Game Thread: 5/27 vs. Anaheim

[MarylandMan]

Yeah Nanner I know you kinda already started one of these but that article was more for the entire homestand, right? (lol I just wanted to start a thread)

Anyway right now it's the fourth and the O's are up 5-0. Geronimo and Tony B both have homers, and Sele is definitely having trouble. Sidney looks sharp and is in line for his 3rd win of the season.

Pretty cool, huh?

[MarylandMan]

Whoa no sooner do I post this thread than Melvin Mora continues his ridiculous hot streak with a monster home run! Unfortunately, nobody on base, but we're up 6-0!

:biggrinpa :clap2: :D :) :fro: :cool: :dance2: :Partyguy :jump:

[Nanner]

HOLY MOLY!!!!! MEL'S ON FIRE!!!!

:jump: :clap2: :clap: :hail:

Hiya, MM! :wavey:

Yup, the other thread was just a preview thread, so this is an OFFICIAL GAME THREAD that you started! :thumbsup: (And very cool, by the way!!! :clap2: )

Sid is mowing 'em down!!!!!

:hail:

(I've watching Yahoo Gamecast..... are you watching it on TV?)

[MarylandMan]

Yeah, good ol' Comcast... It's great to be able to see them get all these runs, but I'm starting to hate the home run ball. Michael Reghi's "SEE! YOU! LATER!!" is horrible!

Oh well, I'll take it. :thumbsup:

[Nanner]

Oh, poop. I see Anderson broke up Sid's No-No with a single.

But then he was caught stealing. :clap2: For the 3rd out. Nice.

[Nanner]

Whoa! I was just reading the game log. The Chief has thrown out two guys trying to steal?!?!? :hail: :hail:

[MarylandMan]

Yeah he sure has... it was pretty cool, it was kinda like a strike him out/throw him out, but Anderson got caught in a pickle cuz his lead was too big.

[MarylandMan]

Hmm... Top of the 6th, bases loaded, no outs.

Ah, crap... passed ball. Bases are no longer loaded, but the Angels score. 6-1, O's.

Come on, Sid. Get outta the inning and get your win!

[MarylandMan]

Well... nicely done, a double play. But another run scores. Sid gets a popout to end the inning.

O's lead, 6-2.

[Nanner]

Uh-oh. :um: I'd like a couple of insurance runs. You never know with these Angels. :Peep:


Do you think Grover will leave Sid in?

[Nanner]

WOOHOO!!! The Chief and Sparky both on with singles!!!

Mighty Mel strikes out.

COME ON, BUBBLE-BOY!!!!! GET THESE GUYS HOME!!!

:jump: :jump: :jump:

[Nanner]

BUBBLE-BOY WALKS!!!! BASES LOADED WITH 1 OUT FOR 9ER!!!!


Yay! :gt:

[Nanner]

Has my Gamecast frozen up, or are they changing pitchers?

Hmmmmmm...... very slow....... MM? Update? I see the score is now 7-2?!?!? Whoa! Did 9ER knock someone home?

Yay!!! :jump: :gt:

[Nanner]

WHOA!!!! 8-2!!!! HOW'D THAT HAPPEN?!?!?

Yipppeee!!! :gt:

[Nanner]

Okay. Top of the 7th, I see Sid's still in there, mowing 'em down. Strike out swinging, ground out, strike out swinging.

Sid..... :hail:

And I see now how those two runs scored in the bottom of the 6th. Bases loaded for 9er, he hit a sac fly, The Chief scored. Then Gibby singled and Sparky scored.

Wow. Team's on fire!

:clap2:

[MarylandMan]

Sorry, I had to go... anyway the score ended up 12-4, I was excited. Sid went the distance! Great game, any way you look at it.
