be a show. But Miss Tate said, “No, I’ll tell you what you can do. Take me out to the ball game. Take me out with the crowd. Buy me some peanuts and crackers, Jack. I don’t care if I never get back. Let me root. Root root for the home team. If they don’t win, it’s a shame. For it’s one, two, three strikes. are at the old ball game. Ky Casey saw all the games, knew the players by their first names, told the umpire he was wrong all along. Good and strong when the score was just two to two. Casey Casey knew what to do. just to cheer up the boys she knew. She made the gang sing this song. Please take me out to the ball game. Take me out with the crowd. Buy me some peanuts and crack a jack. I don’t care if I never get back. Let me root root root for the home team. If they don’t win, it’s a shame for it’s one, two, three strikes. You’re out at the old ball game. Greetings folks and welcome to live coverage of Orioles baseball where this afternoon the Baltimore Orioles will be wrapping up the fourth and final game of this fourame series against the Toronto Blue Jays here at Oral Park at Camden Yards. How you doing everybody? It’s your old pal the bird watcher here. People call me BW for short. And folks, what is going on lately here with this Baltimore Orioles baseball team? Uh we have seen some record-breaking performances here on this home stand uh that began with a heartbreaking loss uh to the Rockies on Friday night. Ever since uh the Orioles uh are absolutely crushing it. Uh five wins in a row, right? 1 2 3 4 five. Six out of seven. And in the last five wins, the Orioles have been averaging more than 10 runs per game. In fact, if you throw away last night’s narrow three-to win, uh the previous four games, the Orioles were uh had scored 50 runs in four games. That’s like more than a dozen per game. Just insane. Uh what’s been going on lately? The Rockies came to town and uh it’s like they never left. We’ve been treating the Blue Jays like most teams have been ple uh been treating the Rockies this season. So, we’re hoping that we just uh ride this wave for as long as we can. Uh I’m not peeking at the standings like a few other fans out there are. I don’t blame you if you want to. And never lose hope, folks. Never lose hope. But, uh I just want us to continue to put our heads down. Uh maybe it’s by sort of accepting reality and not looking at the standings and feeling the pressure of it all. Maybe that’s what is allowing this team to play loose and play better is put your head down, go out there, try to win some games, and uh you know, a month from now if you look up and you realize, holy cow, we have somehow managed to creep our way back into contention here, then we can talk about it. But, uh, for now, let’s just keep trying to play some good baseball here and, uh, let the chips fall where they may. You hear me, folks? Let’s root this team on for a four game sweep of the Blue Jays today. And then we got an off day tomorrow. So, that means nearly 48 hours of rest for me. I’m looking forward to it. I got to get myself ready for the weekend out at Wrigley Field. Harry Kerry will be joining us in some capacity surely. If it’s only for one inning or more than that, we’ll see. But uh we’re going to have some fun out at Wrigley Field and the Cubbies uh this weekend. Should be fun. But one more game to go here at Oriel Park at Camden Yards. The pitching matchup today has Dean Kramer going up against Jos Bereios. Kramer with a record of 8-7, a 4.23 erra. Bereios is 7 and4 with a 383 ERA and they both have the same walks and hits per innings pitched at 1 and a4. Uh they are very close in innings pitched, hits given up, strikeouts, they’re one home run off of each other. It’s it’s a very similar looking pitching line between these two right-handers on the season. So the pitching matchup is quite close. Uh it’s going to come down, I think, to who’s going to have the better uh day at the plate. Let’s go over the Blue Jays lineup first. Uh leading off and playing right field, Joey Lopero, Ernie Clement will play second and bat second. Vlad Guerrero Jr. in his usual spot at batting third. He’s dhing today. Bo Bashette will play shortstop and do the cleanup hitting. Addison Barger is at third base. He’ll bat fifth. Davis Schneider is in left field hitting sixth. Will Wagner, who spent um the series previously playing at third base, he’ll play first base today and hit seventh. Miles Straw in center field will bat eighth and Alli Sanchez will do the catching for the second straight day. Uh he will bat ninth. For the Orioles, Jackson Holiday will lead off and play second base. Jordan Westber is gonna bat second and play third. Gunner Henderson at shortstop will hit third. Adley Rutman is going to DH and do the cleanup hitting again. That appears to be his uh set spot in the lineup since returning from injury. He’s hit fourth every time so far. Ryan O’Harn will bat fifth and be at first base. Colton Cowser will hit sixth and uh man left field. Said Mullins will be in center batting seth. Dylan Carlson in right field hitting eighth. And finally, Alex Jackson is uh is this game already up? Oh, okay. Alex Jackson will bat ninth and do the catching for the Orioles. Uh no notable absentes in this lineup. Some right-handers. This is a very leftyheavy lineup. Only two right-handers in this lineup. Uh the catcher Jackson and uh Westber over at third base. No uh Tyler O’Neal, no uh Raone Lauraniano. That’s probably the biggest surprise here. Uh in fact, it was enough a surprise that oral beat writer Rock Kabatokco felt compelled to explain the absence of Lauraniano. Uh in a tweet about an hour ago, he said, “Just a rest day for Lauraniano coupled with tomorrow’s off day. I’m sure Lauriana will be available later in the ball game. Uh if the Blue Jays go to a lefty out of the pin or something like that or you want to pinch hit for Jackson or something like that. Although if you do that then we’d lose the DH with Adley. Honestly, I think we need to quit doing this thing with trying to work two catchers into the lineup. It’s one thing when you’re talking about Gary Sanchez and the offense that he brings and trying to keep Adley in the lineup every day, but I mean, Adley just got back. Alex Jackson’s been doing okay swinging the bat. Uh, you know, I’d rather just uh give the DH to uh a non-catcher and just pick one of these two catchers to catch. Uh yeah, no Aras in the lineup either. That’s not as much as a surprise. Aras has not been starting too much lately. Now that the lineup is pretty healthy uh against right-handed starters, you’re not going to see Aras as much, I would think. Uh again, once the trade deadline passes and perhaps a couple of these regulars are no longer with us, that might give Arias some more at bats for the future. But for now, yeah, Rus uh has mostly only getting uh been getting starts against lefties or in a situation like yesterday, we face two lefties in a double header. He’s definitely going to see some action in a spot like that. Uh right, this game is about 5 minutes away from getting started. Um we will be monitoring uh any information regarding trades. We had a trade literally in the middle of uh baseball yesterday uh as Sir Anthony Dominguez was traded to the team on the other side of the field between ball games yesterday. The Orioles found a way to win. Anyway, I’m telling you, I’m telling you folks, the the second win of that double header yesterday, I went back to uh kind of shuffle my way through the the highlights of the ball game and I I I honestly can’t figure out how the hell we won that game. I really don’t like as much as I can’t figure out how we blew a four-run lead to the Rockies last Friday night. Um, and wound up losing that game after hitting four home runs in the first two innings and uh a four-run lead on a team that’s 50 games under 500 at the time. as as crazy to lose a game like that is statistically, the the lack of probability, I would say uh that got evened out with that win last night over the Blue Jays. There really was Toronto really shot themselves in the foot, I guess, more than anything. uh they they really struggled this whole series when it comes to driving in runs with uh runners in scoring position. But uh last night, man, we had to escape a lot of jams, particularly in that ninth inning trying to close it out. Somehow somehow we won that game last night. Not quite sure how we did it. All right, looks like this is the last commercial break before coming back for first pitch. Let me see if there’s any other notes here worth sharing. Doesn’t really look like it here this morning. Uh Brandon Young was optioned uh down the double A Chesapeake after pitching in yesterday’s double header. Again, a reminder uh on double header uh days base uh MLB is uh uh they’re uh they allow the teams playing in a double header to add an extra man to their roster and Brandon Young was the extra guy. Uh so after making that start going six innings, he returns to uh the miners to double A. And uh you know uh going into yesterday’s spot start for Brandon Young, I wasn’t alone in thinking, you know, we’ve kind of seen what Brandon Young can do and he has he hasn’t really been looking all that great. Uh, is there another arm down there that maybe we haven’t been talking about that’s been doing okay that maybe you want to give a give a look at? And instead, they went back to Young. And I’m really happy that they did because uh I’m back on the Brandon Young uh train in terms of of him potentially figuring out how to put it together and consistently uh get outs and and be a decent starter in the league, if not eventually an arm in the bullpen or something. But uh six solid innings from Young yesterday out of nowhere. Really, that’s when you know there’s magic in the air, folks. Brandon Young, a bullpen that is now short of Felix Bautista, short of Gregory Sodto, short of Saranthy Dominguez, and short of Brian Baker. Folks, those are basically our four highest leverage arms in the bullpen. They’re all gone. They’re all gone. So, a bullpen right now. It is a cast of characters. Uh, mostly unknowns. Uh, but there are guys. There are guys and guys like Corbin Martin yesterday came up big. Uh, even though it uh was a bit of a heart attack to get there. So, let’s root on these uh underdogs, shall we? We’re about ready for baseball here. The fourth and final game of this series. Dean Kramer has made 20 starts on the season. Eight and seven record. We’re hoping to get the good version of Dino. Last time out, first couple of innings looked good, but then things uh the wheels started to come off. Uh so we’ll be keeping an eye on Kramer here. How you doing there, Charm City chat? We got Allan Piles here. Frank Baker, Andrea’s in here. Uh, just had surgery and in the hospital, folks. Uh, wish wish Andrea a speedy recovery, please. Uh, Chilo is here. Dan, Joe, William, Shawa, Snowball, Kurt M, Warren, Rod, William, Antonucci, Bam, uh, Darren, Richard. Let’s go. Ravens, Baxter, we get everybody, folks. Baseball is about to begin. Baseball is about to begin. It is a lot of sunshine out there, which means it’s probably really hot again today. Let’s see what the uh 96° in downtown Baltimore on this Sunday afternoon. Another hot one, folks. The baseball has been flying out of the ballpark during this home stand. The weather is ripe for balls to just keep on traveling. And we’ve seen a lot of home runs here in this uh series. First pitch of the ball game, the Joey Lopero is outside. Ball one. We’re underway. Dean Kramer, his next pitch is outside again. Just about the same spot. Two and 0. Two and 0. Let’s see if the scoreboard is up and working yet. 20 pitch check swing. They appeal and Lido did not go. Kramer has fallen behind. 3 and 0 to the leadoff man. Throw a get me over strike Dean. Let’s get back into this. There’s a strike outside corner at the knees. Three and one on Loper Fido who’s hitting 375. That ball is hit hard into right center field. It’ll get down. The Mullins will cut it off in the alley and hold Looper Lerido to a single. So the Blue Jays get the leadoff man on and Kramer immediately going to pitch from the stretch. Defensively for the Orioles, Cowser in left, Mullins in center, Carlson in right, Westber at third, Holiday at second, Gunnar at short, uh O’Harn at first, and Alex Jackson behind the plate. Here’s Ernie Clement. He takes a called strike. Clement hitting 278. Five homers, 31 driven in. This one’s fouled off to the right. 0 and21 on Clement. So, George Springer stays out of the lineup after taking that pitch to the face from uh Cade Straoud a couple of days ago. That was uh a scary moment. This ball’s lifted in the air to right field. Carlson is in the right spot. Just waiting on it. Makes the catch. One away. First out of the ball game for Kramer. Mr. Splash is already active out there in the bird bath. He is spraying the uh sections over there with water before uh we’ve even gotten up to hit. Guerrero goes after the first pitch, fouls it away. Vlad is hitting .293 and he has had great success against Kramer in the past. 11 hits and 31 at bats. Five of them have left the yard. He has taken Kramer deep five times. Pitch low and in one the count on Guerrero. The one-1 swinging a miss splitter from Kramer. Two strikes on Guerrero. Just getting started, folks. No score. Top of the first, one out. Runner at first base. Ground ball could end the inning. The one two to Guerrero. That one’s fouled back. Still a ball and two strikes. Folks, the ballpark today looks about as empty as ever. And this is not a makeup game or anything like that. This is a scheduled Wednesday getaway game. And uh there are not a whole lot of people here. It’s hot and it’s the middle of the day in the middle of the week. Here’s a ground ball to third. Westber goes to second. Holiday to first. Not in time to get to. Bit of a slow developing double play ball there. They tried to go around the horn. The Orioles do get the lead runner. It’ll be a fieldielder’s choice for Guerrero as he’ll take over at first base with two down. Bo Bashette. He’s hitting .292 on the season. It’s been a nice bounceback season for him compared to 2024. He looks at a splitter at the top of the zone for a called strike. 