Nah, just feels that way is all. The Yanks are in Baltimore for 3 games and this has one of those nail in the coffin vibes about it for the Yanks. Yet even if they do get swept our boys aren’t out of contention for that second wild card. Still, for the first time in a long time the locals might cheer louder than the out of towners.
Good news is that Michael Pineda returns to the team to start on Wednesday.
Hey, anything can happen.

Just heard the news: Robin Williams is dead.
Nice start for Brett
[1] Suicide, maybe. Damn.
[2] Now we know why he bats lead-off and not third.
Wow, filthy change-up to get Jones.
Or, not get him, but you know what I mean.
I suspect tomorrow's game will be rained out. The storm we had today is heading east. Got 1.75 inches of rain.
This is a good start to the second. Kind of lucky, actually. Let's capitalize!
[7] We're supposed to get the heavy stuff on Wednesday. NYC maybe Tuesday night, yeah.
Oh, Baltimore, must be even a bit earlier than NYC.
Oh, man.
Better to be lucky than good.
Unbelievable.
When they say you can always see something for the first time. ...
That was certainly . . . Interesting.
Comedy routine by the Orioles in tribute to Robin?
Hoo boy, now Schoop.
So, the Orioles are not good at fielding.
Watching the O's feed. Palmer is excellent tonight. 56 pitches by Norris.
[13] that sequence reminded me of my 9-yr old grandson's team
Hey, nice inning for C-Cap!
Ouch. Oh, man.
I like Machado, he seems like a guy you'd want on your team. And that's a previously-injured knee, right?
Ouch. Hope it's not an ACL.
Oh that looks bad. Poor guy.
[18] other knee. The previously good one.
Man, hopefully that's just a hyper-extension and not something more serious.
Damn.
I think the Orioles have Jones tied up for cheap. I wish we could get him.
He twisted his leg in a gruesome manner before he fell, and he's the one who hurt himself against the Yanks by jamming his foot at first base, also a gruesome injury
Yeah, the other knee. I thought it was the front knee that collapsed, but it was the back one.
And Cruz pretty clearly was hit.
WTF is taking so long??
Okay, feel happy to get out of that inning. It must have lasted 40 minutes.
Still sore about Mark, Baltimore?
Aw crap.
Uh. Poo.
Knee sprain for Manny? I'm not betting on that.
7 K and no BB. One HR. C-Cap deserved better than 4 ER.
At least tie it up.
Blergh. Night all. Maybe there's some Robin Williams show on TV.
so...i see we still suck at the baseball.
shoulda been ball 4...
chase whitley is not good at pitching.
double digits for the boids.
BOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
I could get register an extra base hit vs. whitley.
this one goes to eleven
Howdy, Nostra!
Switched from the Yankees spitting up all over themselves to the A's vs Royals.
GREAT atmosphere in KC to close out a close game!
GO ROYALS!
cano is killin' it in the field tonight. man, i miss watching him on defense...
