Huge Sac fly

The Rangers continue to under achieve. Kill the Yanks O's.

Come on Jim Johnson

Hamilton is slumping bad but the Rangers would be idiots to not want him back.

Here we go... JJ time. Damnit, I'm having trouble typing.

Easy now.

1 out

I still can't believe this shit is actually happening.

Once the Hardy error didn't turn into anything, I think that was that.

2 outs baby 1 MORE

One to go.

Jon Leiberman ‏@reporterjon

My son just said "mom would never let me stay up this late". I said "it's Oriole Magic son."

Can never be easy

JFC JJ

hahahahahahah **** and i jumped the gun and already started bragging on facebook

ugh

**** YEAH HUGE WIN

The Orioles have the best run differential in the playoffs.

Business-like Nate McClouth.

the Buck Showalter Showalter

Congrats O's fans. Keep it going. Hope my Royals get to do this someday.

I need to go sunday night That place is gonna be rocking.

Baltimore is going to have a good day Sunday they will have the Ravens crap on the Chiefs and the Orioles battle the Yanks

Going to be a great series. Little disappointed to be playing the O's. I'm a huge Buck fan. He was the manager of the Yanks when I was just old enough to understand baseball. I have always rooted for him. Obviously I want my team to win, but I would love to see that guy get what he deserves some day. The two bitter moments of the 1996 World Series victory was Buck and Donnie Baseball not getting their rings.

Royals fire Kevin Seitzer as hitting coach

I really hope you guys get to do this soon. I'd long forgotten how much fun it is. You can't see me, but I'm just sitting here shaking my head.

I had forgotten what it was like to give a damn about a playoff baseball game. That was fun. Interweb high five to you!

I'd just be glad to make the wild card game and lose. I just want to see my team in it again.

Enjoy. Hope you guys take it all the way.

Joe Saunders game of his life tonight coming into 0-6 and 9era in Texas.

I felt good about Saunders tonight. He's a kinda streaky pitcher and lately the streak had been good. But I must admit he made me nervous in that first inning.

I spent a lot of years trying to not give a crap. Well, they've drawn me in again. All of us, I suppose. I was just hoping for a decent year but I can tell it's gonna be devastating if they don't win it all now. But, that's the fun of it!

EDIT: Oh hell, referencing the above post: You did call a Saunders gem. I bow to you. (Not Yu.)

Enjoy the ride whether you win it all or not. The playoffs are special and this season is special for the O's. Not winning it all doesn't take away from that.

Yeah, I hear you. If they'd been on the same score losing end I'd have been ok. But now we're going to play the Yankees and I suddenly have a serious case of Give a Shit.

From this point it's all about the pitching and I like the O's arms. Should be fun.

back in March if someone would have came up to me and said the Orioles would win a playoff game before the Chiefs do I would have asked them where they get their bath salts

sports are bizarre when you are not a frontrunner fan that cheers for americas teams

Congratulations Orioles fans. Nice to see another Dallas team piss down their legs this week.

Hell to the yeah!!

Well, they got young good talent and a damned good manager. When you hire good people that know what they are doing, you can win in any league at least for a year or 2. When you dont, you dont win shit for 40 years.

Thanks

Man Sunday night is gonna be Crazy at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

Ouch. Me and my foolish decisions at 7 years old, choosing the team closest to my house and on TV every day.

Jason Hammel Vs CC Game 1

I could swear I saw Hammel in that dogpile on the field in Arlington. He had better be wearing that knee brace!

Bring on the Yanks

My God what a game. Of course, I had to be at work at 5:00am so I couldn't celebrate with you guys. Oh well, we'll celebrate after the WS win. Can't wait to face to Yanks, you know they were hoping for Texas to win.
Thanks O's for making my October entertaining. The Chiefs don't appear up to that task currently.

Yeah baby.

Yankees rotation vs O's: Sabathia, Pettitte, Kuroda, Hughes

Dan Connolly ‏@danconnollysun

The Orioles starting pitcher for Sunday's Game 1 of the ALDS will be Jason Hammel

"Things I never thought I'd see" for $800, Alex.

You know, I look at that picture, and it still doesn't seem real.

My new wallpaper. Thanks

OK O's don't let me down like my chiefs.

What's the weather look like in town?

So far no rain.

Late congrats on beating the Buffalo Bills of baseball in the wildcard game. The arrogant Ranger fans down here are under the delusion that they are an elite dynasty. As a Royals fan it's nice to still be over to hold our one WS ring over their zero.

We ruined our perfect season against N.O.

As a Cardinals fan, you guys are the AL team I am rooting for I love what your team has done this year

Roch Kubatko ‏@masnRoch

It's raining here at Camden Yards.

Roch Kubatko ‏@masnRoch

Raining harder now. Fans again heading for cover. #orioles

Jeff Passan ‏@JeffPassan

Just a guess: First pitch is going to be around 8:30 p.m. ET. Rain should clear by then and stay away rest of the night.

Jerry Crasnick ‏@jcrasnick

We're looking at an 8:40 start time.

GO O's!!!!

WOW Camden Yards is rocking

Awful start

Nate is a stud

Sweet. LEEEEEEEEEWWWWWW Ford and Nate McLouth.

Hammel is so rusty

Tied at 2. The longer this game stays close, the better I like our chances. Just like Friday night.

Holy shit O'day that was huge

O'Day was huge against Texas and huge again tonight.

Hell yeah, it was. Patton left him with 2 on, no outs and he shut that shit down. He's the best we have in the pen right now, and that includes JJ.

Brian Matusz has become a monster in that LH specialist role. Granderson's no slouch, and he didn't have a chance in that AB.



And Hardy gets it started in the 8th.

LEAD OFF DOUBLE

That was just sad to watch. Lead Off double and you cant move him to 3rd

...wasted.

To the ninth we go!

Well that's game.

You know, I was about to say that I'd rather see Matusz stay on. That HR didn't do a lot to change my mind.

Looks like we'll need to get 'em tomorrow. Damnit, JJ.

Got to win tonight.

Delayed for now god dammit I have to work at 5am tomorrow

Roch Kubatko ‏@masnRoch

Approximate 8:45 start
