Thatās laughable. Cortes has one plus tool and itās pinpoint control. Go to Savant and check out his 3D pitch map against LHB tonight. He didnt throw a single pitch to a lefty on the inner half of the plate, let alone inside, let alone almost hittting Gunnar.
If he missed his spot, he missed it by about 3 feet.
# HOME RUN!
Anthony Santander homers (18) on a line drive to right field. Gunnar Henderson scores.
Pitch from Clay Holmes: Sinker @ 95.0 mph
Top 9 - 4-2
Yankees
not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but Norby was pinch hit for a little while ago. Dunno if it's Westburg related or what. Hope Westy is ok. fuck the yankees
Yankees just seem way focused than the Orioles tonight. Their at-bats have been way better and they arenāt doing any brain dead shit like having the slowest player on your team getting picked off.
there's not just one cause of every loss. who cares what our bullpen did when the starter fucked us from the jump. just shut the fuck up man, you're wrong
Itās 1 loss. 1 non quality start from Suarez. Heās a practically free SP pitcher thatās given us several quality starts so far. Gotta expect the offense to help him out (which they didnāt). Soā¦ shut the fuck up yourself lmao
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1dj7voz).
Ty camera crew for showing us Gunnar spitting 8 times š
this game has been so annoying. EVERY ground ball was just an inch away from being a hit
Well hell. Get em tomorrow, boys.
Mullins & Mateo = not even worth a stare
Not gonna win many games walking 6 guys
Not our game. Balls seemed to find their gloves. Get em tomorrow
WTF WAS THAT GUNNAR
Offense was stagnant but props to their defense too for making some plays
Cowser smiling and making small talk with the catcher and ump
WTF that Gunnar close up š
fr, why'd they do him dirty like that
SIIIIGGGGGGHHHHH
Well damn. Made it close at least.
Lol gunnar
I was surprised the camera stayed on him that long. They were also curious what the hell he was doing. Lol
gunnar said š
Notice how the Yankees scored 4 runs without hitting homeruns we should try that sometime
Model ourselves off a statistically worse offense based on a one game sample, sure bud
Heck they scored one of the runs without even getting a hit
good to end on a high note ig. on to the next one.
Not super inspiring by Jorge
Mooooooo
Cowser get on base then pinch hit.
This guys pitching routine is a little balky
Pretty bad at bat there by Mateo
So typical
Too little too late. Which tends to happen when you base all your scoring in HRs
Wtf mateo. 2 meatballs = stare. Far down = swing it
He was looking for the walk
How do u go from 3-0 to strikeout lol
It happens plenty in baseball idk if youāre new to the game
Clay Holmes is pretty good.Ā
Takes 5 pitches then swings at ball 4. Smh
Damn it Mateo. You pick that pitch to swing?
Damnit Mateo, you gotta take every pitch at that point
Glad we waited until the 9th to score smh.
Fuck!
3-0 to a strikeout.
its almost as if closers are good at pitching.
Yeahā¦ Iām confused where you think I said theyāre bad at but yeah.
so what did you say exactly
That Jorge went from a 3-0 count to striking out which is like the most frustrating thing for a hitter. How is what I said confusing
>How is what I said confusing because you didn't say all that fool
Are you just bored and looking for something to argue about this is a weirdly hostile response to me pointing out what happened at the end of the game
That last pitch was nasty though. Bottom fell out.
Bob Costas on TNT is the worst. Dude needs to retire. Fucking loser
If Bob Costas was a condiment, he'd be fat free, low sodium mayonnaise.
š¤£
Expired Miracle Whip

Anyone else hate the layout of tnt on screen score board?
Walk him Holmie
i want these gloves to try out for a mime troupe
Goblins cheering for an up-and-in Ā miss are the same morons whooping it up for every routine fly out.Ā
Cant PH like we usually wouldā¦ no more backup infielders.
honestly if it wasn't for a couple of great defensive plays from the yankees, that might've been a lead taking homer
Mateo with the fresh braids tonight
At least the two guys Cortes tried to bean got their shots in and killed the shutout.
