a miss swing and a miss we’ll take it to the bottom of the ninth we’re going to walk it off bw will not settle for less bottom of the ninth tied at five let’s go come on [Music] well y’all come back now you hear let me uh go over here for a minute hi everybody where am i i’m over here now hi welcome to my channel if you’re new i’m glad you found me this is the second season this channel’s been around it’s dedicated to covering orioles baseball live playbyplay and commentary every single game uh again i started it last year in spring training and every regular season game a postseason that we don’t really want to talk about every game so far this season including spring training if it’s televised it’s all here folks on this channel so if you enjoy orioles baseball or just a fan of baseball in general i think you’ll like the content here so go ahead and subscribe okay uh we’re closing in on 2900 subs that would be a nice uh goal to achieve if not tonight then quite soon but uh with the likes it is i believe 166 we are 15 short 255 people are chilling here right now in fact we could get the likes to 200 if you wanted to the numbers are here folks if you got it in your heart i don’t know why maybe there’s something going on in the galaxy there’s like a uh what do you call it there’s a comet or something a solar flare but for whatever reason we got a ton of people here right now let’s make history folks and hit that like button we are underway bottom of the ninth ramona at the plate ball one next pitch hit on the ground to short it’s a routine grounder seager will throw out aras one out in the ninth all right folks of course i want to hit the record but obvious we just hit the record i think i think we just did it 167 holy cow i think that’s a record folks holy cow keep it going here is ryan o’harn maybe the orioles will give this chat a big thank you right now o’harn at the plate can end it with a big swing if he can do what he did last time up lights on let’s turn and burn keep those hearts going that’s right it’s not a save moment for a win it’s a walk-off moment for a win so keep those hearts going folks until we walk it off that is the heartbeat of the chat right there foul ball from o’harn two and one the count five score in the bottom of the ninth the orioles won last night what a victory a shut out trevor rogers eight innings trying to win game two here two-1 pitch that one’s lifted to right onto the track and it’s caught oh oh oh hearn oh hagerty with the catch on the track in front of the scoreboard in right field two down in the bottom of the ninth if we don’t walk it off we got to do that ghostrunner crap and it’s luis vasquez all right well there is one benefit if vasquez makes the third out he does provide a bit of help he’ll be the ghost runner if that’s the case and he’s not too slow that’s better than kobe mayo ghost running i would say this one is fouled away one ball one strike two down in the ninth or we could just walk it off with the biggest surprise home run in the history of orioles baseball we could do that one-1 pitch hit on the ground to first base duran will take it to the bag unassisted for the final out all right the hearts can take a break folks we can’t win it in the top of the tenth those hearts will have to wait for the bottom of the tenth we got to go out here and shut the door as the rangers will begin the inning with a ghost runner at second base extra innings folks here we go sir anthony dominguez it looks like he’s coming in coming into the game fifth reliever of the night and who is due up for the rangers who made that final out garcia right no carter so it’s the bottom of the order do up j uh josh young hagerty and hagashi bottom of the order problem is evan carter is your ghostrunner and he is quick that is a problem you don’t want carter as the ghost runner but that’s the deal they definitely have the ghost runner advantage in this 10th inning folks again 200 we can do it i love the fact that i believe we broken a record but come on folks over 200 of you here right now if we were to get to 200 likes tonight folks you would basically have the knowledge that you played a part in making a person feel so good about the state and health of his channel and all the work that he’s putting in to try to make it work out that’s what you would be doing right now if you haven’t hit the like button yet and if you just tap that thumb that’s what you would be doing it means that much to me to get to 200 what an accomplishment it would be folks keep on rocking sir anthony dominguez is on for the orioles knight of the orange table sir anthony they don’t have ghost runners in the postseason clifford if they did i would raise hell carter is on at second base josh young is at the plate keep an eye on carter and dominguez is keeping an eye before he throws a pitch he turns around and steps off the rubber to look carter back first pitch to young swing and a miss okay that’s how this inning starts strike one to young 01 swinging a miss again on that sweeper it’s 0 and2 oh a strike out of the first batter is oh so huge extra inning ghost runner first batter strikeout would be huge we got young 0 and2 where do we want to go dominguez from the belt the pitch swing and a miss sit down sit down well y’all come back now you hear well y’all come