13 homers and 65 driven in for Bett. Kramer peers in for the sign. And after waiting a while, the batter Bett steps out of the box. Bette after getting nine straight hits and nine at bats, has only had one hit in his next eight. He pops this one up. It’s going to be one for nine as coming in to make the catch out there and right is Dylan Carlson. This inning is over. We go to the bottom of the first. The Blue Jays get a base hit. They strand one. Toronto nothing. And the Orioles are coming up. Folks, how you doing? All right. I need a lucky like right now. So hang on. and I’ll be right back. He met a strange friend in the Chesapeake Bay when the Charm City Chad, I’m happy to announce that yesterday’s uh yesterday was a historic day for the Orioles uh bird watcher channel. Baltimore, you are seeing history being made today. uh calling uh a pair of games. Uh we had we had a lot of viewers. We had about 6,500 viewers over the course of the day. Several hundred likes. Uh lots of watchtime hours. The whole shebang, folks. Not bad for a team uh that’s been in last place all season. All right, we are underway. Bottom of the first. Jackson Holiday takes up and in for ball one from Jose Bereios. We’ve seen Bereios plenty as a Blue Jay over the last several years. Holiday hits one into center field. It’s dropping and it’ll fall in. A leadoff single for Holiday on pitch number two. And just like that, the Orioles are in business. Defensively for the Blue Jays, Schneider and left, Straw and center, Loper Fido in right, Barger at third, Bette at short, Clement at second, Wagner at first, and Sanchez behind the plate. Here is Jordan Westber, folks. Well, West is that way. Pitch inside for ball one. Early bugle. A bugle just three pitches into the ball game might be a record. Here’s a swing and a miss on that slerve from Jose Bereios. That is his signature pitch. He has got a big breaking slerve that if you’re not looking for it can really make you look kind of foolish up there at the plate. This ball is in on West. This ball is going to be caught. A basket over the shoulder catch by the second baseman Clement running with his back to the infield and right center field. He takes a wouldbe uh blue pit away from Westber. Holiday retreats back to first. One away here in the bottom of the first. Here’s Gunnar Henderson, folks. His name’s Gunnar and he’s dating my mom. First a check on Holiday and he’s backstanding. Gunner’s hitting .283 a dozen homers, 42 RBI. He’s had about 10 RBI or somewhere close to it here during this home stand. And he takes low and away ball one. Mario peers over at first. Here’s the pitch. Gunner hits it to second. A throw away. Clement throws the ball the way into left field and Holiday will move up to third. Gunner up to second. The Blue Jay defense since late in the ball game yesterday has really looked shaky out there. Clement had just made a nice over the shoulder catch to get the previous out, but here he tries to spin and throw off balance to second and he throws that ball away into left field into right field into left field. Sorry. Second and third, one out. Here comes Adley Rutman, folks. Let the clutch out gently. Okay, first pitch is a strike. So, it should be a fieldielder’s choice and an error on the throw from Clement. Pitch to Rutman is outside. One ball, one strike. Second and third, one out here. The Orioles trying to get an early lead. And Rutchman chases a high pitch, a cutter above the zone. It’s one ball, two strikes. Come on, Adley. We need you to make contact, buddy. The one two to Adley. Swung on. And he got a piece of it. That cutter in on the hands. Adley stays alive. Still a ball in two strikes. Uh Charles is not a spammer, folks. Who’s uh accusing Charles of spamming? Uh Charles is okay, folks. Charles is a guest on many a playbyplay channel. He means well. He’s here to just uh spread some love. So, Charles is doing just fine. Uh Rutman with a 22 count. That is in the dirt. It’s a full count, folks. Wait, Frank. Frank, uh, just so you know, Frank, you’re you’re not a mod, okay? The mods can take care of modlike stuff, okay? You don’t even have to tell Charles he’s okay. I I already did. Okay, Frank, it’s a full count on Rutman. Second and third with one out. the pitch, check swing, foul, still three and two. Yeah, no offense, Frank, but that’s just that’s the reality. Uh it’s up to the mods to, you know, keep the rules in place and do all those things. Everybody else, like you, uh just sit back and enjoy the show. Okay. Payoff pitch. Another check swing foul ball from Rutman. Now we’re talking about a dating site. What is going on? Michael, are you acting a fool? Oh boy. It’s the first inning, folks. Try to try to contain yourself. Another 3-2 pitch. Rutman fouls it off again. Folks, we have got a battle going on right now. No worries, Frank. Just wanted to make sure you understood. There’s mods here for a reason. 3-2 pitch. This one’s hit in the air and deep to left center field. It’ll score a run. It’s caught out there on the warning track and walking home is Jackson Holiday. Folks, the Orioles. Another sack fly. Baltimore is your leading home for sacrifice flies. We had five in the game uh yesterday and we get one here in the first to take the lead. It’s one to nothing folks. Here’s Ryan O’Harn. And the first pitch is a tough strike call by the ump. That pitch looked outside. 0 and one on O’Harn. Flights on. It’s turn and burn. Runner at third base as Gunner was able to move up on that fly ball as well. So, O’Harn with a chance to get a two out RBI. He’s got an 02 count. Rios’s next pitch is low. One and two on O’Harn. He’s sitting 283. Is this his final game as an oral? We’ll have to wait. Find out. The one two pitch laid off again. It’s two and two. More bugle time. O’Harn asks for time. A run in for Baltimore here in the first. Another one at third base with two down. A two- two count on O’Harn. This will be the 22nd pitch from Bereios in the first. That ball is crushed right field. Get up. Get out. It bounces onto the flag court. By by birdie Ryan O’Harn. Could this be his legacy game? He’s off to a hell of a start. Home run number 13 to right field. It’s three nothing Baltimore. Oh, Hearn, let me Oh, hear you. Charm City chat. Oh ho ho. It’s magic. Three nothing Baltimore. And Michael, you seem to be a bit of a nuisance in the chat. He said something about bottoming for Mike Bordick. Now you’re a bottom for Ryan O’Harn. How about you bottom out of the chat? Take her easy, bud. Here is Colton Cowser. He takes a called strike. He already had an 01 count. I missed the first pitch. Get those cows up quick, folks. He’s behind 0 and2. Pitch, swing, and a miss. He chased that slerve in the dirt. Three pitch strike out of Cowser to end the inning. But the Orioles put up a crooked number in the first, capped off by a two-run bomb from Ryan O’Harn. Three runs on two hits and nobody left. We go to the second inning. It’s the Orioles three, the Blue Jays nothing. And sorry about that there, Michael. Let me uh bottom you out of my toilet. All right, folks. I’ll be right back. Don’t go anywhere. Bacon. Bacon. Where’s the bacon? I smell bacon. Bacon. Bacon. Got to be bacon. Only one thing smells like bacon. That’s bacon. Bacon. Bacon. Bacon. Bacon. There from that bag. What’s it say? I can’t read. Please, please give me what’s in the bag. Chewy, yummy, smoky bacon. Here you go. Oh boy. Oh boy. It’s bacon. No, it’s bacon strips. Brand dog snack from Pyina. Bacon strips. Dogs don’t know it’s not bacon. It’s bacon. Folks, welcome back to the Bird Watcher channel, home of the most disgusting playbyplay announcer on YouTube, me, BW. How you doing, everybody? Who do I think I am? And boy, am I disgusting. That’s been some of the feedback lately. Ah, that’s good. All right. This this song, this song again, days gone by. That song is going to put me in an early grave, folks. All right, top of the second inning. Addison Barger takes high for ball one from Kramer. Oh, I’m moody, too. Very moody. I’m a I’m disgusting and moody, folks. It just might be my time of the month. I don’t know. Two and0 on Barger pitch. That’s outside. 3 and 0. Come on, Dino. Find the zone here. There’s a strike. A three 0 cookie. Try some pamperin. All right, Dean stinks. All right. Not sure how respectful that was, but that’s ball four. Lead off walk to Barger. All right, Davis Schneider. He’s taking it one day at a time, folks. Runner at first, nobody out. First pitch strike to Schneider, hitting 223. Oh, scoreboard needs refreshing. Thank you. That pitch is right in the middle of the plate. It’s 0 and two, I guess. So O’Harn just wanted to keep his name up there after hitting that two-run bomb. Top of the second, runner at first, an 02 count on Schneider. And would you look at that? That ad keeps on pushing everything down. I’ll fix it here in a sec. Here’s the O2 to Schneider. Hit on the ground. Third base side. Foul. All right. If I fix you, are you going to stay in place? Are you going to pop back the other way? We’ll find out. There you go. 0 and2 on Schneider. Kramer from the belt and the pitch outside. One ball, two strikes. H. All right. Swing and a miss. Schneider strikes out on a cutter from Kramer. Sit down. Well, y’all come back now. You hear that? Cutter moved more from vertically than it did horizontally. Cutter looked more like a splitter. Here’s Will Wagner. That is a splitter. moving uh south, but it stays above the zone for ball one. Wagner hitting .239, no homers, seven RBI. Pitch low, 2 and 0. Heard Charlie Morton may be going to the Dodgers. Where’d you hear it, Edward? sources mean more than the rumors themselves. Two- pitch to Wagner. That’s a strike called on the outside edge. Kramer might have been given an extra inch there. We’ll take it. Two and one. Orioles playing in double play depth with one out and a runner at first. That ball’s fouled away. Two and two on Wagner. I never did find out who got ejected in the game yesterday from the Blue Jays. After arguing from the dugout, Adley puts up a high target. The pitch is a fast ball. Upper half of the zone. And this ball’s hitting the left center. Said Mullins is going to sprint and chase it down out there in the gap. Ah, that speed of Mullins. You can’t teach speed, folks. You can’t teach speed. Mullins makes a lot of plays look easy. that aren’t really that easy. Two down. Here’s Miles Straw YouTube. One of the Orioles podcasts. Okay, so just random people chatting and speculating about something. I mean, if they’re talking, if they’re sitting there and going, you know, Charlie Morton would make a good fit for the Dodgers, that to me isn’t a rumor that he’s going to the Dodgers. Like, I need to hear something. the Dodgers have been in contact with Mike Elias or something to that effect. Uh one- one pitched a straw, swung on a miss. It’s one and two. They call them trade rumors for a reason, folks. We all know how rumors work. One, two, pitch, low and away, two and two. And Edward, I’m not trying to pick on you, buddy. It’s just sort of my policy when it comes to sharing uh news. I’d like to know just how credible the uh the news is. Uh 22 pitch is off the plate. Full count on straw. Mustafa. Oh, Mustafa, I hope you’re doing better today, buddy. Are you mean to tell me we got 224 people here right now already? Wow. I haven’t even checked in on it. Here’s another 3-2 pitch. Hit on the ground. Foul. We’ll do it again. Miles Straw with an extended at bat. Two down. Runner at first. Yeah, folks. I mean, if those numbers are right, let’s get those likes up lickety split. Folks, just a friendly reminder, I haven’t brought it up yet. Tap that thumbs up at the bottom of your screen, please. We’re only at 54 likes. That’s not even onethird of the audience right now. So, there’s a ton of you out there that could just take one brief second, tap that thumb, and make that number go up quick. Pretty please with sugar on top. Your boy BW has been grinding hard here for the past few days, and the results have been great. Keep up the good work, and I promise I will, too. This ball’s lifted high in the air and deep by Straw going back. I don’t believe it. The light hitting Miles Straw has just hit a home run to left field. A home run that wouldn’t have reached the warning track in left field here last season. It just clears the wall of the new dimensions out there for a two-run homer. It is Orioles three, Toronto two. And I got to look, I don’t think Miles Straw has ever hit more than three homers in a season. This guy does not hit home runs. Unbelievable. Last guy I would have thought would get a home run. Miles Straw. Alli Sanchez is up. He takes a strike. Two down, bases empty. Two runs in. He’s got a 330 slug. There you go. Tells you what you need to know. Uh, Straw has been in the league since 2018 in his highest home run total in any season. That was a season in which he played 158 games had 638 played appearances, four home runs. He’s got seven home runs in his career. Over the span of a eight-year career, he’s averaging less than one home run per season. And he hits one here. Just to give you an idea of how unexpected that was. The only thing missing was that if he was batting ninth and did that to us. Swing and a miss. Sanchez strikes out to win the inning. Well, y’all come back now. Are you here? The Blue Jays get back into it by a run after a two-run homer from the lightest hitting batter maybe in the entire damn American League. Miles Straw goes deep. I can’t believe it. Bottom of the second coming up, Baltimore three, Toronto two. Folks, if that’s if that doesn’t tell you how the ball is flying out of the yard this week with the hot weather, uh I don’t know what better example to give you, folks. This just came down the pike uh in the previous hour after I’ve gone on the air. Uh Wellington Erisina, the Orioles number 20 prospect, scheduled to make his debut for the organization tonight. Listed as the starter for Single A Delm Marva. He’s one of the two pitchers that came over from that deal with the Mets that sent over Gregory Sodto. Stop. He’s a pro. Stop. What? When am I supposed to stop? Are you talking about Miles Straw and how I’m just pointing out that it’s kind of crazy that he hit a two-run homer when he averages less than one home run per year? What did I say that’s worth stopping? Those are the facts. It kind of hurts to give up a home run to a guy that hits less than one a year, right? Yes. What? What do you want me to stop and why? Said Mullins is in the on deck circle waiting to hit to lead off the bottom of the second inning. He was due. Okay, makes sense. I guess uh Bartolo Cologne was due when he hit his home run, too. Makes sense. All right, Mullins. He’s hitting 226, 15 homers, 49 driven in. First pitch is a called strike on the outside edge from Bereos. Well, at least one of us had a good one. This pitch is fouled away. No balls and two strikes. Massen is giving us said Mullen’s career profile almost as if to tell you that this is the last game he’s going to play as an oral. I mean, don’t get me emotional here. Here’s a ground ball to first and Wagner will take it to the bag unassisted. Out number one in the bottom of the second. Dylan Carlson is coming up next. Folks, this ballpark is uh very much empty. Utah Street looks like uh the Old West. It’s a dust bowl out there right now. Here’s a foul ball from Carlson. 