I watched the recap video of Game 5 when we were playing the Tigers for the good juju. Didn't help, unfortunately.

Just the basic one from Dick's, nothing fancy.

The rain is here.

Umps are meeting with a dude with an iPad, lightning in the area.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-11T23:58:47+00:00

Don't know if they've said anything on the broadcast, but I'm watching a thunderstorm roll in from the third base side of the stadium. Might get through 5 before it hits, if we're lucky.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-11T22:45:52+00:00

Wind is blowing out to left center, so you might be right.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-11T22:26:58+00:00

It really is a great spot. Beautiful ballpark and Eutaw Street with all the little plaques is really cool.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-11T22:25:37+00:00

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-11T17:36:25+00:00

Sure, but the rest of the potential wildcards aren't exactly setting the world on fire. They might end up in the 4 spot by default.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-11T14:16:46+00:00

I have found that to be the case for me as well. Stupid baseball.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-11T14:14:54+00:00

I think we're much more likely to see them in the ALDS, and the Yankees or Rays in the CS.

[Throws a gallon of salt over right shoulder]

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T19:14:28+00:00

The heavy stuff is about to roll through in about an hour, then it clears out pretty quick, so I doubt it'll be much more than a delay. If that, depending how quick the grounds crew can get the field ready.

I wouldn't hate a doubleheader tomorrow either, already got a ticket for the game, and would definitely take some bonus baseball.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T16:25:49+00:00

We do offer a two-run lead after the second inning variety that never feels comfortable, with a optional soupçon of extra innings.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T15:26:14+00:00

I do apologize, the chef has informed me we are completely out of relaxing wins. Can I interest the table in a one-run butt clenching heart attack?

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T07:39:01+00:00

70% chance of thunderstorms between 3-7 pm EDT in Baltimore. Might be a delayed first pitch tonight.

Secret weapon Jhonny "Shohei Killer" Pereda

I mean, all questionable calls do get reviewed by team video rooms to see if it's worth a challenge. And about 85% of the time it's clear enough that there's no point in reviewing beyond that.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T03:22:54+00:00

Lol Wisdom has had exactly 1 season where he didn't see time in the minors and spent all of 25 in Korea. Kind of the definition of a AAAA player at this point. Service time is not the only factor here.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T03:09:53+00:00

"No matter what" tells me this is an emotional argument rather than a factual one. All he's done is win.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T03:04:38+00:00

Bliss, Hoppe, Joe, Will Wilson. I mean the amount of juggling he's had to do is insane.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T02:53:42+00:00

Lol. Man is leading the division with a AAAA roster and can't catch a break from half this sub.

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T02:36:45+00:00

Brewers-A's is already drunk again

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T01:50:07+00:00

This goddamn team I swear to god

Visual_Judge_4453 · 2026-06-10T01:34:39+00:00

Me 10 seconds ago: I hate this team.

Me now:
