MLB Network does segment on Brown's swing. Everyone in clubhouse watching. It ends as Brown walks through room. Awkward.

Awkward, really? I'd be more inclined to believe that someone like Victorino was cracking jokes right after.

Wheels says that scoring runs from second, and not having them stop at third, is one the biggest and most important parts of baseball
you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

He's good.
This is a simple game. You throw the ball, you hit the ball, you catch the ball.

ESPN article.

The team did not disclose the nature of the family matter, but a source close to Ruiz told ESPNdeportes.com that the catcher's wife had a Cesarean section on Tuesday. Her doctors recommended the procedure because the baby was in an awkward position.

The baby boy, who weighed 9 pounds at birth, is the couple's first child, and Ruiz's second.

Victorino bunted twice today because Charlie asked him to work on bunting for hits. Could this mean he'll be at the top of the order with Jimmy at 5 or 6?

Wheeler said it was obstruction of the runner by Harold Garcia.

Listened to one inning and got to hear wheeler complain about mike gonzalez (of which I approve) and talk about "goofy games". Ahhhhhhhh baseball!!
Fine. You wanna act like you're two? I'll act like I'm one.

Orioles continue to pile up hits and runs. Some random fish pitching for the Phils now and he's not getting many outs.

6-1 -- 16 hits for Ballimer.

Michael Martinez goes yard -- 6-3 in the ninth.

Mayberry hits it even further off of Bratwurst == 6-4.

Now after Tuffy lines out, Pete Orr triples off of Beerbrat and we have a pitching change in the ninth.