0 and one. Dylan Carlson’s hitting .228, four homers and 15 RBI. Switch hitter batting from the left side takes a change up away and the count is one and one. Next pitch reached for and poked out toward the opposite field. It’s going to hang up there. Easy catch for the second out. Davis Schneider patrolling left field makes the catch. One of the finer mustaches in all of baseball. Davis Schneider. Credit where it’s due, Davis. That’s a good stash. Here’s Alex Jackson. He’s doing the catching here. Second day in a row he’s had a chance to start in the lineup and catch thanks to the double header yesterday. Swinging a miss here on the first pitch. It’s 0 and one. Pitch inside. Count even up. Last two uh starts against Baltimore. Burios has gotten lit up. Jackson uh with a little squibber foul off to the right. It’s two strikes with two out, nobody on here in the bottom of the second. Man, if there’s 10,000 people here, I would be surprised. This is a very small crowd. Probably more people in the splash zone than anywhere else. One two pitch is in the dirt. This pitch is in on the hands of Jackson. He fouls it off. A protective swing if ever there was one. It’s still two and two. Chris, did you get your hands on one of those Hawaiian shirts? I will say this, the shirt is designed in such a way where I’m sure you could get all kinds of stains on it and nobody would even notice. You know, you drop some uh you take a bite into a crabcake sandwich and you got some cocktail sauce, dribble out and hit you on the shirt. Nobody would even know. It would just blend right in. Here’s a ground ball to third. Barger with a nice pick and throw across the diamond to end the inning. Orioles go quietly here in the second. On to the third. Baltimore 3, Toronto 2. Got a pretzel hot dog with chili. Now, what is a pre Wait, are you saying got a pretzel and then also a hot dog with chili or is it a hot dog that’s made out of pretzel? Or is it a pretzel? Is it a pretzel-shaped hot dog? What are we talking about here? The bun is a pretzel. Ah, gotcha. That makes sense. There you go, folks. I love American food. Every American food item is some sort of Frankenstein’s monster. Every stuffed crusts and what was that thing KFC had at one point? the KFC double down where it was like two chicken patties that were basically the buns and then you had more meat in between. Crab cake pretzel dogs. Yeah. You know, I got to tell you folks whatever whatever happened to just good oldfashioned regular food. We’re always trying to experiment. I think everything went crazy ever since John Madden kept going on about that turduckan thing way back in the day. Once we had this idea of shoving a duck inside a chicken and shoving that chicken inside of a turkey. I think uh we’ve all gone a little bit crazy when it comes to these uh Frankenstein like uh food items. You know, we’re always stuffing stuff into other stuff. It’s a little weird, folks. A little bit weird. All right, Joey Loper Fido leads off the top of the third. First pitch swinging, fouls it away. Franklin Beans. Lerido singled his first time up. Pitch is low. One ball, one strike. Lido is one for one. Led up the ball game with a hit. Yeah, I think it all goes back to the turducken. I I know. Yeah, I know it’s older than the years of Madden, but it was the Madden years, those Thanksgiving games and talking about the turducken. I really think that’s when America just started going overboard with these like things stuffed inside of other things. I’ll leave it at that, folks. We got a 22 ball uh 22 count, excuse me, on Loper Fidito leading off the top of the third. Boom. You you you you take the duck and then you you stuff it inside the chicken and you stuff the chicken inside of a turkey and boom. You got a real meal. Swing and a miss. Loper feed goes down on strikes. Well, y’all come back now. You hear? Well, you all come back now. You hear? Went out in the third. Turducken. There’s a called strike. Turducken is a scam. I love a good call back joke. Thank you. Bees knees. Clement at the plate. He’s got an 01 count. Make it 0 and2. He fouls it away. Kramer’s about to throw his 50th pitch of the afternoon with one out in the third. Cornish. Don’t get me started on Cornish Hens called strike three. Sit down. Well, y’all come back now. You hear? Kramer looks like he’s starting to settle in here. Look at the late tailing action on this pitch. Looked like it was going away off the plate to Clement and then it came back like a girlfriend who you thought was leaving and next thing you know she’s back knocking on your door. Here’s Guerrero. He takes a first pitch strike. Two down, bases empty. The 01 to Vlad. There’s a strike. 0 and2 Dino. Come on, buddy. Make it a quick inning. You deep fried and boom. Delicious. That pitch is low and away. One ball, two strikes. You know, you come around the opposite uh blind side. Uh it’s a delayed blitz and then boom, you got a turducken. onetwo pitch low and away. It’s two and two. Come on, Dino. Frank, you might want to give another crack at that joke. Two two pitch. That one’s crushed into left center. Get down. Don’t get out. It will stay in the yard. It bounces off the center field wall for a two out double for Guerrero. Well, that’s the best case scenario when you’re going to give up give up an extra base hit to Guerrero. There’s two down and there’s nobody on and it’s a double. You got a chance to work around this. Frank. Okay, I’ll stick with your joke, but I have to read it exactly the way it’s written in order for this joke to really land. Here’s a Bo Bashette. First pitch is fouled away. Why the girl bring a later in school? because she wanted to go to high school. A later, folks. A later. That pitch is a little bit outside. That was a close call there. Borderline pitch goes Toronto’s way. One ball, one strike on Bette. Guerrero at second with two out. Pitch outside. The count is two and one. You see, Frank, your your jokes a hit. Everybody loves the joke. Two-1 pitch. It’s all about the delivery, Frank. And also, you might need to work on how to detect sarcasm. Pitch number 60 on the afternoon coming up to Bashette and Kramer steps off the rubber. The 22 hit on the ground. Second base. Couple of bounces and Bette will be thrown out to end the inning. Kramer works around a two out double by Guerrero. And the Orioles keep this one-run lead. As we go to the bottom of the third, it’s the Orioles three, Toronto two. Folks, I got to check in with everybody because look, and I’m telling you, Charm City Chat, I’m going to need everybody else’s help here right now. We’ve got over 200 people. They’ve been here since the start. So, there really is no reason at this stage for the like count to still be a double-digit number. Let’s get those likes up to over a hundred and then some. Let’s go. Charm City chat, those who have not hit the like button, they may not want to hear it from me. Maybe I’m too abrasive. Maybe I don’t know how to butter them up. I need you guys to convince those folks out there that it’s a good thing. We’re a community. We’re trying to grow this thing. We all got to pitch in. All right. So, take a look there. You nonlike button hitters. Take a look at the chat right now. If you don’t believe me, listen to everybody else. So, we’ve got over 3,000 subscribers here. And if you’re not subscribed, I hope you join us there as well. It’s free. There’s no commitment, no obligation. No salesman will visit your home.

You don’t have to check the paper or open up an app. You’ll just know. There’s all kinds of good reasons to subscribe. And again, it’s free. Uh there’s really not a whole lot of downside. Here’s Jackson Holiday leading off the bottom of the third. First pitch is ball one. Holiday had a base hit to lead off the bottom of the first. Next pitch, uh that is a strike. One-on-one. Holiday reaches for one below the zone, fouls it at the plate. A ball and two strikes. Thank you, Don Rock. We are just three likes away from hitting a 100, folks. Meanwhile, the over 200 people that were here has fallen down to 173. I guess some people are like, uh, you mean I got to either hit the like button or leave? I guess I’ll leave. Holiday with a fly ball to the opposite field. Schneider out in left field makes the catch. One down in the bottom of the third. folks. We got over 300 likes yesterday’s combined between the two games. A historic day for the channel. All thanks to support. It takes everybody’s help to pitch in. Here’s Westber. He swings and misses at the first pitch. Westberg popped out his first time up West is that way. Change up is low. One ball, one strike. Westber had a three hit game uh in one of the games yesterday. I think it was a three hit game. Maybe he had a four hit game. No, he had back-to-back three hit games. That’s what it was. first time in his career in this series, back-to- back three hit games. So, his average is climbing. He’s got a 2-1 count. One out, nobody on in the bottom of the third. He takes a slur in the dirt. Three and one. Three and one to Westber. For me, even with the bases empty, that means bugle time. The pitch swung on and fouled away. That would have been ball four. Pitch in on the hands. Full count. Sears sucker. What are they talking about on the Mass and Broadcast? Payoff pitch swung on and missed. A change up low and in and Westber came up empty. Two down in the inning. Gunner Henderson do up next. Cowser’s Corral promo is just 7 away. Somebody remind me what this is going to entail. Gunner hits a ball off the end of the bat. It’s going to flop into right field for a bloop hit. A two out dunk in the right by Gunner. Keeps the inning alive. Wouldn’t mind seeing Gunner try to put himself into second base with a steel attempt here with two down. You got Rutchman at the plate. Rutman pops it straight up. Gunner never had time to try to steal a base. It’ll be popped up and caught at second base to end the inning. Gunner with a two out single. He’s stranded. The Orioles have only left that one man on base so far. We’re on to the fourth inning. The Orioles have a 3-2 lead. We have hit 100 likes, folks. Right on the nosy. Thank you so much for helping out and I want to thank you very much for that. I really do. All that being said, if you think I’m going to stop trying to get that number to go up more, you’re crazy. 100 likes, there was a day where we were satisfied with that. But that was back when we were getting about half as many people watching as we are now. So, the new goal is a minimum of 150. That’s where we are now, folks. Now, I’ll leave it alone here for a couple of innings. Everybody’s pitched in and uh I don’t want to annoy people too much, so let’s just drop it for now. Thanks for getting to 100. We’ll make a push to 150 in a little while. All right. Do I have any kind of a snack here? I don’t think that I do. I don’t know what I’m going to do with my time off because uh I did get a few hours of sleep in before waking up to call this game tonight. It’ll probably end about 2:00 in the morning or so. I don’t know. I should go right back to sleep, but then I don’t have to worry about anything for a couple of days. I I’m thinking I might just stay awake until I’m so exhausted that I pass out and I’m going to sleep all the way through. It could be 10 hours, 12 hours. Who knows? Just sleep until I can’t sleep anymore. Wake up and I’ll still have a little bit of time before Friday afternoon in Chicago. Here’s Addison Barger. 01 pitch is outside. One ball, one strike. Barger drew a walk his first time up. Kramer comes back with a splitter and gets a swing and a miss. Dino’s gotten through three innings. Hasn’t been all that sharp. Three hits and two walks in those three innings. But he has struck out four guys. Make it five guys. Five guys. Burger and fries, folks. Kramer with a splitter. Half a foot off the plate and he gets Barger to swing at it. See you later. Well, y’all come back now. Are you here? You ain’t hitting that one, my friend. Sit down. Here’s Davis Schneider. Holy cow. There’s a super chat coming in, folks. Schneider takes a pitch up and in for ball one. Andrea is back. This isn’t a magic membership. Andrea’s mixing it up today. Message for you, son. Message for you, son. Hi, guys. My iPad won’t let me send a membership. So, here BW, get a snack. So happy the channel is flourishing. Back to my IV fentinil and I need a nap. Folks, please send some love and support to Andrea with some kind words her way as she is uh uh coping with her medical uh issues. Uh wish her well, please. Uh, I hope you’re going to get out and uh off that IV uh soon there, Andrea. Thank you for your support. Just listen in and I hope you enjoy the ball game. Okay. Uh, curveball to Schneider on a one-1 on a 0 on a 02 pitch is high. One ball, two strikes. Sorry, got a little bit tongue tied there. There you go, Andrea. Everybody’s wishing you well. This ball’s hit in the air by Schneider to center. Mullins will take a few steps to his right, make the catch. All right, look at the love coming through Charm City chat for Andrea right now, folks. Can you feel the love? And I want to thank you very much for that. I really do. Will Wagner takes a pitch a foot outside ball one. We’re going to try to sweep these Blue Jays for you today, Andrea. Two and 0 here on Wagner. Next pitch off the plate. 3 and 0. Really no reason to fall behind. 