back now you here dominguez comes in young strikes out here’s hagerty he’s only been up to the plate once since coming in but what an appearance it’s a walk two stolen bases and a run oh so on that wild pitch that sanchez did not play well apparently hagerty had taken off to steal so he gets credit for a steal and which takes away the wild pitch interesting stuff swing and a miss one ball one strike a splitter from dominguez folks i don’t want to uh annoy those watching right now by repeatedly bringing up the like situation but if those in chat could bring it up to help uh encourage a chance at getting to 200 tonight i would really appreciate it we got a 2-1 count on hagerty the numbers are here to do it folks everybody pitch in let’s get there two balls one strike there’s strike two fast ball bottom of the zone hey pocket watch how you doing buddy it was neither george because uh it was a stolen base so there was no advancement of a runner they give him credit for a steal you can’t have both right that is low and it gets away and carter will go to third good grief sanchez cannot handle pitches in the dirt man we need a strike out it’s a full count runner 90 ft away popped up and out of play five score in the top of the tenth full count on hagerty the payoff pitch fouled away again rangers with a runner 90 ft away and one out the ghost runner dominguez with a layer of sweat on his forearm same with the batter hagerty it is disgusting weather out there folks brown ball back to second base they throw the runner out at the plate we nail the runner at the plate jackson holiday hells to the yeah oh doctor two down with a runner only at first base now folks they’re going to challenge this hold hold on hold on hold the hell on i need a closer look i mean the umpire is right on top of this he’s he’s safe he’s safe i’m sorry but he’s safe damn it they’re going to overturn this he’s definitely safe if if they if they i’ll put it to you this way if the ch if the call stands and i’m a rangers fan i’m losing my mind if i’m a rangers fan and they don’t overturn this i am losing my mind it’s clear the hand is sliding over the plate before the glove gets to the rib cage it’s one of the easier plays you’re ever going to see to be honest with you i don’t even know why it’s taking this long folks keep on helping bw out trying to get to 200 likes tonight we’ve got the numbers i don’t want to annoy people maybe they think i’m an annoying guy that they just found for the first time i need you guys to convince these new folks to hit that like button cuz we are trying to break 200 likes for the first time tonight we are watching a replay challenge waiting for the call on what is whether or not the go-ahead run for the rangers the ghost runner right now it’s two down with the runner at first if this call is reversed it’ll be six to five texas with only one out and a runner at first they are still overturned it’s the right call all right folks don’t give up hope these are ghost runners we have to do our job and get ours in too what you don’t want is to give up more here is higashi and they pitch out and they snap throw to first base runner back sanchez what are you trying to do just worry about receiving the ball already cost us tonight this pitch popped up out of play one ball one strike we are in the top of the tenth the rangers have scored their ghost runner it’s six to five runner at first base with one out this game has been on for a while huh here we go one and one on hagashi and a throw to first runner back a lefthander is getting loose for the rangers pitch hit on the ground foul third base side two strikes on hagashi hagerty was running on that pitch hagerty the runner at first folks 15 likes away from two hundo i know we can do it i know we can do it i know we can do it come on come on come on that one bounces in there count even up at two and two what if whether or not we win this game hinges on hitting that number tonight what if we had control of our own fate that pitch is inside and the count goes full a dozen away from 200 folks a dozen 12 12 is a number with one syllable we’re one syllable number away okay now it’s 11 and that’s three syllables how does it suddenly feel farther away we’re 11 away there’s a strike and a throw down second is late agashio strikes out for the second out of the inning with a stolen base for the rain how many steals tonight what is that four five how many steals hagerty has two seager has one oh hagerty now has three sorry good grief he’s got three steals on us tonight orioles have a mound meeting going on ezekiel duran is the batter dooop he came on to replace josh smith in the field after jonah had pinch hit in that spot earlier duran’s hitting just a buck 43 home play dump is trying to break up the mound meeting but right now orioles don’t care they’re still talking ezekiel duran you gotta get this dude seven likes away from 200o folks oh i’m counting 191 where i’m looking could be wrong all right here is duran first pitch is in the dirt and it gets away from sanchez good grief runner moves up to third base oh god with two down it’s not that big of a deal probably we’ll see how much of a deal it will be but i mean sanchez cannot block a pitch to save his life it is frightening this pitch is popped up and behind the plate one ball