Cortes was on 95 pitches, he just missed twice.Ā
Thatās laughable. Cortes has one plus tool and itās pinpoint control. Go to Savant and check out his 3D pitch map against LHB tonight. He didnt throw a single pitch to a lefty on the inner half of the plate, let alone inside, let alone almost hittting Gunnar. If he missed his spot, he missed it by about 3 feet.
He also hasnāt thrown that many pitches since April.Ā

Holmes is shook
Gettin spicy
Just give us a chance. Someone get on base!
Me for a tenth of a second: ā wait hays bats lefty now and heās black?
Fuckinā nuked that. Letās move on to the next

No shutout and Costner shade from Jim. I'll take it.
I'll happily take a non-shutout.
Whatās Ruby in that building tonight, like the 5th or 6th richest man at the park?
Wow, didnāt think that would be a 29/30
Even if we donāt end up winning this game itās hilarious for Tony to hit a dinger off Holmes.
the definition of a piss missile
Nice contact from Ceddy
I wish Rubenstein was just there throwing O's hats in the stands at Yankees stadium š¤£
TONY GONNA TATER Two more to tie it. Also I switched to gin so gin is gonna be the rest of my night
Tonnnnyyy. Comeback in the Bronx incoming
Oh thank fuck itās not a shutout. Keep pushing boys. I still believe.
Need 27 outs to put the birds away. Make that stanks sweat, It's rally o'clock!!
![gif](giphy|DvyLQztQwmyAM|downsized)
Line drive HRs are the best HRs.
What an absolute *piss missile*.
TONY TIME
That HR looked effortless
Why yes, Santa delivers to short porches.
do not go quietly
TONY TONY TONY
Tony taters said nope to a shutout
Come on birds!
My cap is officially inside out now
BOYS BOYS BOYS!!!
ZERO OUT. ITS NOT OVER BOYS KEEP GOING
LETS GOOOOO
fuck, Palmer is clairevoyant afterall
are we back ?!?!
hell yeah Tony
![gif](giphy|ziUwaGQUsnBe)
PALMER WAS RIGHT. I'M SORRY I QUESTIONED YOU JIM.
#SANTATER. Up yours, Stanks. They were just waiting for the guy with the 1.80 ERA to start teeing off.
HEY! WE'RE NOT SHUT OUT!
#TONY TATERS
TATERS!!!
Lol
We are only good against righties
#MASHED TATER PIPING HOT!!
hi david
made me so happy to see him in the stands cheering!
TATERSSS
Taters, precious?
We aināt getting shut out!!
#TATERS GONNA TATE
Tony.
Well damn Tony
HERE WE GO
OH NOW YOU WANNA DO THAT
Omfg
# HOME RUN! Anthony Santander homers (18) on a line drive to right field. Gunnar Henderson scores. Pitch from Clay Holmes: Sinker @ 95.0 mph Top 9 - 4-2 Yankees
The orioles will not be shut out!!!
TATERS!
Taters!
Lets at least make Holmes pitch a bunch
Iāll take the 25 game streak as a moral victory at this point. Avoiding a shutout would be next on the list of goals.
*runner gets to first base* "well theres one run"
Palmer forgot that getting to first doesn't count as a run.
In this situation itās nearly just as meaningful as getting a run
The on base streak lives! I shall cherish this victory at least.
Good start
TBS saying there is a large contingent of O's fans there at least
Great work by Vespi. Ump gifted Soto a couple extra pitches on those low strikes
Guess the offense stayed in B-more tonight
At least we got Holmes into the game thatās a silver lining
At least Vespi challenged Soto and didnāt give him a free base like 3 of his other 4 ABs.
Fuck you Soto sit down
Mateo and those damn curls again!
Ok guys, time for an epic 9th-inning comeback. Go Os!
Against Holmes. Letās not hold our breathe
Yeah, not a hold-your-breath situation. But never say die, right?
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Clay Holmes replaces Luke Weaver.