3 and 0 with two out, nobody on to a guy like Will Wagner. Come on, Dino. There is a strike outside edge. That pitch is low. It’s ball four. Two out walk to Wagner. That’s a no no. Andrea, just let me know if there’s anything I can do while I’m on the stream here to uh show my thanks. You know how I do. If you want an impression, if you want some bad karaoke, whatever you know that’s within the realm of realistic for what limited resources I have over here, just let me know. It’s on the house. Andrea, whatever. I can do make her day a little bit better. Miles Straw has an 01 count. He lifts one to right. Coming in on it and making the catch out there is uh who is that? Carlson. Who the hell’s in right field? Yeah, Carlson with the catch in right and the inning is over. We go to the bottom of the fourth. with the Orioles as they have since the top of the second inning still lead it three-2. Oh, the eyebrow raise. Oh, okay. That’s very specific. All right, folks. Please let me indulge. Andrea, here it comes. I can’t really I can’t bounce back and forth anymore. Only the right one I have total control over. There you go. All right. Fantastic. And I want to thank you very much for that. I really do. Now, Andrea, remind me again. You are a White Socks fan or a Cubs fan. Which is it? I believe it’s the Cubs. Now, if you’re a Cubs fan, then you should be very excited. There you go. Cubs fan. You should be very excited and be here for the uh three games coming up this weekend starting Friday afternoon. That’s right. Hey everybody, Harry Carry coming at you. Got a threeame series against the Baltimore Orioles. Here’s Manny Malo. Oh, it’s going to be fun this weekend. Hey, Arie, get a shot of that girl over there in the bleachers with a giant knockers. Ah, nothing beats fun at the old ballpark. Ryan O’Harn’s at the plate. First pitch is ball one. He’s got a two-run homer in the game. And that is the difference. Pitch is low. Two and0 on O’Harn. Lights on. It’s turn and burn. Here’s Andre Galla. There’s a called strike. Tough call there. It looked a bit outside. Two and one on O’Harn. By the way, that was Andre Galaraga. But according to Harry, it’s Andre G. Two and two on O’Harn. Pitch is oh a called strike three. Bottom of the zone. O’Harn goes down looking. One out in the fourth. Folks, get those cows up in the chat. Last time up, Cowser was out on three pitches. Let’s try to help him out with some cows in the chat. There’s a first pitch strike. Tough pitch. It’s 0 and one on Cowser. Oh, sorry. We should have been over here for a while. That pitch is outside. 0 and2. I’m sorry. They’re saying it’s one and one. Where was the strike or where, excuse me, where was the ball? I mean, a one-1 pitch. Oh, the ball was outside. You know what? Never mind. BW just uh had a brain failure for about 10 seconds. The count is two and one on Cowser. I promise you that is true. Colton lifts off to right field. Oh, it sounded so good off the bat. It’s a routine fly ball. Excuse me. I’m just going to forget I ever attempted to do playbyplay for this last batter because I screwed up about three times. Man, oh man, the crack of the bat nearly blasted my eardrums. Uh, and that ball only just a routine fly to right. Two down. Said Mullins at the plate. He shows bunt. He gets it down. Bare-handed pickup at third and the throw is wild. Mullins will not advance to second, but said lays down a two out bunt for a hit. He knew what to do. Use that speed. said Barger had to charge and boy that throw was way the hell off. He’s lucky that Mullins is still only at first base although hopefully in a moment he will be at second. steal that base. Said pitch here is outside and it looked like a purpose pitch outside to try to help the catcher. Kind of like a pitch out. Mullen says 14 swipes on the season. Next pitch to Carlson is fouled back. One and one the count, folks. Let’s get set in the scoring position. Come on. One count. If you wait any longer, you might not have a chance. Set is not going. The pitch is hit on the ground. Second baseman will handle it after the first baseman missed it. And the pitcher covering the bag will make the put out to win the inning. Mullins grounds out four to one. Excuse me, not Mullins. Mullins is stranded after a 4 to one ground out to win the inning. All right, folks. Where are we at now? Going into the fifth inning, it’s still 3-2 Baltimore. Still 3 to2 Baltimore. Are we just four games behind Tampa to get the hell out of last place? Is that right, folks? Dare to dream. Dare to dream. We need some more offense, though, folks. We’re back to well over 200 people here. And that means I’m going to try to persuade some of you folks out there, asking you as kindly as I can. If you are watching right now, I want you to enjoy the content. It’s free. It’s here for you whenever you want. I call every Orioles game. I haven’t missed one yet since the channel started. In fact, we’ll be coming up on 300 straight games called uh within the next month, couple of weeks. Uh so do me a favor. I will make a deal with you. I will give you three hours of content giving you the best possible play call I can with all the passion, enthusiasm, energy, and knowledge that I can. And in exchange, I ask one thing. Tap that thumbs up at the bottom of your screen. Okay. Is that a deal? I think that’s a good deal. All right. So, whatever this Cowser’s Corral thing is is currently being uh debuted. What are we doing with this? Cowser’s Corral, folks, is apparently uh open for business. What it all means, I’m honestly not sure. Maybe somebody in the chat can explain. It’s a section a section that I guess where you get a free hat if you buy a ticket there. Other than that, I don’t know what the deal is. Sanchez ground ball and he he gets a base hit to the right side. Man, oh man. Another number nine hitter doing damage against the Orioles. That is a leadoff single for the number nine hitter and a one-run ball game. Ah, this is going to be okay, Kevin. I’ve seen enough. This is going to be an anxietyfilled inning already. We got to get through the top of the order now. Joey Lopero takes outside ball one. Kramer is on 78 pitches. That ball’s blasted to right center, but it’s right there for who’s in right. Carlson is in left. No, Carlson’s in right. Cowser’s in left. I don’t know why I can’t keep track of that. Carlson makes the catch. And I’m doing a bad job of reading the ball off the bat today. Maybe they’ve just got it miked a little bit louder, but everything sounds like it’s hit hit harder than it really is. Ernie Clement, 0 for two, takes low for ball one. Runner at first, one out. Top of the fifth. How about a double play ball outside? 2 and 0. Clement is a very aggressive hitter at the plate. He sees less pitches per plate appearance than anybody else in baseball. An average of just over three pitches per plate appearance. He is up there to hack. He didn’t like the strike call on 20. It’s two and one now. Next pitch fouled back. Oh, well maybe not back as Ryan O’Harn was a couple of feet away from making that catch. It gets into the dugout or camera well area on the first base side. O’Harn tried to reach in there, but uh it’ll be a foul ball. The count is two and two on Clement. Double play depth here for the Orioles with a one out. Runner at first. Pitch from Kramer. Line drive. It’s a fair ball down in the left field corner. And we got to hurry up and get this ball in. The ball is in. It’s runners at second and third with one out. The Blue Jays have the tying run 90 ft away, the go-ahead run at second base. 21st double for Clement. And with an off day tomorrow, I would hope Manelino is going to be uh ready to have a replacement for Kramer sooner rather than later. Dean might be able to get out of this inning, but I don’t know if he’s going to be able to go more than five. Here comes Drew French to have a chat. Kramer’s up to 84 pitches. Wow, that’s Oh, I thought Kramer had walked away. I thought for some reason French was given the go ahead to make the bullpin move, but Kramer was just picking something up off the ground there. He faked me out. I thought he was walking out of the game. Folks, don’t forget about the Oral Park Premium Club opening up next year where you can sit somewhere way away from the action on the field, pay 20 bucks for a cup of Starbucks, and pose for pictures for your Instagram to show everybody that you’re overpaying for what amounts to a seat in an airplane waiting lounge. Uh, instead of sitting your ass in a real seat at the ballpark, here’s Vlad Guerrero. Oh man, I didn’t realize we had Guerrero up in this spot. What do you do? First pitch is ball one. You got second and third. First base is open. I think you kind of got to put Guerrero on here. I think you got to pitch around Guerrero. There is a danger in doing it. Guerrero reaches for one and pokes it into left field. My goodness, that’ll score the tying run. That’s why you have to pitch around him. I mean, that ball was not even in the zone. A low pitch from Kramer and Guerrero went down and just served it with one hand into left field. A one-handed swing. Unbelievable. You just have to put him on base there. Here comes Bo Bashette. It’s a tie ball game. Three apiece. Grant Wolfram is the pitcher getting up for the Orioles in the pen. Not necessarily the guy I was hoping to see get up. All right, we need a double play ball like nobody’s business. Popped up by Bette to left field. This will probably get the go-ahead run in. Cowser though, he’s coming in. He pretended it was deep. Let’s test the arm. The throw is there. He’s safe. He can’t be safe. You challenge that play. Get on the phone. Cowser with a strike to home plate. He tried to trick the Jays. He was playing deep and then sprinted in a good 20 yards to get the momentum up to get off a strong throw. Jackson was there at the plate. We finally didn’t drop the ball on a play there. That ball looked like it got there in time. The tag is down. He’s out. Give me a break. If he’s safe, the world is not fair. He is out. challenge this. Oh, Colton Cowser, you deserve it, buddy. You deserve it for that play out there, that throw. Please overturn this. You got to call him out. Look at that. Freeze it right there and tell me what are you smoking, ump, you’re right there. How did you call him safe? Cowser’s throw from the outfield was 96 and a half miles an hour on a strike right to home plate. I mean, I’m telling you, Cowser did everything perfect. Just give it to him. I’m going to be so pissed if they don’t overturn this. Everybody between Cowser and Jackson did everything perfectly right. Ben McDonald seems convinced that uh the runner is out. I’m convinced. It’s going to be a long look at this. I guess time for a lucky. The runner is out, folks. Oh, I told you. I saw it with the naked eye in real time. Colton Cowser. Oh, what a magical play to prevent the go-ahad run from scoring and end the inning. O R I O L E S. Besides that, it’s all in the reflexes. Holy cow, folks. Get those cows up in the chat. I’m telling you right now, if Cowser had played that ball conventionally, had just camped under it shallow where it was hit, I don’t think that runner tries to tag and score. Cowser, he pulled a little bit of a trick. He played deep on that ball. He knew he had time to let that ball just stay in the air. Pretend like it was hit deeper and then came charging in to make the catch. All that momentum and energy then put into that arm of his. A strike to the plate. Man oh man was that pretty. What a great great play. all around great play. That’s just that’s just not executing something athletic. That’s also a high baseball IQ play. The whole the whole thing. The whole thing from Cowser on that one, folks. Let’s go. All right, let’s get this lead back. We’re in the bottom of the fifth inning and first pitch swinging and missing is Alex Jackson. We’ve got the number nine hitting catcher due up and then top of the order after that. Jackson fouls this one back. It’s 0 and2. Last name Jackson at the plate. First name Jackson on deck. The O2 from Bereos. Slurve breaks low and outside. Ball one. the one two. Another slur. This one not as far out of the zone, but still finishes well off the plate. Jackson lays off. It’s a 2-2 count. The pitch up and in. Full count on Jackson, folks. Come on. Get that lead off man. Number nine hitter on base and we’re in business. It was 0 and2 on Jackson. He’s worked it to a full count here. Holiday waiting on deck. The payoff pitch. That ball is lined in the left. Keep going back. That ball is up and against the base of the wall. It dies there. And that will be another extra base hit for Alex Jackson. All he does is hit for extra bases. His fifth double. A leadoff double. The go-ahead run in scoring position, folks. Nobody out. Splash it up. Splish. And here’s the top of the order. It’s holiday time, folks. Holiday takes off the plate outside for ball one. That was 108.5 off the bat of Jackson. Man, he is really impressing with his uh with his bat. Holiday fouls this one away late on a cutter. One ball, one strike. Come on, Charm City. We want this lead back now. Activity in the Blue Jay pen. This pitch is hit on the ground. That’s going to move the runner up. It’s a productive out for Holiday. A ground ball on the right side moves Jackson Alex that is to third. So, Holiday, a little bit of small ball, folks. Anybody in the mood for another sack fly to take a lead? What do you say? Sanchez is out to have a chat with Bereios. Westber is due up next. They might be talking about Westberg doing something a little bit tricky. Maybe laying one down. Maybe a maybe a suicide squeeze. Who knows? Westber is 0 for two today. The Blue Jay bullpen so far in this series has pitched 14 innings and given up 26 hits and 18 runs. They’ve been absolutely battered. Westber first pitch swinging. That’s going to be a sack fly at least. That ball’s still going and it’s gone. by by birdie. Who needs a sackfly? Westber goes all the way. It’s a dozen homers on the season for Westy and the Orioles get the lead back. It’s five to three. The home runs keep on flying. Magic, you know. folks. We’ve knocked them out of the game. With that, Bereos is knocked out of the ball game. The Blue Jays will be going to the bullpen. West is that way, folks. West is that way. West is that way. This game is a scam, folks. The Orioles, do they have it in them? Can they sweep the first place Blue Jays in a fourgame series? Folks, I don’t care who you are. I don’t care if you got the best record in the league or the worst. Sweeping a division opponent in a four game series is not easy to do. It is not easy to do. And here we are in a position to pull it off. Can we do it? Can we do it? I sure would like to. My oh my. Westber goes yard. That’s my boy, folks. You veteran bird watchers out there, you know Westber’s my boy. I swear every time he goes yard, it always seems to be in a nice clutch spot. Gunner Henderson is due up. We’ve got a new pitcher out here. Looks like a lefty. Brandon Little. Is that who it is? Brandon Little making his 51st appearance. 