Official 2012 Baltimore Orioles Thread

I never loved watching a team more than this team. Maybe the 2002 MD Terps but this team has the feel of destiny to it. It's our year. The Yanks better keep winning if they want first cause we ain't losing.

I DVRed the game but only recorded 3 hours and 30 minutes. I was watching the game and was in the 5th when I got a text from a friend saying, "O-mazing!" I knew I shouldn't have read texts....but anyway now I'm glad he texted me because I would've watched all that with no finish.

Heard Machado made an nice defensive play. Okay just saw that play, veteran smart move by the 20 year old rookie. Pump then right back to 3rd, brilliant. Saw the McClouth walk off. Beastly. Absolutely beastly.

Gonzalez got out of some tight situations with some good pitches earlier in the game. I hope Betemit can continue to bring a hot bat, that would make up for Nick being out.

Went to the game tonight. The crowd was great, even if the attendance was only 26k. Everyone was standing from the 8th inning on and chanting loud. Orioles magic was played after the Nate game winner. The magic is definitely back!

The intensity of the crowd definitely came through on TV. It reminded me of O's games when I was in high school (94 - 98). I'm also loving that we (as fans) are turning up the orange when we go to games. It looks good on television.

Another great win for the orange and black last night. What a play by Machado! Kid is only 20 years old!!

Day game today guys with a 12:35 start time then off to play the red hot A's in Oakland.

Go O's!!!

I honestly have no idea how they keep doing it, but I love it! 1 more win to end our 14 year losing season streak!

Long tough road trip coming up.

Long tough road trip coming up.

This weekend is huge! The A's are playing some amazing baseball right now. It's not going to be an easy series.

Machado's play last night was absurd. Just ridiculous. Props to JJ Hardy, too.

Maybe I'm just conditioned at this point...but I also worry about the Seattle series...AND the Boston one especially. They'll be out for revenge from last year.

80 wins guys, 80 wins!!! Haven't seen that in....oh....15 years. One more to get to the elusive .500. Day game, so if we win, technically we'd be in first place by 1/2 a game until 11 PM tonight, depending on what the Spankees do.

Saw this on Orioles Hangout...

Hankuna Machado!

[Dukes and Skins]

Seriously listening to Gary Thorne the last month has been the best thing ever

[Ellis]

Don't forget!!! Today's game is on at 12:35pm.
It's nice to be able to listen to the O's on the radio while at work.

I just looked at the schedule. Why did they schedule the Toronto makeup game on the first day of the series after we get back from a 9 game west coast road trip? I would have made the double header the 2nd day. We're off on the 27th (Thursday), but Toronto hosts the Yankees.
