The rain delay was avoided. I actually got to see some baseball on TV! Maybe one day I will get noticed as the great writer that I am. I will eventually have the news media trying to throw press passes and money at me, just so I can write a blog for them. Lol. That would be nice.
A few things that I noticed in this game was the Orioles defense. Luis Hernandez is looking more and more comfortable every day. He made a nice diving stop but wasn't able to throw the runner out. It was still an A+ effort. Melvin Mora is showing no ominous signs of age. He made a good stop on a ball. Adam Jones ran down a ball in the gap that was a sure double or triple. He made it look routine. Pure speed.
The bats are alive an well. Just like Jamie Walker said the other day, the Orioles have been "MF'ed" by the media this year. They have a better team than they are given credit for.
The bullpen finally gave up 2 runs tonight. Couldn't blank em' forever I guess. Sherrill gets save #2 and we're only 3 games into the season. His brim still hasn't been molded. Has anyone mailed him a brim bender yet?
I got a phone call from a good friend tonight. He happened to be at the Delmarva Shorebirds game tonight. He told me witnessed 2nd Baseman Ryan Adams hit a HR dead center that cleared the SCOREBOARD. That is a monster shot. He esiimated the HR to have traveled 450ft. I find it hard to believe but I won't doubt him, I wasn't there.
I did a little digging on Ryan Adams and he is projected as a C+ prospect at best. A utility/back-up player at best.
If he keeps hitting long balls like that he won't be a C+ prospect for long.