2.64 ERA. First pitch to Gunner is low and outside. His name’s Gunner and he’s dating my mom. Bases are empty after the home run. It’s 5 to3 Orioles with one out. Swing and a miss. It’s one ball, one strike. Gunner asks for time. Little back from the belt and that pitch is low. Two balls and a strike on Henderson. Folks, I don’t want to get anybody too crazy, but uh here’s a ground ball to second. and Gunner will be retired for the second out. I don’t want anybody to, you know, lose their minds or anything, but uh if we hold on to this lead, the Orioles will finish this home stand with a record of 51 in 58. Seven games under 500. Should the Rays lose today, uh, we’ll be three games behind them. Could we get our asses out of the basement, folks? Here’s Adley Rutman. First pitch is a strike. Let the clutch out gently. Okay. 01 pitch is fouled off to the left. 0 and2 on Rutchman. He is 0 for one, but he has driven in a run on a sack fly back in the first 02 pitch in the dirt. That ball landed about 2 feet in front of home plate. Grant Wolfram continues to warm up for Baltimore in the pen. One ball, two strikes on Adley. Next pitch outside on a curve ball. Two and two. The 2-2 pitch, swinging a miss. That cutter moving sharply in on Adley. No chance for contact and the inning is over. But the Orioles get the lead right back after the Blue Jays had tied it up in the top of the fifth. A two-run homer by Westber gives us a two-run lead at the end of five. It’s the Orioles five and the Blue Jays three. All right, folks. I need to get up and move around a little bit. Starting to feel some aches and pains. So, hang out and I will be back after a minute of walking around. Thank you. He met a strange friend in the Chesapeake Bay. All right, Grant Wolf is on. The Orioles have made a pitching change. Kramer is done after five innings. First pitch from Wolfram is fouled away by Barger. We are in the top of the sixth, folks. Baltimore trying to pull off the impossible. A fourame sweep of the first place Blue Jays. That’s a strike. 0 and2. Hey everybody, this is Wolfman Jack. 02 pitch to Barger. Swing and a miss. Top of the zone with a sinker. A three pitch strikeout to begin the sixth for Wolfram. A positive sign. Well, y’all come back now. You hear? Well, y’all come back now. You hear? Boy, we could sure do with a clean one, two, three inning from Wolfram, couldn’t we? Here is Davis Schneider. He takes up and away with a fast ball. Schneider is 0 for two. Strike out and a fly out. That ball’s hit in the air to right. Long run. It’s going to drop though in foul territory. Just a few feet down the right field line. Foul ball on Schneider. Five innings for Kramer. He gave up six hits and two walks. Three earned runs, struck out five. It’s not the prettiest line, but it could be enough to get him a win. One and one on Schneider pitch. That’s high. That’s right, Froggy. A three pitch strike out of the first batter. Two-1 pitch is high again. Not close. A curve ball that never curved. It’s three and one. There’s a called strike. He gets a sinker at the top of the zone. The count runs full and Schneider wants time. payoff pitch. Too high is a walk. Wolram issues a one out walk. Well, he’s obligated to face one more batter. I don’t have a whole lot of trust in Wolram. We got a two-run lead. If he gives up one more base runner, I want to see somebody else. Here’s Will Wagner and he takes a called strike. I’m sorry, Will Wagner has been pinch hit for. It’s Leo Jimenez at the plate in the hit for Wagner and the 01 pitch is fouled. Ball rolls back to the back stop. It’s 0 and2 on Leo Jimenez. Pinch hitting for Wagner here. One out, runner at first. Top of the sixth. the 02 from Warram back. That’s right. The Blue Jays not only are without Anthony Santandere at the moment, they’re also without their second baseman, Andre Jimenez. This ball’s lifted to left. Going to stay playable for Cowser. He makes the catch. Two down in the inning. Runner retreats to first base. One more out to get Grant. One more out, my friend. It’s Miles Straw who’s got a home run in the ball game. Probably the weirdest thing to happen in this whole damn series. And there’s been a few weird things. There is a first pitch strike. Two down, runner at first. 01 the straw outside with the fast ball. No Alejandro Kirk either. That’s right. That pitch is inside. Two balls, one strike. So, the Blue Jays, I can’t tell you myself how long the likes of Kirk and Jimenez and Santandere have been out, but they came into this series red-hot without apparently those players in the lineup. That 2-1 pitch is in the dirt. Three and one now. the count. Let’s not fiddle around with straw. Give him a pitch to hit. That ball’s hit to right. Backing up. Still backing up and a leaping grab at the wall. It goes uncaught. Coming all the way around to score is Davis Schneider. It is a two out RBI double for Miles Straw. What in the world? Straw with two extra base hits and three RBI in the game. And I’m telling you right now, if Grant Wolf can’t keep Miles Straw from hitting an opposite field ball off the wall, we need to get another guy in the ball game here. Drew French is out to talk to Wolfram. Number nine hitter Alli Sanchez, the catcher, is due up next. It was a tough play out there to make that catch at the wall. I I can’t really blame uh Carlson out there. I think if Carlson gets a ball hit that way 10 times, he probably makes that catch five out of 10. Maybe a guy like a cowser can do it about seven or eight out of 10 times. Mullins nine out of 10 times or something. It was not an easy play. Yinier Canó is up in the Orio bullpen. Two down, runner at second. Sanchez, the batter, first pitch, swung on and missed. He got a sinker right down the middle at 96. No, that wasn’t an error. That was definitely not an error. Pitch up and away. One ball, one strike. Richard, are you attempting to smack talk me? Bro, you’ve had your ass handed to you the first three games. If we were to even lose this game, you guys came in here and stunk it up in this series. But you’re going to try to sm you’re going to ask me how I like them apples. Really? All right. There, Will Hunting, why don’t you go do another uh tough math problem on the chalkboard. One, two pitch is grounded. Foul. We’ll do it again. 22 pitches from Wolfram in the inning. Flu Hardy, a lefty, is up in the Blue Jay bullpen. One-two pitch lifted in the air. Center field. Mullins is going back. He’s still going back. He leaps. Did he get it? Did he get it? He did. Said Mullins just went bananas. He climbed the wall 2 feet higher than he did yesterday. An absolute robbery. Unbelievable. Maybe his best catch ever. said Mullins does it again. He robs a wouldbe go ahead home run. Hey Richard Torres. Hey Richard. How do you like them apples? Man, that apple is delicious. nom. Oh, sorry. I I got a seed. H. Let me get this seed out. H. Yeah. You know what, pal? I like them apples. I like them a lot. the nerve and the instant retribution. Oh my goodness, folks. You can’t script it any better than that. Ah, Richard’s being a good sport about it. I’ll give you credit there, buddy. Richard’s being a good sport about it. Uh, did we just hit the seventh inning stretch? No, it’s a bottom of the sixth. Okay, bottom of the sixth coming up. Two hour mark though. Thank you, Froggy. Said Mullins. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. I can’t believe he caught that one. I can’t believe he caught that one. That was the toughest one yet. I don’t know how many guys can do what he just did. Uh, I’m sure it can only be counted on one hand. Just amazing. Said Mullins, I mean, thank you for so many dazzling plays that make me feel like I’m eight years old again watching a superhero out there. Unbelievable. Bottom of the sixth coming up. Mullins is in the hole. He’ll be due up to hit in the inning. Right now it’s Ryan O’Harn and he takes a first pitch strike. O’Harn, Cowser, and Mullins. All lefties do up against the lefty Flu Hardy on the mound. Check swing and O’Harn went around. It’s 0 and two. Flights on. It’s turn and burn. Two-run homer for O’Harn earlier in the ball game. Pitch way off the plate. One ball, two strikes. Said Mullins, man. Oh, man. Oh, Chevitz. Kevin Brown just said, “Of all the catches, that might be the one.” I mean, I said it already myself, so Kevin, stop copying my analysis of said Mullins. Okay, leave it to me, Kevin. I got this. Uh, that’s a strike out for Ryan O’Harn. Folks, get those cows up. Cowser’s 0 for two. First pitch swinging. Fouls it away. Said millions. I tell you what, his trade value just went up big time. That’s a strike to Cowser. It’s 0 and two, folks. We still have about 200 people here. What do you say we get the likes up to 150? We’re in the 130s right now. I’m over here grinding away in the middle of the night, 12 time zones away from Baltimore. help me out and tap that thumbs up at the bottom of your screen if you haven’t done so already, please. Thank you. Swinging a miss and Cowser goes down on strikes. Two away and the third left-handed batter of the inning will come up to face Flu Hardy. It’s Mullins. Just the route he took, the timing of the jump, the scaling of the wall, the ability to hold himself up and extend that glove over the wall as far as he could and to just land on his feet like a cat. I mean, just gorgeous. It’s it’s it’s like it’s like a ballet. It’s like watching uh an artist Mullins pops this up on a 10-0 pitch. It’s behind the first base dugout out of play. You can see the Markx Mullins’s cleats left in the Troll Price advertisement on that wall out there in right center field. So Mullins leaves his mark on the ballpark. If that happens to be the last great play he makes in an oral uniform, he literally leaves his mark. It’s up there, Michael. It is up there. All things considered, that catch he made out in Seattle, was it last year or two years ago? He he made a home robbery catch in Seattle. For me, that was the top. So, that would be the one this one would have to beat. It’s pretty close. Maybe it’s the additional uh layer of sentimentality knowing that Mullins’s days here may be numbered that makes that catch a little bit more special. The other catch was special because we were in the middle of a pennant race and uh Mullins opposite field. That ball’s going to roll all the way to the track. Said, “Are you thinking three?” No. He pulls up at second wisely. A two out double for Mullins after making a home run robbing catch. Folks, everybody just get up and applaud said Mullins. I’m doing it. I’m doing it right freaking now. Sorry you have to look at my crotch. Thank you, Said. This ball’s lifted by Carlson. Foul off to the left. Two out. Mullins at second base. Sad Mullins. Oh boy. Why can’t all my favorite players just stay 29 forever and get a room? Really, Richard? Richard, your insult game needs work. How about that? Richard, you’ve really got to work on the insult game. It is poor. Uh Carlson with an 02 count. Two down, runner at second base. The Orioles lead it five to four. We’re in the bottom of the sixth. Blue Hardy takes a look at the runner at second. And the O2 is a little bit high. The chant of let’s go O’s isn’t exactly taking over the ballpark, but you can hear it. One, two to Carlson is low and inside. Two balls, two strikes. All right, I think Richard has gone to his chat GPT and asked chat GPT, “Hey, what would be a good insult joke for an Orioles playbyplay guy on YouTube?” Two two pitch is in the dirt. Full count. Carlson lays off, folks. How about a base hit here with two down and driving Mullins in. Two down, full count on Carlson. Mullins at second base. Blue Hardy. Here’s the delivery. Swung on and missed. Carlson missed a cutter and the inning is over. Mullins got himself a double, but he is left stranded. The Orioles lead by one. It’s a nailbiter, folks. We move now to the final three innings. Seventh inning coming up, Orioles five, Blue Jays four. and effective insults from Richard zero. That is the current score line. All right. I mean, let me help you out, Richard. Uh, I’m fat. You can go with that. Uh, if you’re one of those millennials or jenzers, you can call me an old uh what do you call it? You can call me a boomer. That always that’s always a good one. Let’s see what else. Uh, I don’t know. How sweaty is my forehead tonight? That’s little sweaty. This this artificial light over here a few hours of this thing in the middle of the night. It’s not helping. No World Series in 42 years. Yeah, that’s true. But that’s that’s lowhanging fruit. H All right. Why do I got a feeling Richard picks a lot of crab apples off the ground? Here’s Yinier Canó. Don’t you know? We got a one-run lead here. 44th appearance for Canó. He’s got a 430 erra despite all of the uh high leverage arms that have been sent packing or put on the DL. Baker, Dominguez, Sodto, and Bautista. Yinier Canó not being considered closer material. They’re going to leave him in a a roll like this couple innings away from the ninth. This ball is hit up the middle. That is a base hit for Joey Lopero. Leading off the seventh. My goodness. Another leadoff man on for the Blue Jays in a one-run game. Oh, I need my blood pressure pills, folks. I want to sweep this series so bad. I can taste it. Ernie Clement is one for three with a double his last time up. Check on Lerido. He’s back. that pitch. Where did it go? We don’t even have a count on the board here. Was that the first pitch? It says it’s one and0 on Clement. I’m not sure if that’s correct. Next pitch. That one’s lined. It’s sprayed into center field. A base hit. Lead runner stops at second, but it’s first and second. Nobody out. Cano has instantly gotten himself and the team into a bunch of trouble. Tying and go-ahad runs on base. Nobody out. And Guerrero is up now. Oh boy, we are in trouble. And nothing he can do about the matchup. Canó has to face at least three guys. This is number three. First two have reached. Guerrero two for three today. He takes a first pitch strike. All right. Come on, folks. We saw something similar like this yesterday and we watched ourselves get out of a jam or two. Let’s try it one more time. Guerrero with a tapper to short. Only one play and Gunner is going to make it to first. A tough play for Gunner because the runner at second was uh blocking his view on his way to third. It is still a tough situation because the out moves two runners up. With only one out in the inning, the Blue Jays had a lot of a lot of different ways to tie or take the lead. Now though Bette do up next the infield is in. Rutman or excuse me Jackson’s out to talk to Canó. Charm City chat is saying you got to walk Bette here. Let me just take a peek at who’s hitting behind