Not only do we have to beat Lord Pythag but now we have to escape the baseball gods...

The Baseball God's still have our back...I think...

I love this team

Nice poke by Wheets and a great Jump by Jones to score easily.

Poor Davis smoked one, but right to Scott.

After four games with attendance in the 40's for Yanks, O's draw 23-plus for Rays.

Not ideal, but with 160K over the weekend, people may have picked their spot. Sounds like more than 23K on tv.

It always angers me seeing empty seats. I know there's hate for Angelos, but show up and support the team. The Rays do the same thing in Tampa. The Orioles don't have the problems that the Rays allegedly do...so there's no excuse not to pack CAmden Yards every night and cheer on the team on their run to the playoffs.

Chris Davis is strong as an ox.

[Fight4RGIII]

No one man should have all that power.

Selfishly I agree with you, but it has just gotten so easy to watch sports on TV. The comfort, cost, and experience is great...especially for people who work and have kids. Every now and then, attending a game is fun (I've been twice this year). But more often than not, I'm happy to watch on TV and still go right to bed after JJ slams the door.

the bullpen needs to tighten up. They've been very shaky in late innings lately. Strop has been pretty much useless in his last 6 or so appearances, o'Day is making things interesting, even Johnson has become hittable.

they were mowing down teams early in the year.. with the situation we're in and the teams we have to face... they have to get better. It's key. I really miss Patton.

I'd be with you if the Orioles had some season ticket holders. They currently have only a few thousand and the team is simply not going to get 37K advance sales for a midweek game, especially just after a high demand series against NY. The O's played the Rays essentially the same day last year (Sept 12, 2011) and drew half as many fans. 100% improvement is pretty good. The White Sox have been in first for a while (in Media Market 3) and have drawn 100K fewer fans this year.

Got heeeemmmmmmmmmm

[TheDoyler23]

Two Js, two, two run dingers!

Good to see guys heating up when it matters. Huge series.