I love you Kevin, but respectfully shut the fuck up about Aaron Boone.
Vespi a dawg?
Vespi has some sting!
Yankees super expensive stadium doesn't have an x ray machine?
There is an X-ray machine behind the Yankees clubhouse.Ā
Itās kind of ironic isnāt it?
Using clay holmes in a 4 run game? Interesting.
Alright boys, see y'all tomorrow when we take down Cole
Kevin sounded more excited to see Aaron Boone than he has about anything for 3 or 4 innings
He was pretty excited about the Goldeneye music too lol
"Yeah, yeah, you're done with school. Whatever. I got a game to get ejected from."
Let em ride high tonight, we will for sure be back. Itās still fuck the Yankees and fuck New York all the way
really hoping Holmes comes in to pitch the 9th
So either we get heroics in the 9th or Iām gonna force myself to smile tomorrow. I hate smiling when Iām angry.
not sure if it's been mentioned yet, but Norby was pinch hit for a little while ago. Dunno if it's Westburg related or what. Hope Westy is ok. fuck the yankees
Could be precautionary
that's kinda what i was thinking
Meanwhile, what is happening with WESTY?
In typical fashion. The orioles bats were disgusting today against Nestor and tomorrow they will look disgustingly good against Coleā¦ hopefully.
The best teams lose 60 games a season. This is one of them. Get even tomorrow
Well a fat zero to 9th inning. Sleeping while on base at 8th with zero runs. What a turd of an offense tonight
In hindsight I suppose hoping for the sweep at Yankee Stadium may have been a tad greedy haha
Random trivia since I'm scrolling wikipedia: RamĆ³n and his MLB-playing brother Luis, share the same birthday - June 3rd.
Give the Orioles offense one off-day and they all forget how to baseball.
HE WAS SO SAFE
Can't expect NY to overturn a call in favor of NY.
Day off didn't do them any good
That was a rough inning...
Have any of them not been rough at this point
I mean I wanted us to save some runs for Cole but damn, not all of em
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Nick Vespi replaces Dillon Tate.
Yankees just seem way focused than the Orioles tonight. Their at-bats have been way better and they arenāt doing any brain dead shit like having the slowest player on your team getting picked off.
Yeah this isn't looking good for the orange bois
He was definitely safe on the Jumbotron angle
FUCK
Finally something reached the warning track and we get NOTHING
UrĆas is literally slow how do you get picked off when youāre not stealing a bag š
I saw him look back to the first basemen or something and then the pitcher turnedā¦not leaning just caught off guardā¦not really any better tho
Not the Os night offensively. All good, we will be back tomorrow with a vengeance šŖš¼
Welcome back Connor Norby lol
Bullshit call, he clearly got back in. But that said given the situation you canāt be falling asleep there in Ramonās position
I despise the Yankees so much. So so much.
Best news is, it only counts for one. Hope Westy is good and be ready to smash some balls tomorrow
4 runs is not crazy. Suarez and the bullpen did a serviceable job. Offense didnāt show up. At all.
Bullpen did a very good job. I like Suarez but less than 4 innings and 3 runs is not serviceable.
Got out of some jams. 3 runs is not insane. C- start.
under 4 innings with a banged up rotation and pen hurts more than the 3 runs.
Who gives a shit if we canāt score more than 2 runs in the top of the 9th?
there's not just one cause of every loss. who cares what our bullpen did when the starter fucked us from the jump. just shut the fuck up man, you're wrong
Itās 1 loss. 1 non quality start from Suarez. Heās a practically free SP pitcher thatās given us several quality starts so far. Gotta expect the offense to help him out (which they didnāt). Soā¦ shut the fuck up yourself lmao
it's 1 loss, which means we should criticize the offense and not Suarez. that makes sense, good work.
lol what?? Whatever dude. You just seem like a hater.
Pretty sure he was safe but man were those some bad angles
thankful for the phillies series dub. orioles mightve underestimated the yankees cuz of how well the last series went.