him. Barger left-handed batter. I don’t know, folks. That’s a tough call. Well, you got Aken in the pin. Okay, if you’re just going to put in if you’re going to put Bette on and then bring in Aken to face Barger, then I’m down with that. And it looks like the umpire just put up four fingers. So, we’re going to put Bashette on, take Cano out, and bring in Aken to face Barger. I think that would be the right move, but I’m not seeing it. It’s going to be Canó to pitch to Bashette. I thought I saw the ump indicate four fingers. Hey, okay, first pitch. Bette with a terrible swing. And it’s 0 and one. Way late on that swing. What was he thinking? Maybe Bett’s the right guy to face. Up the middle off the mound and that’s through a base hit. Here comes the tying run. Here comes the go ahead run and the Canó has blown the lead. And we probably should have put Bette on. Brought in Aken to face the lefty. That ball hit up the middle through the five hole of Cano and we are trailing now. It is five six to five uh Blue Jays here in the top of the seventh. Now you got the lefty Barger and Canó still out there pitching. What’s Aken getting up for if he’s not coming in to face Barger? Manelino is starting to give me a headache again. And now Aken has sat down in favor of the righty Cade Straoud. So what was the point of getting Aken up? What was the situation? And now Canó has just hit Barger with a pitch to load the bases. Good grief. Yinier Canó is imploding and might cost the Orioles a chance at sweeping this series with this inning he’s putting together right now. He’s only gotten one out. Two runs are in, two more are on. So, he’s faced five batters and he’s let four of them reach and he’s still out there. Manelino, what are you doing? Davis Schneider. First pitch to him is a strike. The 01. That’s a called strike. It’s 0 and2 on Schneider. Oh boy. Why was Aken up at all? That just screams a manager that can’t time this stuff right. He didn’t he didn’t know what to do or when to do it. 0 and2 on Schneider. That pitch is off the plate by an inch or two. It’s one ball, two strikes. The one two. That one’s hit. Foul left side. Oh, cano cano cano can know you didn’t. Come on. If you get out of this down a run, we still got three trips to the plate. That ball’s fouled again. Still one and two on Schneider. Canó clearly having trouble putting batters away. One, two, popped up. That should be the second out. It’s on the infield. Gunner is going to basically take over the right side of the infield. Ryan O’Harn is standing next to him going, “Buddy, you play over there. That’s where you play.” O’Harn is like, “Come on, dude. That might have been Holiday’s ball, if not mine. What are you doing over here?” Gunner’s like Kelly Leak from the Bad News Bears. Every ball’s his. Two out in the inning. Nathan Lucas is into the game. He is pinch hitting for somebody. Oh, he’s pinch hitting for Luis Jimenez or Leo Jimenez who came in to pinch run and got one at bat. So this is the third batter to hit in the spot that Will Wagner started in. 10 pitch is a strike to Lucas. It’s a one and one. Two out, two on. Two runs in for the Blue Jays. They’ve taken the lead here for the first time today. Pitch is low. Two and one the count. the 2-1 pitch. That one is lifted to right and deep. Forget it. Onto the flag court. Yinier Canó has absolutely crapped the bed here in the seventh. And I blame Manelino. I blame Manelino for leaving him in here for this long. He should have been gone three batters ago. The Blue Jays now lead it nine to five. Thanks, Tony. He could have taken him out after he faced Guerrero. He then allowed him to face Bette. He allowed him to face Barger. He allowed him to face Schneider. And then he allowed him to face Lucas, who hits the three-run homer. Four batters late taking this guy out of the ball game. Four batters late. It was a one-run game. You still were three batters late. Could have taken them out in a one-run game. Now we’re down four, you dummy. Two outs in the seventh. We got a pitching change. I need a break. Oh, such a great series. And then to watch some of these decisions here. I need my medication, folks. I’ll be back. So, it’s it’s not the best option, but it just is what it is. Hey, Good morning. I apologize for Baltimore. I apologize for Baltimore. I apologize for Baltimore. So, it’s it’s not the best option, but it just is what it is. I’ll move the guys quickly just to forget this one. I apologize for Baltimore. I apologize for Baltimore. Cade Straoud comes into the ball game four batters late. Sixth appearance of the season. First pitch swinging and this ball is going to be a base hit. Miles Straw has his third hit of the game. He’s now a triple shy of the cycle. The Orioles continue to hold a reputation that you don’t want to have, which is we really make the weakest hitters in the opposition’s lineup look good. Alli Sanchez is one for three. Two down, runner at first. Six runs in. four uh five runs in for the Blue Jays. So, five, six, seven, eight. They have batted around. Sanchez, the ninth man to bat in the inning. They let Canó face eight batters? Are you serious? 01 to Sanchez. That ball, I’m sorry, it was seven batters cuz uh Straoud already gave up a hit. This ball is going to be hard to catch, but Carlson is able to chase it down as he crosses the foul line in right field. And the inning is finally over. The Blue Jays explode. The Orioles have five runs on the day. The Blue Jays scored five runs in that inning. They now lead it 9 to5, folks. It’s seven inning stretch time in Baltimore. I know after that last half inning, it’s not uh the best time for a tradition like this, but it’s stretch time, folks. It’s time to throw some cakes on the griddle. Get them cakes up in the chat, folks. Come on now. Thank god I’m a country boy. Thank god I’m a country boy. Thank god I’m a country boy. Thank god I’m a country boy. Thank god I’m a country boy. Thank God. All right. Folks, we are two likes shy of 150. What do you say we hit that before the seventh inning, bottom of the seventh starts? We need a big rally. We need such a big rally that BW has to call on call on someone special, folks. You know who. I wore him all day for game two yesterday in that oneun win. That’s right. The hat has entered the chat. George, you hadn’t hit the like button yet. I’ve only talked about it 11 times during the ball game. Holy cow, folks. Keep those likes going. What do I got to do to get everybody to just get it out of the way as soon as they get in here? Bottom of the seventh coming up. We’re down four. We need base runners. The good news is the Blue Jay bullpen has been really bad for the first three games of this series. So, our hitters should be feeling pretty confident with just about anybody they put out there. They’re going with Yario Rodriguez. He’s probably got the best numbers. 221 erra with a whip of just 0.87. So, it’s gonna take something to string together a rally against this guy. Alex Jackson will lead it off. He’s got a double today. All he does is get extra base hits. It’s one and0 on Jackson. Pitch inside. 2 and 0. If it gets to three and0, I’ll get pretty excited. That’s a swing and a miss. Challenge fast ball right down the chute. Jackson missed it. It’s two and one. Ball popped up on the infield. That’ll be the first out of the inning. Clement makes the catch. It looks like the Blue Jays have made some changes on defense. Clement is at first base. Oh yeah, we’ve got a slew of changes, folks. Loper Fido moves from right field to left. Clement moves from second base to first. Schneider moves from left field to second. Lucas, who pinch hit for Jimenez, stays in the game and plays in right field. So, changes all over the place. Here’s Holiday, folks. We’re back to the top of the order. So, if we’re going to get a rally here in the seventh, it needs to start right now. Oh, come on, Jackson. The one to Holiday is a check swing. Excuse me. Foul ball. He didn’t mean to make contact there. Holiday currently hitting 260. Single back in the first. 1-1 is hit on the ground. A diving stop at second, but he can’t handle the ball. That is Schneider who’s moved from left field to second base. And folks, we saw something very similar in the game yesterday. Late in the ball game, the Blue Jays had a lot of guys move around to a new position on defense. and uh their defensive work out there was noticeably pretty bad. And here we have another example where Schneider does a decent job to keep the ball from getting past them, but can’t for the life of him pick it up. So Holidays aboard with one out. And here is Westber, folks. Come on. Let’s keep the line moving. West is that way. 0 and one on Westber. That ball’s foul back. My goodness. Must have hit close to the microphone that’s planted back there cuz that was a loud smash off the back stop. 0 and2 on Westber. He’s got a home run in the ball game. The O2 pitch popped up center field. Shallow racing in. That ball’s going to drop in for a hit. Two not very hard hit balls here. Holiday finds his way on on a infield grounder. Westber finds his way on with a bloop single to center. We need base runners. We’ve got a couple. And Gunner Henderson’s coming up next. His name’s Gunner and he’s dating my mom. Gunner with a chance to get us back close in a hurry. One for three today. First pitch from Rodriguez is in the dirt. Ball one, folks. This game ain’t over yet. I’m up all night to get lucky, folks. One and01 on Gunner. The pitch. That ball’s left center field. It’s down for a base hit. It dies out there. A run will score. First and third for the Orioles. Still only one out. And the tying run is coming to the plate. It’s nine to six. We’re getting back in it, folks. Don’t give up yet. Adley Rutman. Folks, let the clutch out gently. Okay, Westber at third. Gunner at first, one out. The pitch to Adley is outside by a foot. One and0. Let the clutch out gently. Come on, Adley. Pitch. Called a strike. Inside edge. One ball, one strike. Come on, Adley. The flag court is calling you. Reach for the flags. The one-1 pitch outside by a foot again. Two and one. Excuse me. Keegan Aken is up for the second time today. Two and one on Rutman. First and third, one out. The pitch. That ball’s hit on the ground and through. A base hit down the right field line. Westber scores. Where’s Gunner? The throw is in. Gunner stops at third. Second and third. The tying runs are in scoring position. Another run in. It’s nine to seven. The hits keep on coming, folks. It’s magic. mound meeting for the Blue Jays. How about this? Where are you at? Folks, folks, folks, folks, folks, folks, Ryan O’Harn is due up right now. Ryan O’Harn, let me Oh, hear you. Charm City chat, go crazy, folks. Go crazy. It’s time to turn and burn. Lights on. Let’s turn and burn. Gunner at third, Rutman at second, one out. The first pitch to O’Harn outside ball one. Keep it going. Come on. The 10 pitch outside 2 and 0. The oral bird is strutting around the ballpark trying to get everybody hyped. 200 pitch. He lays off. He didn’t go. They appeal. It’s three and 0, folks. Three and 0. Colton Cowser is on deck. The pitch outside ball four bases loaded, folks. I’m walking here. I’m walking here. Get those cows up and get them filled up, folks. Nothing but cows. Nothing but cows. NBC in the CCC. Cowser is due. He’s 0 for three. He is due. Base is loaded. One out. First pitch outside. Ball one. Rodriguez can’t find the zone. The one taken. Ball two. The ump. It was unclear how he was calling it. It is ball two on Cowser, folks. Two and O count. Will he get a fast ball that he can crush the pitch outside? Three and 0. One more time. Nowhere to put him. Nowhere to put him. A three 0 count. Rodriguez has got to be shaking in his boots right now. Hang on to your hats, folks. The three 0 pitch taken low. Ball four. It forces in a run. It’s 9 to8. The tying run now 90 ft away with less than two out. Rutman moves up to third as the tying run, folks. Oh ho ho. It’s mag. And Yario uh or the pitcher uh is it Yario Rodriguez? He is hitting the showers, folks. Rodriguez, a third of an inning, three hits and two walks, three earned runs so far. He’s got more on base. It’s his responsibility. Call to the bullpen. Said Mullins is due to hit next. Let’s see who they go with. If it’s a righty, stick with said. If it’s a lefty, maybe you need a pinch hit with a guy like an O’Neal or a Mayo. We got some right-handed options on the bench. If you pinch hit with O’Neal, he could move into a corner outfield spot. Cowser can move to center. Saids had a two hit game and a magical catch. Maybe you want to see him hit against a lefty if they bring one out. I don’t know. But I think you got to play the matchups here. O’Neal has been uh delivering and with some big hits. I’d like to see what what O’Neal can do with the bases loaded. He is a strikeout candidate though. We need a guy that makes contact. We need a guy that has to make contact. Oh boy, folks. We are so close to coming right back to tie or take the lead. Bases loaded, one out, down by a run. Here comes Mullins. Who’s on the pitch? It’s a right-hander. Okay, Braden Fiser. 32 appearance. Here we go. Said, you know what to do. Oh, that first pitch. He should have taken it. A curveball. It did catch the upper outside corner, but not a good pitch to go after. First pitch of the atbat. Come on, said, lock in, buddy. We need contact. Curve ball that hits the bottom of the zone and it’s 0 and two. Mullins needs to lock in. Cannot strike out here. Cannot strike out here. Bases loaded. One out. We’re down a run. The O2. Oh, he just got a piece of a high pitch. A protective swing for sure. Still low and two. Come on, said one more piece of magic, my friend. Way high on that pitch. One ball, two strikes. Come on, said lock in, buddy. Cover the top, cover the bottom, cover the outside, cover it all. That’s high again, folks. After an 02 count, it’s even up at two and two. You would think Mullins would get a pitch to hit here. And Fischer doesn’t want to go to a full count. 