one strike i’ve been saying it carry three catchers when adley and hanley were both uh healthy and sanchez came back i’m like “yeah make gary the dh keep hanley send vasquez down we don’t really have any use for him.” what use we have of vasquez isn’t as helpful as what use we could get if we just let sanchez dh hanley be the backup but of course right now hanley is also injured as well as adley we’re kind of stuck with gary behind the plate folks uh chadwick trump our current backup and by the way jacob stallings veteran journeyman catcher uh signed by the orioles to their uh aaa team as uh a little bit of depth forgot to mention that in the pregame we got a 2-2 count on duran two down in the inning and i hope right now this team is ready to hit when it’s our turn here’s a foul ball we’ll do it again yeah for a guy to scoop up available guy to scoop up stallings is pretty good better than garry’s michael 22 is inside full count crowd groans but it was inside it started in the zone but broke inside full count folks with two down payoff pitch good grief at least sanchez saved that pitch as bad as sanchez has been behind the plate tonight that prevented another run from scoring hey can we get a pitcher in here with better command at least so we don’t have to worry about wild pitches or else we’re going to lose this game this way the combination of dominguez with his stuff and sanchez catching is gonna give me an ulcer there’s two down with runners at the corners now and now it’s wyatt langford up 0 for five so far tonight swinging a miss he went after the high gas well that was a sweeper never mind i thought that was a heater with that location a sweeper above the zone swung on a miss makes it 0 and one 25 pitches from dominguez since coming on that one breaks off the plate that was the four seamer even the fourseamer’s moving folks i love the movement i’m just worried about the guy receiving it one ball one strike pitch off the plate two and one if this goes any further cory seager is on deck and we are out of lefties two-1 pitch swinging a miss two and two we need this next strike holy cow folks come on charm city chad dig down deep i don’t care where you got to find it go and find it we need it pitch low full count oh tom hang in there tom again it’s the ghost runner i know they have a lead but let’s just let’s just assume we’re going to at least get that ghost runner in let’s worry about this called strike three on the inside corner at the knees we go to the bottom of the tent the tying run will already be in scoring position in the form of luis vasquez mullins is do lfg [Music] folks six likes away from 200 five make it five we are breaking a record if we do it folks in glorious fashion could 200 likes equal an orioles comeback for the ages not just walking it off here but that earlier comeback somebody just took their like away [Music] you’re not going to stop us we’re going for 200 we are three away folks we’re there we’re freaking there it’s history baltimore you are seeing history being made today unbelievable let’s take it home folks unbelievable and i want to thank you very much for that i really do i really do i really want to thank you for that i’m ecstatic i mean i just want so bad to win this game to make it all just euphoria euphoria if we can do this come on that’s right somebody is sending some hearts right now through the chat and folks you want to walk this off you want to win this damn thing keep those hearts flying until we do that’s our mission vasquez the ghostr runner mullins do up here we go in the bottom of the tenth down a run said might said lay one down might said lay one down a lefty robert garcia is on i would consider this lefty on lefty garcia steps off the rubber that might have been more to see if said would show bunt than to look the runner back mullins is hitless so far tonight he’s not showing he is showing bunt he gets down a late bunt and it’s a beauty throw to first is in time just so but said “oh said we needed that.” the tying run 90 ft away it’s now up to carlson dylan carlson has got to drive this run home folks dylan your son oh my dylan please we need contact we need contact the infield is in for the rangers they are helping us with the infield in they don’t want to give up the tying run they are increasing our odds come on carlson one and0 the count pitch hit in the air and foul down the right field corner come on charm city chat we’re making history tonight in more ways than one the 1-1 to carlson hit in the air fouled again it’s two strikes you got to protect you must at all costs put this ball in play at all costs focus dylan focus one ball two strikes runner at third pitch he takes it low balls of steel two and two [Music] two and two on carlson crowd chanting let’s go o’s as carlson asks for time carlson is cool as a cucumber right now he’s ready for this moment two and two the count the pitch swing and a miss jackson holiday our final chance [Music] first pitch is called a strike a change up belt high on the inside corner please jackson please please swing and a miss 0 and two 02 pitch popped up going to end the ball game caught in right field the orioles drop it final score rangers six orioles five in 10 innings rangers left 12 men on base we left three what a great comeback attempt only to drop it