Yankees At Orioles 11 April Game Thread

[dandrews]

He has about 640 PAs against left handed pitching specifically... That's about one year's worth of data, in terms of plate appearance for a season. Focusing of course on one category. Sorry for not being clear...

Yeah you're right. My mistake.

Still firmly believe he's the best option on the team for DH (against LHP). Granted, that's not saying a whole lot though.

[dandrews]

Maybe back when they first instituted the position, but not now.

Always thought it was funny that the Orioles got around 4 homers from the shortstop position in as many years right before Hardy came.

[Jimmy Jazz]

Sabathia at 112 pitches, figure that's it for him. Pretty impressive considering I think he was at 70 after 3.

[Jimmy Jazz]

Nice outing from Arrieta, he has looked good so far this year.

This may be the smallest crowd at a OPCY Yankee game

[Jimmy Jazz]

At least these are competitive games, getting blown out by these guys is the worst.

They can't even count on that anymore to pad attendance.

[larsanderson]

O's have very poor infield defense.

[Mr. Buzzcut]

Now that's solid baseball!

[dandrews]

Feel it happen

[Jimmy Jazz]

Ooh, thought that was Ball 4.

[dandrews]

That's horrible

Wieters has had to throw over the Yankree batters twice this series. Last night and the steal just now, the Yankee batter 'inadvertenty' moved onto the plate.

What's the deal with that? I've always wondered why the batters duck down, do they have to or can they just stand there?

They don't have to get out of the way if they are in the batters box, but if they happen to move onto the plate because of their swing, they need to get out of the way.

I was just commenting that the last 2 steal attempts on Wieters, he has had awkward throws over top the batters.

[Mr. Buzzcut]

Has Gregg lost weight?

[Jimmy Jazz]

Okay please drive him in and end it now, no extras.
