Eovaldi did well. Heath Bell didn't even get to ruin it.

Cishek and Dunn did though.

[Ramp]

really MH, just posting the Billy Ripken card now?

[Mainge]

The "Fu" looks like an anchor.

Anchor face.
--------------------
An anchor with a duck head attached.

[Beef]

It's true, that card is a good candidate for "welcome to 1989"

Miggy reached the 40 home run mark for the first time in his career tonight.

Serious triple crown threat. He is leading the AL in average and RBI and is two back of Hamilton in HRs.

[Chewford]

How's Cameron Maybin doing?

[Todd]

His standard Cameron Maybin performance of being kinda shitty.

[Erick]

He's doing a lot better than Ryan Webb.

[Anonymous]

Andrew Miller is better than all of them. : )

[HUGG]

Orioles and Mariners are still playing

2-2 in the 17th
--------------------
The Orioles just pinch hit for Endy Chavez with Lew Ford

pretty sure this game is from 2002
--------------------
Orioles scored 2 in the 9th and 2 in the 18th to win 4-2

"I have friends who are gay," he said. "The person who decorates my house is gay. The person who cuts my hair is gay. I have various friends who are gay. Honestly they haven't felt as offended about this. There's just a different understanding in the Latin community of this word."

Progressive words from Yunel Escobar.

[MiamiHomer]

It's sort of true.

[Chewford]

Except he's not in the Latin community, he's in Toronto, which is like one of the capitals of white people.

[HUGG]

It's one of the capitals of white people if you mean "totally not one of the capitals of white people"

The Baltimore Orioles initially had said that they would not promote their top pitching prospect, right-hander Dylan Bundy.

A pennant race and an 18-inning game have a way of changing a team’s best-laid plans.

Bundy, 19, is heading to the majors.

The Orioles informed Bundy early Wednesday morning that they were promoting him from their Instructional League team in Florida.

Bundy is expected to join the team in time for its series finale against the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday night at 10:10 p.m. ET, and likely will fill a limited role in relief.