late on oh my goodness that was heartbreaking my goodness i mean how many emotions can a man go through in one ball game folks i uh i am crestfallen okay i’m throwing out a 25 cent word bw is crestfallen i’m not sure what a crest is but it fell then again we’ve got melanie newman wearing a tight shirt and her jugs are out for everybody to see so i guess it’s not so bad god man i mean folks it was this close to being so magical so magical so good so happy instead we’re miserable i mean baseball who came up with this thing h never going to get to 500 like this uh i don’t know i don’t know i i think second half we’re going to have a better record than the first half will it be 10 games over in the second half because that’s what it’s going to take we’ll see good grief folks who is exhausted out there i mean i don’t know how to handle this how do how does anybody call a ball game that ends like that and then continues to announce anything i don’t know what to say now my sinuses are blocked up aras is good at sack flies isn’t he god it’s gary s can we just say what it is folks gary sanchez thank you so much for the three-run homer tonight but dude you cost us man i’m sorry like normally i’m telling people in the chat when they want to point fingers when we lose and say “you you you enough of you i can’t stand you.” but sanchez’s work behind the plate tonight was terrible absolutely terrible and runs were directly scored as a result um and bases were stolen as a result i mean yeah it was just a mess sanchez should not be catching um i already knew uh that sanchez’s defensive uh work wasn’t very good in fact uh pigtown sports hey if you’re hiding out here buddy pig town folks if you’re not aware another orio uh fan and youtuber uh has talked about how bad sanchez’s defense is uh so i’m sure pigtown will have plenty to say about how bad it was tonight and it cost us it absolutely cost us even though he gave us three runs on the board with that swing and started off that rally uh yeah late in the ball game and again it’s the combination if if you have a control pitcher out there a guy who doesn’t really throw stuff that you know typically goes in the dirt you know like an akin hell even brian baker doesn’t really throw stuff that baker doesn’t have a splitter right he’s like a fast ball slider change up guy right you you just don’t want a combination late in the ball game when it’s a close game and you got the combination of sanchez catching and a pitcher on the mound that throws pitches that hit the dirt a lot that’s i think that’s safe to say melanie what is going on you’ve got a crazy widow’s peak with the jack nicholson eyebrows i didn’t know the warehouse had a hooters restaurant inside but i’m i’m ready to get a table all right melanie i don’t mean to talk ella you’re what melanie you’re fine whatever melanie she’s wearing a sports bra and doing the doing the postgame show in a sports bra okay uh so yeah this game started with us bemoning how this offense could not get to jacob latz did not have a hit until the seventh inning i mean just what a crazy game this was like the shifts and like what’s what we’re doing wrong what we’re doing right what we’re doing wrong again but bottom line today the orioles had only four hits three of those four came in a row and they left the yard off of martin actually you know what think about what this team did tonight at the plate if you take martin out of this equation he gave up all of the runs i mean he’s not charged with them two runners were inherited but his pitches directly resulted in all five of these runs right and then when you look at the hits he gave up three that leaves one hit for the rest of this team against the rangers tonight and martin didn’t get an out so it’s basically like we we went 27 outs and got a hit if you take martin out of the equation maybe i shouldn’t have stuck around this long to come to the understanding of just how miserable this offense really is i mean we have the ability to have a big inning we’ve shown the big inning remember when we were up 8- nothing all eight of those runs came in the second inning and we did not get a runner into scoring position we didn’t get another hit i believe for the remainder of that game against the rays last week we’re doing this too much folks and that is all about the philosophy of this team it’s great to see the comeback it’s great when the big inning happens in a way where we go from losing into a winning position and if had it stayed that way we probably wouldn’t be sitting here talking about what’s wrong with the offense but the fact of the matter is our philosophy is not conducive to winning ball games on a on a consistent basis it’s not conducive to putting up a good number of hits on the board on a consistent basis four freaking hits one without martin in the ball game and don’t tell me it’s because we we we we faced the best pitching out there baseball has to offer we didn’t should have been more h charlie morton on the other hand man was he laboring out there he had one bad inning and had the guts to come out there and pitch the fifth inning when he was already over 90 pitches sweating his ass off i appreciate morton that was a hero inning in that fifth inning uh it’s just tough because there were moments tonight where it’s just like you’re