2-2 line foul off to the right. We will do it again, folks. Come on, Charm City chat. Keep it up. Will it to happen? Another 2-2. Just got a piece of that curveball to stay alive. Oh my. That ball disappeared for a moment as it rolled behind the catcher. I thought maybe Mullins had struck out. He just got a piece. Come on, said put that ball in play. The 22 again. Swung on and missed. A curve ball. Got him. Oh my. Dylan Carlson’s due up next. And they’re going to pinch hit for him with Ramon Lauraniano. I can’t blame him. Even though Carlson would be batting from the left side, you got to go with the guy that’s been producing time and time again, folks. Raone Lauraniano. Let’s see what he can do. Bases loaded, two down. Raone just threw a rock at me. Lauraniano’s average is now into the 290s. He’s reached base in seven straight plate appearances, which ties the longest such streak in his major league career. We’ll take anything that will keep this inning going. Anything to extend this inning would at least tie the ball game. Here comes the first pitch taken low and outside for ball one. A good start. Come on, folks. The 10. That’s in there. A strike. One ball. One strike. The bugle is going off at the ballpark. It’s going off here in the Charm City chat. One-1 pitch. Oh, a check swing in the dirt. He did not go. Two and one, folks. Come on, Ramon. Come on. Find a gap. Clear those bases, buddy. 2-1 pitch. Oh, did he check it? No, he could not that time. A high pitch. And it’s two and two. Ah, he did go around only a little bit. Two and two. Come on, Raone. The pitch. He lays off. It’s a full count. nowhere to put him. Come on, folks. If he takes one out of the zone, it ties the ball game, but he’s got to protect as well. What a situation we got. 32 bases loaded. The pitch swung on and fouled back. Holy cow, folks. Go to your medicine cabinet and grab those nitroglycerin pills. If your heart is racing as much as mine is, take something to calm you down. Another 32 pitch. We’re waiting on Lauriano takes a break out of the box. Come on, buddy. Lock in another 32 from Fiser. The pitch that he rung him up. That’s a ball. Blue. You mother what? What? What? Blue. Manelino. Go out there right now and get in his face. It’s outside the whole damn way there. It’s outside the whole damn way there. When was it ever in the zone? When was it ever in the zone? You cost us the tying run, you son of a [ __ ] I need a break. To be fair, we got robbed of a game tying run. To be fair, to be fair, Raone Lauriano was punished for having a good eye. To be fair, not the beast. Not the beast. I love my eyes. My eyes. We are in the top of the eighth. Cade Straoud continues to pitch. He only needed to throw three pitches to finish the seventh. Joey Loperito is up top of the order for the Blue Jays. They lead it nine to eight. 10 pitch is fouled away. It’s one and one. This [ __ ] umpire. Unbelievable. It was outside the whole way. The whole way. Popped up shallow left center and it’s going to drop in for a hit in no man’s land. Another leadoff base runner for the Blue Jays. Yes. Language. Thanks, Richard. Or should I call you Dick for short? Here’s Ernie Clement. Sir Anthony Dominguez is up in the Blue Jay bullpen. By the way, Richard, your attempts just continue to fail. You’re getting roasted, my friend. Only in the bedroom. You and your favorite box of Kleenex, huh? All right. 0 and2 the count on Ernie Clement. Runner at first. Nobody out. We’re in the top of the eighth. The Blue Jays lead nine to eight. I don’t know what it means, David. He doesn’t know what it means either. He’s just grasping. Grasping to be slightly amusing in his attempts at insults. And so far, he’s about 0 for seven. But, you know, you keep trying eventually. You know, a broken clock is correct twice a day. One two pitch to Clement. fouled at the plate. We’ll do it again. What do I wish, Richard? What do I wish? Good grief. Every comeback of yours sounds like something I would hear out of a second grader on the playground. All you’re missing is I know you are, but what am I? That’s That’s the last weapon in your pocket. You stink at this, Richard. Holy cow. Here’s a ground ball to Gunner. He flips it out of the glove to Holiday and they get the force play at second. It’s the only out they’ll get. First out here in the top of the eighth. It’ll be a fieldielder’s choice. And wow, Gunner or Holiday had to bare hand that ball on the flip out of the glove from Gunner while keeping his foot on the bag. Just able to do it all there. Oh yeah. Do you have a good your mama joke? Oh boy. All right. Here’s Guerrero up for the fifth time today. He’s two for four. A single, a double, an RBI. Straoud with a pitch low and away. One and0 on Guerrero. You know, sticks and stones may break my bones there, Richard. This pitch is low and away. Two and0 the count. the 20. That’s off the plate. Three and 0. The count on Guerrero. This is not a good spot to pitch around with a runner at first. You don’t want to push that guy into scoring position down a run already. 3 0 to Guerrero. There’s a called strike. Oh my. Three and one the count. Dangerous count to pitch to Guerrero. And that’s ball four. Not close. A cutter that breaks off the plate. Guerrero will reach base again and that pushes once again the uh lead runner into scoring position. Now here’s a replay of that catch and throw by Cowser to nail that runner at home. That was between that play and the said Mullins home run robbery. I tell you what, if the Orioles don’t win this ball game, it was still one hell of a game to watch. I hope we can come back. We were so close to getting all the way back in that previous inning. Bo Bashette takes a first pitch strike. He’s one for four. We need a double play ball here. That one’s laid off. Low and away. One ball, one strike. Nine to8 Blue Jays. We’re in the top of the eighth. The Orioles have led most of the way. Toronto, then took the lead a couple of innings back with a big inning. We were down by what? Four. And we’ve got a few back to make it a one-run ball game. 9 to8. It is a 2-1 count on Bette. And the pitch reached four off the plate. Fouled away. Two and two. 66 runs scored by the Orioles in the past seven games and they’ve still got time to score more in this one. This pitch fouled away by Bette. Looks like it nearly hit the first base coach. Let’s see on the replay here. Oh yeah, he had to uh turn out of the way of that one. Two and two on Bette. First and second, one out. Straoud from the belt and the pitch. That one started in the zone and dropped into the dirt for ball three. You cannot walk Bette and load up the bases with only one out. You got to pitch to these guys here, Cade. You already walked Guerrero. Got to come at him with something here. Payoff pitch to Bette. Swung on. Hit to the right side and the first baseman of Hearn goes to second for one. Back to first. Straoud covers the bag. It’s a double play. Unbelievable, folks. A little of the old 3-6 to one double play. Look at Straoud dragging that back foot on the bag to keep that double play to go down. What a great way to win the inning. All right, we go to the bottom of the eighth. It’s a one-run ball game. We still got six outs to play with, folks. And if we’ve scored eight runs in the first seven innings, my math says that we’re averaging better than a run per inning, which means we should score a run and tie the game coming up here in the bottom of the eighth. How’s that for logic? Does that sound feasible to you? I hope so. Uh, we’ve still got some uh weapons on the bench. By the way, Lauriano’s into the ball game for Carlson. He’s in right field. He’s still got Kobe Mayo out there on the bench. If they bring in a lefty somewhere, we got a lot of lefty batters still in this lineup. Holiday, Gunner. Well, they’re not going anywhere. Cowser and Mullins and O’Harn hit all in a row in the uh five, six, and seven spots. I’d like to see Mayo get a swing in this ball game. Lots of runs on the board today. Lots of home runs flying out recently. The Orioles have a couple of homers today. So do the Blue Jays. All right, one more lucky ought to do it for me here tonight. A little dab will do you. Matter of fact, I might put on some regular coffee. What are we looking at? 2:30 a.m. I don’t know what to do. I don’t know how I do it, folks. I’m not asking for a pat on the back, but honestly, sometimes I just don’t know how I do it. Tyler O’Neal is on the on deck circle. I forgot about him. So, Mayo and O’Neal, two weapons from the right side on the bench. And O’Neal is going to get his chance right now. Sir Anthony Dominguez of all people is on the pitch for the Blue Jays. So, here we go. O’Neal versus Dominguez. Sir Anthony making his second appearance against us in under 24 hours. First pitch to O’Neal is high for ball one. That’ll play. Ahoy there. Anybody home? 10. That’s a called strike on the inside edge. O’Neal is hitting 218. He’s got seven homers, 21 driven in and he lifts this one down the right field side, first base side into the crowd. Two strikes on O’Neal leading off the bottom of the eighth. It is getting hot in here, folks. So, we’re three subscribers away from 3,150. I’d love to get the 3150 today. Three more subs would do it. Called strike three. O’Neal got some nasty pitches there from Dominguez. There’s nothing he can do with that pitch really. How do you How do you not give up on that pitch? It’s It’s coming in toward you and then next thing you know it breaks back and hits the inside corner. One out for Holiday. He takes a fast ball right in there for a strike. Come on, Jackson. Come on, buddy. We just need one run. By the way, folks, all the Orioles nearly came all the way back on the inning where I put the hat on. Just so you know, that was hat magic. Andrew Kitridge is up in the pin. Holiday with a chopper foul along the first baseline. It kicks back fair. That’s a fair ball. And Holiday is out. Unbelievable. Holiday with a chopper along the first baseline. It’s foul, but it had some English on it. It hits the seam of the grass and bounces it back to fair territory. Are you kidding me? That has got to be the cheapest out ever. Poor Jackson Holiday. Two down. Here’s Westber. And that pitch is high for ball one. Come on, Westy. We need more of that clutch home run hitting that we’ve seen from you the past couple of seasons. How about a clutch game tying bomb right now? Well, West is that way. West is that way. The 10 pitch low and away. Two and0 on Westber. Gunner on deck. If Westber can get on. Oh, come on, Blue. That’s low. The Orioles are screwed by another call. It’s two and one on West. That pitch does get the bottom of the zone this time. And it’s called strike two on Westber. The 22 reached for, popped up down the right field line. Long run down there. It’s going to be out of reach up against the screen. Still two and two on West, folks. One swing ties the ball game. Hey there JJ, how you doing buddy? Home play dump. Uh, home play dump needs to uh needs to take a hike. That’s about the nicest thing I can say. Pitch swung on and missed. That fast ball from Dominguez had some run to it and it ran off the plate. Westber strikes out to win the inning. We’re going to the ninth. The Blue Jays lead this one by one run. Toronto 9, Baltimore 8 going into the ninth inning in the final game of this four game series. What a series this has been. Hey there, Jordan. Uh, replace the word O’s with your name and uh, I have the same sentiment. See you later. That was a hell of a contribution there, Jordan. We’re going to miss you, buddy. We got to know you so much. There’s more fans in this chat than at the stadium. Well, Jordan, hey, thanks for the compliment. I know I’m crushing it here on the channel. Thanks for subscribing just to try to insult me. Appreciate the subscription. My good. Could I please have somebody show up today that understands how to insult people properly? Could you please do a better job at hurting my feelings or something? You’re boring me. These attempts at insults are boring me. My goodness. I feel like Simon on American Idol. You’re You’re boring. You’re just simply boring. There’s nothing to it. There’s nothing there. Honestly, I’d have more I’d be more excited reading the back of a shampoo bottle. Simply dreadful. You’re not going to Hollywood. You’re keeping it PG, Richard. What does that stand for? Pretty god awful. See, that’s called humor, Richard. That’s being clever. It’s building off of something you said and making it actually funny. You see how comedy works? All right, here’s Andrew Kitridge. Now, why don’t you want to get banned? Why not? So, you want to antagonize, but you don’t want to get banned. You want to antagonize just enough to be able to hang out, but not get banned. Makes sense, Richard. You seem like a swell guy. Addison Barger has an 01 count and the next pitch is fouled away. 0 and2. Barger leading off the top of the ninth. He’s 0 for two on the afternoon. Jeff Hoffman is up and ready to come in to close it out for Toronto in the bottom half of the inning. Swing and a miss. Barger chases one low and in from Kitridge. Down he goes. Well, y’all come back now, you hear? Well, y’all come back now, you hear? Swinging a miss from Davis Schneider here. He’s 0 for three, folks. It looks like my chat went down for a moment. Looks like it’s back up. 01 pitch from Kitridge. Popped up center field. Mullins barely has to move and he makes the catch. Two away in the ninth. Two outs on five pitches from Kitridge. So, it’s going to be Gunner, Rutman, and O’Harn do up in the bottom of the ninth, apparently. That’s about the best trio you could ask for, I’d say, to try to get one run back. First pitch strike to Nathan Lucas. It’s his second plate appearance since coming on to pinch hit. His first appearance was a backb breakaker, a threerun homer off Cano. That is the difference in the ball game. I swear if Mancolino had just taken Cano out just one batter sooner, he should have done it three batters sooner. But if he had just did it one batter sooner, we’re probably in a winning position right now. Here’s a ground ball to first. O’Harn will take it to the bag unassisted and the inning is over, folks. We are going into the bottom of the ninth. We are down one run, but we’ve got Gunner Adley and Ryan O’Harn coming up. Jeff Hoffman’s making his way out of the bullpen to try to close the door. We are going to make it as difficult as possible for that to happen. Hang on to your hats, folks. Bottom of the ninth coming up. Orioles magic. We could use some right now. Might I remind everybody here in Birdland, the Orioles are the only team in Major League Baseball without a walk-off win this season. Let me say that again. The Orioles are the only team to not have the fun of a walk-off win all season long. What better way to cap off this four-game series against the Blue Jays than to seal it to seal a sweep with a walk-off win. Please give me some Orioles magic, folks. Now, normally when we’re trying to win a game, when we got a lead in the ninth, we hit those heart emojis in the chat. Folks, I’m going to ask you to switch it up today. I want to see those hearts flying in the bottom of the ninth, down a run, willing this team to at least tie this ball game up. Keep those hearts flying. Thank you. All right. Here we go. Wait a minute. What happened? Did they take the game away? Event about to start. Did they freak? They took my game away. I don’t believe it. Mob Network just dumped me onto another page right when the inning is starting. How dare you, folks? I’m missing two pitches already. Hold on. Here’s the balls and strikes. I can’t believe they did that to me. How dare you? bumped me off right in the middle of the bottom of the ninth. I’m almost back. All right, I’m back. It’s a one- one count on Gunner. All right, one and one the count. That pitch is outside from Hoffman. The count is two and one. Need a scoreboard refresh. Isn’t that right? 