[Nanner]

ALLRIGHTY!!!!!! WE'RE IN THE TOP OF THE 4TH!!! O'S LEAD, 1-0!!!! WOOHOOO!!!

:jump: :jump2: :jump: :jump2:

The Mighty Unstoppable Mel Mora reached 2nd on an infield hit in the 1st, and then 9er doubled him home.

Thank you, 9er. :luvkiss:


Oh-oh. Score is now tied. Ray Lankford just homered off Travis Driskill. Ooh. I bet he's pissed.


:pissed:

And to get outta the inning, Ron Gant grounded out to Tony B at 3rd, Bubba Trammel flied out to left field, then Deivi Cruz singled, and Wiki Gonzalez doubled, but Cruz was thrown out at home plate!!!! Wooohooo!!!!! Got outta the inning with only 1 run!!! I gotta go check and see who assisted at that putout at home.

[Nanner]

Oh, my, my!!!! :uhoh: THESE GUYS ARE ON FIRE!!!

Tony B leading off the bottom of the 4th, and he doubles!!!

Marty Cordova, playing left field tonight, doubled and Tony B got home!!!

2-1, O's, no outs!!!

Oops. The amazingly striking looking Geronimo Gil strikes out swinging.

Here's the amaziing Bordy. :lust: 1 out, Marvelous Marty standing on 2nd.

Waiting for his pitch, he takes ball 2. WAY TO BE PATIENT, SWEETIE!!!


AAaaaaand he takes ball 3.

WOOHOOOO!!!! BORDY WALKS FOR THE 2ND TIME IN AS MANY AT-BATS!!!

That's ma man. :luvkiss:

1 out, 2 guys on, 1st and 2nd. And Jerry Hairston Jr. steps to the plate.

[Nanner]

That out at home earlier was Cordova to Hairston to Gil.

Yes. Well done.

HOLY MOLY!!!!! :uhoh:

What an inning!!!

Where was I? Oh, yeah. Jerry Hairston was at the plate. He doubled and Marvelous Marty scored and Bordy went to 3rd! Then Mighty Mel singled and Bordy and Jerry Hairston scored!!!

SCORE IS NOW 5-1, ORIOLES!!!

With only 1 out!! :uhoh:

Mighty Mel goes to 2nd on a wild pitch. Brian Roberts singles, Mighty Mel to 3rd. Gary Matthews goes down swinging.

2 out, men on the corners for 9er.

And now either GameCast is frozen, or they're takin' their pitcher out.

[Nanner]

Yup. Pitching change. Myers now pitching for the Pads, and 9er goes down swinging.

...BUT 4 RUNS SCORE IN THE INNING!!!!

:jump: :jump: :jump:

[Nanner]

Okay.!!! :biggrin: Top of the 5th and Travis has a bit of a cushion to work with, I would say!!!

Vasquez bunt singles, Mark Kotsay grounds into the beautiful 3-6-3 double play.

And D'Angelo Jimenez grounds out to Jerry at 2nd.

Nice! :biggrinpa

[Nanner]

Bottom of the 5th, Rodney Meyers pitching to Tony Batista, and he grounds out to 3rd.

Marvelous Marty strikes out swinging.

Geronimo singles to left.

Oh! Here's Bordy at the plate!!! :lust:

Aaaaaand Mikey flied out to right.

Innie ovah. That was fast.

[Nanner]

Top of the 6th.

Travis Driskill being his fierce self.

Ryan Klesko flies out to deep right.

Ray Lankford lines out to center.

Oops. On a 2-1 count, Ron Gant homers to left center.

Score now 5-2, Orioles.

And now Bubba Trammel strikes out swinging.

Travis is doing great, except for those 2 dingers. :biggrin: :uhoh:

[Nanner]

Okay, bottom of the 6th.

Jerry Hairston fouled out to the catcher.

Mighty Mel flied out to left.

The fabulous Brian Roberts flied out to deep right center.

Well, that was fast. :hmm:

[Nanner]

Top of the 7th. Travis Driskill gets Deivi Cruz to ground out to 3rd. Then Wiki Gonzalez singled.

Pitching change!!!

BJ comes in to relieve Travis.


:uhoh: HELLO!! Ramon Vasquez down on 4 pitches!! - Ball, Strike looking, strike 2 swinging, strike 3 looking. :yikes:


And Mark Kotsay flied out to right on the 2nd pitch. (First one was a strike.)

Whoa. Way to go, BJ!!!! :uhoh:

[Nanner]

Well, poop. This certainly has been a poopy top of the 8th.

BJ Ryan loaded the bases. Yes. Loaded the bases.

He walked D'Angelo Jimenez.

Then Ryan Klesko singled.

Then BJ hit Ray Lankford.

Then Willis Roberts came in to relieve BJ.... who really must have needed some Pepto Bismal by now.

Then Willis walked Ron Gant (this was gettin' ugly, I tell ya.... oooooogly!), and Jimenez scored.

Then Bubba Trammel singled and Klesko and Lankford scored.

Then (isn't this fun, so far? :hmm: ) Deivi Cruz flied out ... finally... an out... but Gant moved to 3rd.

Wiki Gonzalez popped out to Jerry Hairston.

Then Buddy Groom came in to relieve Willis, who went to join BJ in a Pepto Bismal cocktail.


And Buddy Groom faced Julius Matos, and he went down swinging for the 3rd out.

I think that's all.

So the score is now tied - at 5.

Okay, O's, time for a rally!!!!! :jump: :jump2:

[Nanner]

Still tied at 5 and we're going into the bottom of the 10th.

Yessireebob, extra innings. After the top of the 8th was over, nobody scored. Jorge Julio pitched the top of the 10th, and nobody scored. Now we are going to have Tony B, Marvelous Marty, and Brook Fordyce, who is now catching, because Chris Singleton was put in to run for Geronimo in the 8th, when he doubled.

Soooooooo....... here we go!!!



TONY BATISTA!!!!!! HOMERUN!!!!!!