my hero you’re my hero you’re my hero okay all right even jim palmer’s sweating his ass off holy cow well i’m sorry i’m sorry melanie newman has a book of notes about charlie morton hold on sorry i gotta listen to melanie can you flip your hair over to the other side to the other shoulder thanks why did they leave palmer alone to do the jim palmer is a oral legend he’s he’s he’s in his elder years don’t make him do this don’t make him have to explain what happened tonight alone talking to me let him go home let some uh intern do this i feel bad for palmer right now what is he doing still talking in an empty stadium after a loss like this get this man home [Laughter] folks i should have signed off by now but i’m just kind of decompressing here you know what i mean um if i if i sign off immediately i’ll get the bends i don’t want the bends i got to decompress oh here’s an idea hey folks these uh rolls here are oh they’ve got to be 10 hours old by now but that’s the great thing about thai food is that uh you don’t really have to refrigerate it and uh at room temperature it’s pretty much as good as it is when it’s heated up although i’ll admit these egg rolls are a little they’re not egg rolls they are rolls hey big jim thank you so much listen guys after a loss like that i really don’t want to focus too much on my channel and the fact that we got to 200 likes tonight and that makes me very happy because you know that’s secondary i would trade all those likes back for the win i hope you guys know that but still uh as long as you guys understand that then we can acknowledge uh it was a a great night for the channel lots of people showed up lots of people hanging out lots of people helping out it’s just too bad it had to end like this focus on that it’s better news a positive light on a tough night well big jim you know i mean i just i’m just trying to think what the optics might be if you’re a watcher you’re like look at this guy i just sat here the orioles just took a loss and this guy is just sitting here celebrating his sub count or whatever like count i just think the optics might be bad for you and not for every not everybody’s the same big jim some people understand they don’t need to you know you know they they understand but other folks you know they they don’t wow uh another bite of this please sorry folks matt is going to pretend that we won i’m more of a bw fan at this point than an orioles fan my content is immensely entertaining hey william can you agree with jim too [Music] can anybody else agree with jim thank you jim i’m just here checking out melanie newman while i’m having my my uh spring rolls melanie get back on the screen hun there you are oh yeah with those lines on that shirt it just enhances everything doesn’t it we have sucked against lefties matt but we were starting to turn a corner of course westber being hurt recently doesn’t help with our lineup westber we need that guy in there to face lefties leading off in my humble view wait we got a manelino press conference hold on i’m sorry i can’t take a manager seriously that’s got a fauxhawk like he’s 16 years old hanging out at the mall come on man seleno are are you still is that where we are now managers have fauxhawks just just just comb the hair back tony how you doing everybody hey you know what i’m really not in the mood to hear tony talk about so much how good the other team is at certain things after a loss that seems to be a very popular talking point for tony we get to hear about how good the other team is at things when we lose this is like sweet sweet hot sauce sorry for eating on on the mic i’m done for now tony do me a favor don’t start any statement with the bottom line is cuz you don’t give any bottom lines my friend i’m sorry you sound like if chat gpt created a manager for me and just said all the things you’re supposed to to keep the front office happy that’s what you sound like to me dude i get it you got to show uh you know that you’re a civil guy that can keep an even keel and you’re looking to manage if you’re not going to do it here you’re you’re auditioning i get it but i can tell you this if i’m an owner or a gm looking for a guy i want a guy with a little more fire under his ass i mean folks sorry to bring up the past but it’s still pretty recent manelino excusing that jazz chisum collision not only excusing it but pretty much taking the yankee like stance of like j there was nothing jazz could do there’s nothing jazz could do he tried to avoid there’s nothing he could do really he left his feet he left his feet he put his hands out onto the head of your catcher and you’ve had time to go back and look at it and you mean to tell me jazz didn’t do anything wrong there where was he supposed to go i guess that little twoft feet wide stretch of brown stuff between the foul grass and the fair grass i guess his maverick is standing on the foul grass his feet are not in the base path his glove is extended to get a swipe tag because maverick played that ball perfectly in such a way to get the out without setting up a potential injury or major collision it should have been a swipe play jazz is out now jazz he could have done the thing while as he’s running by kind of done the shrug and try to knock the ball out we’ve seen that many times but no he put his hands on the