98. Next pitch is fouled away. It’s two and two on Gunnar. Come on, Gunner. If Gunner can reach base here as the leadoff man, the chances of a comeback are exponentially higher. Here’s a ball hit to the right side. It’s collected by the first baseman. A play at first is very close with the pitcher covering the bag. Gunner was right there with him. The Orioles are picking up the phone. I mean, at this stage, challenge it. I don’t care. Let’s see here. Oh, Hoffman got him. Damn. I mean, by a quarter of a step, an eighth of a step, Gunner is out. One away for Adley. And that first pitch, he called that a strike. That looked low. Jeez Louise Adley. Come on, buddy. Let the clutch out gently. Okay. Way outside from Hoffman. One ball, one strike. The 1-1 swinging a miss. He chased a slider that wound up low and inside. Rutman with two strikes. Quit begging. What? Richard, why don’t you just take the rest of the game off? I’ve had enough. It’s been fun, Richard. It’s been fun uh mocking you for about an hour. Roman hits one the left, but it’s right at him. That’s the second out. The Orioles have one out left to play with. It was fun, Dick. Fun with Dick. Ryan O’Harn potentially his final at bat as an oral for all we know. First pitch is a strike. Come on Ryan, if it’s your last goound, make it count. Give us a memory. Fouled away. We’re down to our last strike. It’s 0 and2. It’s turn and burn. It is 0 and2 with two down in the ninth, folks. Oh, I don’t want to come up one run short. Not with the way Manelino handled Canó in that one disaster inning. The O2 inside, one ball, two strikes. Hang in there folks. The one two in the dirt. O’Harn hanging in there. Two balls, two strikes. All it takes is for Hoffman to throw one somewhere in the zone where O’Harn is looking and we can keep this game going. Two- two pitch. Oh my. The umpire could have easily rung O’Harn up and ended the game. He did not. We have life. It’s three and two. That does not make up for the blown call earlier that would have tied the game on the ball four to Lauriano. Payoff pitch swung on and missed. O’Harn chased ball four in the dirt and this ball game is officially over. Final score, Blue Jays nine, Orioles eight. Nine runs, 13 hits, two errors for Toronto. So, they left seven men. The Orioles had eight runs on 10 hits. They did not make an error and they left six. Haha. Salty Orioles fan. What am I being salty about? We took three out of four against the Blue Jays. Go suck an egg. Go suck a salty egg, you schmuck. God, go get your jollies somewhere else. The Orioles have been looking great. It’s one bad inning from Canó and one bad uh lack of decision making from Tony Manselino. Otherwise, we would have swept these Blue Jays. Kiss my ass. All right, now that we cleared all that up, let’s get into this postgame show. Holy cow. Keep coming at me, folks. Keep trying. Keep trying to get one over on BW. Hey, by the way, we’ve hit 3,150 subscribers. How about that? Besides that, it’s on the reflexes. And I want to thank you very much for that. I really do. Although I could uh definitely picture a couple of shenanigan folks unsubing just to make it go down. So, you know what? Why don’t we just uh for now make it invisible there. Now you don’t know what the sub count is, but you saw it hit 3150 now, didn’t you? All right, folks. Wow. A lot of Jay’s fans here. Let me just ask you something. There’s a very popular Toronto Blue Jays playbyplay channel out there. It’s a couple of guys. They’ve got like a little like uh what do you call it? Magic marker board behind them. You must know who I’m talking about, right? Are they uh are they no longer getting the job done for you Blue Jay fans? I mean, I know I call a good game and all. I’m just trying to understand I know there’s some uh teams out there that don’t really have a dedicated announcer on YouTube. So, whoever the other team they’re playing, they’ll just go to that channel to check in. But you Blue Jay fans, you guys got a big channel out there. I can’t remember the name, but they’ve got like 10,000 subscribers. Oh, I appreciate you hanging out over here anyway. They aren’t live. Why aren’t they live? Aren’t they normally live? They’re watching the game and reacting in real time. How is it not live? One thing’s for sure, the Blue Jays will be happy to be leaving Baltimore. They don’t want to see us anymore. I’m sure they didn’t expect to lose three out of four. That’s for sure. Took three out of four from the Blue Jays. Bro, your team is in the gutter. Not even making the playoffs. L M AO, you go suck an egg. Hey DB, it’s called being a baseball ban, you schmuck. What is anybody supposed to do if they’re a fan of a team at this stage of the season? We’re not allowed to celebrate wins or series wins. You act like your team has never been in our position. What do you do at that stage of the season when you take three out of four from a first place team? What? Are you supposed to sit there and go, “Oh god, I guess we got lucky. Normally we suck. I guess we got lucky this time.” But folks, keep staying depressed. You make no sense, you idiot. Why wouldn’t we sit here and enjoy what just happened? Yes, we took three out of four from the Blue Jays. You’re quoting me like I’m saying something way off base. What is inaccurate about it? What was I supposed to say? You schmuck. Talk to me, DB. Talk to me. Talk to me. Come on, buddy. Let’s go. I’ve already handled half a dozen of you today. What’s one more? What else do you got to say? Why don’t you quote me again? Come on, DB. I’m waiting. Come on. I don’t need all this time with a comeback. I’m just talking off the top of my head. What are you going to chat GPT to look for an insult? Just talk. Defend yourself. Hello Yeah, exactly. Oh, you’re you’re something else, DB. Wow. Thanks. Do you understand? You’re one of like 500 million people just like you on social media. Like, you don’t even stand out. I just like picking on people like you. I get my jollies because the thing is I’m not antagonizing you. I’m not instigating anything with you. But if you do it to me, I get to basically say whatever the hell I want without feeling any amount of guilt or shame because you were the dick first. I get free. I got I got cart blanch. Thank you for that. I love taking you guys down to size. Anyway, the Orioles will be hitting the road now after a day off coming up tomorrow. We will be heading to Wrigley Field coming up this weekend and then it’s off to Philadelphia. So, we got a couple of National League opponents with some very good records coming up. But folks, even though we took three out of four, and apparently just saying that uh gets some people triggered out there, sorry that it happened, but even though uh I’m sorry we took three out of four, it is a positive sign that maybe uh we can go out and uh win some series against some of these better teams in the league. The Blue Jays came into town when they got here on Friday. They had the best record in baseball. They’re not leaving with the best record in baseball thanks to us. Once again, just saying facts. Sorry if that offends some of you out there, but uh yeah, I’m looking forward to the uh weekend coming up. Wrigley Field, three afternoon games. I love the ballpark at Wrigley. As I’ve said before, I watched a lot of games growing up on uh WGN with Harry Kerry. So, it’s going to be a fun time for me. Oh. Oh, I’m sorry. DB’s back. Hey, DB. It only took you seven minutes. Let’s Let’s break this down. I’m sure it’s going to blow me away. Bro has the insults of a 75year-old man. All right. So, just throw out an age of an old person. And I guess that’s insulting. What would that insult be? What age would that insult fall under DB? Saying that I have the insults of a 75year-old man sounds like the insult of a 11year-old boy. Now what? Uh, bro, who’s calling people a schmuck in 2025? Enjoy your poverty. Ah, franchise. Oh, I love it. I love it when they tag their own insult with a giant all caps LMAO as if they’re actually sitting there laughing so hard when they’re sitting there alone with nobody around in this chat or anywhere else to support their stupid opinions and awful attempts at insults. I’m sorry, lonely man. You stink at this. You really stink at this. Uh, do I have another way to put it that makes me sound 35? I don’t know. How old would you like me to sound while I eviscerate you? What age do you prefer to be taken down to size? How would you like to be insulted? An elderly man, a little boy, middle-aged man, fresh out of college? What would you like, you dope? You got anything else? Or do I have to wait 8 minutes for the next attempt at insulting me? Could you possibly speed it up this time? I got things to do. Like, you know, with my age and all, I got to go drink some insure and play some shuffleboard. You know, old people things. I gotta fill out my AARP card. You’re an idiot. All right. Sorry I had to spend my time in the post game [ __ ] on you for 10 minutes straight, but I enjoyed it. It’s a great pallet cleanser after this loss today. Now to the rest of Charm City Chat. The folks here that I actually give a damn about. Folks, I hope you will join me on Friday as we head out to Wrigley Field. Orioles versus Cubs. First uh game on Friday. Let me bring up the start time here. Oh, wait. DB’s back. You sound triggered. LMFAO. God damn. Just the most basic, most predictable stuff coming out of you. Yeah, I’m triggered. Exactly. Let me guess. I’m also woke. What else? What other buzzwords do you just want to throw in in a half-hearted attempt to get in one one successful insult? 58 and living in mommy’s basement. Yeah, you obviously don’t know me at all. Yeah, I’m living in mom’s basement, 12 time zones away from uh the East Coast. A very deep basement. It goes all the way through planet Earth all the way through to the other side. Holy cow. You don’t know a goddamn thing about me, do you? Nor should you. Well, DB, it’s been a pleasure. you had your ass handed to you and uh nobody around here uh thinks that what you’re doing is working. So, I’m going to just help you out and uh you know, go ahead and just Yeah. Have a good rest of your day, DB. Sorry, we won three out of four. My bad. Thanks, DB. Oh, he couldn’t handle me. He was triggered as I spent 15 minutes eviscerating him and begging him to comment more. Bro, you lost. Take the L and just practice. That would be my advice. Practice at being a better [ __ ] cuz you’re not even good at it. Holy cow. All right. So, Friday’s game, first pitch will be at 2:20 p.m. Eastern. I will be on the air at 2:05 p.m. 2:05 p.m. on Friday. It’s going to be Trevor Rogers against Cade Horton, a right-hander for the Cubs. He’s 23 years old. He’s got a record of 4 and3, a 367 erra, a 131 whip. I’ve never seen Cade Horton pitch, so this will be a debut for me. Uh, the following two games in the series will see Tomyuki Sagano in game two, Zack Efflin in game three. All three games with a 2:20 p.m. Eastern start time, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. day games at Wrigley Field, folks. It’s what baseball is all about. I hope I hope you come back and join me. I hope most of you will come back and join me. A few of you can go uh you know, piss up piss up a rope. Oh, wait. Only a 64 year old would use that. H I gota I gota I got to get with the younger lingo. All right, folks. Hey, there is Melanie Newman. The cleavage is out, so it’s time for me to go. Let’s see if there’s somewhere I can send you. Thanks for hanging out with the world’s most disgusting announcer. I’m And today I’ve learned I’m also 85 years old. Every day I’m learning new things about myself. It is uh doing this gig really does pay off in so many different ways. All right, JJ, are you not live right now? Where are you, buddy? Who’s live? Who is live right now? It says Thomas Fitzpatrick, but I don’t see him live over here. Let me try go to his page. Yeah, this this is not accurate. No, nobody’s live. All right, folks. I’m just going to sign off. There’s not going to be a redirect today. Let me say thanks to everybody in the Charm City chat. Folks, we got over 4,000 views on one game today. And uh out of those over 4,000, 28 of them were complete jerkoffs. Thanks to them for helping us get over 4,000. Without you, we still would have been in the 300s. Thanks for your help. Uh the likes, one more gets us to 180. We had a super chat in earlier from Andrea. Thanks so much, Andrea. I hope you uh uh get through the procedures uh there in the hospital and hopefully get back in your home more comfortably soon. Uh folks, if you want to support the channel with a super chat or a membership, uh you can always do it whenever you want. But uh I’m going to take the rest of today off. Tomorrow’s completely off. Uh so I’m going to enjoy uh some downtime. That’ll do it. That’s going to wrap it up. We just hit 180 plus likes. Thanks everybody. Thanks to the mods in the charm city chat for usually keeping the chat nice and charming. Boy, did I have to do a lot of work on my own today. Hint hint. Uh, thanks to everybody else for helping out in all the ways that you help. Uh, I enjoy watching baseball with you and we’ll look forward to doing it again at Wrigley on Friday. Until then, folks, have a good rest of your week and I’ll see you on Friday afternoon. Uh, until then, this has been the bird watcher and the hat and we will chirp at you later, folks. Have a good one. Sorry we lost this one. It was close, but it was a good series. Good series for Baltimore. I’ll see you out in Wrigley on Friday. Take it easy, folks.

Technically it wouldn't be a four game sweep, because the first game yesterday counted towards the series in April.