catcher’s head flipped him upside down and gave him a concussion okay and manelino is not going to sit there and not only not uh respond in the game but his take is that jazz did nothing wrong i mean what the hell dude what are you looking at what are you looking at and then today i got to read about how you’re telling me jackson holiday is such a good leadoff hitter that you can’t even imagine anyone else in the leadoff spot until 2031 apparently tony tony i’m sorry look had we won this game none of this conversation is happening it’s not a conversation it’s a monologue hey melanie how are the cans okay great um tony just come on buddy what do you got i mean look i know what you got to lose uh a chance at managing somewhere i guess and you’re doing whatever you think you’re supposed to do but does it have to be at the expense of the team or the fans for that matter could you please uh you know grow a pair and uh you know act like your life is on the line out there as a manager because you everything is this is your baby if you’re a manager this is your baby and what did you do for that collision nothing nothing not good not good all right all right i’m just moving the microphone around i’m i’m all over the place it’s time for my medication folks i’m just hanging out late you guys don’t have to hang out with me what are we down to 38 people i can’t believe we broke 200 likes guys i can’t believe it i’m so happy about that i just wish the uh extenuating circumstances were better morton’s getting interviewed you know what charlie morton i tell you what charlie morton is is an old soul like i’m not even trying to joke like morton like his his uh his demeanor right now his uh cadence it it’s it’s really down it’s it’s really kind of depressing but at the same time it’s kind of refreshing because it’s real i will say that about morton he seems like a real dude and you know a a dude that has feelings and i appreciate that because i have feelings too you know i have feelings too and to put them out there not a lot of guys do it i mean he has no words leave leave charlie alone would you get the lights and cameras and microphones off of him please let him go home all right matt take it easy luke jackson gets the win by the way dominguez the loss and garcia a save his sixth all right folks i think it’s time to call it a night um i really did enjoy our time together i just wish again i could enjoy the result uh final score rangers 6 orioles 5 tomorrow night we’re back at it same start time uh stream will begin at 6:20 why why do we have to start so freaking early why can’t we start a little bit late i mean tonight actually kind of worked out because this was a long ass game but in general stop stop this 6:30 stop please it’s not helping the locals and it’s not helping a guy living 12 time zones away uh tomorrow night the rubber game of this series and it looks like it’s going to be brandon young that’s going to start this game tomayuki sagano is listed on espn as the starter well now i’ve gone into the game and now it says undecided okay so officially sagano not scheduled to pitch brandon young officially also not yet scheduled to pitch but according to rock kabatokco on his twitter feed he will pitch tomorrow in some capacity so what that tells me is that if he’s not starting we’re going to pull that thing where we use a relief pitcher to start the game and then bring in brandon young after an inning or two so expect that tomorrow and we’re going up against one of the better pitchers in this sport over the past decade or so uh when he’s healthy he’s pretty nasty and folks his numbers this year are as good as ever jacob deg grom yikes that is who we have to go up against for this series finale to try to win this series deg grom is 7-2 with a 2.24 era and a whip of just 0.92 88 in the third innings 87 strikeouts so he’s still punching out a batter per inning just nine home runs that is less than one per nine and just 18 walks which is less than two per nine that’s who we got to go up against brandon young against jacob deg grom tomorrow the stream will begin at 6:20 p.m right here on this channel all right i think that about does her folks have a good rest of your night i will check and see if there’s somewhere i can send you if not i will sign off the oldfashioned way hey we got something we got jj let me make sure he’s not in the middle of a postgame wrap-up jj does long post games it looks like that’s a final it is a final oh the phillies got shut out one zip imagine only giving up one run and losing all right i’m going to send you the fitzy he’s out west he’s out west uh actually this game yeah it should be on right yeah it’s going into the fourth inning one- nothing red sox say hi to thomas fitzpatrick folks be good to the kid he means well sorry charm city chat sorry uh i want to thank uh the mods in the chat for doing another bangup job thanks to uh jew brownie for the big super chat i think it was robert who gave me the super sticker as well uh and again what a night in terms of breaking a record for the channel over 200 likes unbelievable if only it was in tandem with a win but uh we’re going to try to do that tomorrow folks i’ll see you then until then this has been the bird watcher and the hat and we will chirp at you later have a good night everybody
