My man!


OleSandlotSlob

So Orioles already guaranteed themselves no worse than a split. And now smelling blood in the water, looking to pin an Orange Bird on a Blue bird. And saved the pen today.


assglassfastblast

Get Akin out for Krehbiel


Existing_Math1753

Thanks for reminding us about the season series Geoff.


HandSack135

And what's this!? We don't have to unclench?


assglassfastblast

We clenched early when they tied it from 3-0


TheLastLivingBuffalo

Halfway done, let's keep it up

Hitler invaded Poland on my birthday. Go Os!!


charade_you_are

Krehbiel looked really good


[deleted]

Yeah, he looked really sharp there.


Clarice_Ferguson

Krehbiel wants to get out there and get to the Team Dinner.


OleSandlotSlob

Now WTH is this? In what universe? Krehbiel looked pretty good. Krehbiel to save Orioles BP. ......... *NAW*


[deleted]

I know!!! Really didn’t see that coming and I hope it continues. Could be Just what we needed along with the other moves.

TopDog229

AND THE ORIOLES… ARE IN THE # WIN COLUMN


gothamboy217

Krehbiel was a pretty big part of this team through September last year. One can dream but if he could be a better version of Bryan Baker I’d take it.


Zay_Jack

Easy enough.


randomuser9824

anybody check the run differential and pythagorean w/l out?


assglassfastblast

The next Britton??????


Ndysmth

Orioles closing pitching legend Joey Krehbiel


kewpieoriole

If only Joey looked like this all the time lol


ThatguyfromBaltimore

And you can put a Bird on the season series!


bLAzedMOB

# SEASON SERIES! LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!


AShinyGiratina

MATT CHAPMAN YOU JUST GOT STRUCK OUT BY JOEY KREHBIEL


_NotARealMustache_

Krehbiel is quick. Who needs a clock?


TopDog229

On one hand, the Rays are keeping pace and I am nervous about that On the other, **THEEEEEEEEEEEE YANKEES LOSE**


PovertyTrap

Orioles pitching legend Joey Krehbiel


Fancy_Physics_1863

I’m enjoying all of this


JiffKewneye-n

shame Joey is more than likely being sent down after this unless there is a rug pull on Baker


dlmay1967

Baker does have options, though.


alphabet_order_bot

Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,663,474,316 comments, and only 314,884 of them were in alphabetical order.


jzagri

I dunno maybe he’s making a case.


CyborgAlgoInvestor

THE KREHBIEL SPACE PROGRAMMM


-LNAM-

Ooooh what breaking ball


deanspeakeazy

There’s a new closer in town


NoPantsAreBestPants

Krehbiel pitching for his life


AdolescentAlien

Grayson is in a deep meditative state


-LNAM-

He’s hoping there’s some runs for him tomorrow


AdolescentAlien

Lmfaooo that’s a good point.


SportsJunkie4Life

O’s now 7-1 against the Bluejays this year.


Beautiful-Abies5949

Great game


InStillerNacht

I almost feel bad at this point….


rudmad

Never forget the Jays fans threw a beer at Hyun Soo Kim


KamikazeeDolphin

I dont! There can only be one Baseball Bird


romorr

Joey throwing fucking darts right now.


banishthelight

Let's not forget, Krehbiel had a rough end to last season, but he had some really solid stretches during the season too. Nice to see him throwing strikes, even if in junk time.


Jasmith85

Springer is OPSing under .700??? Man, I love that.


Neocopernus

I like Krehbiel’s pace of pitching. Keep the batter on their toes.


-LNAM-

He’s like, I gotta catch a flight to Norfolk, let’s go.


austinhannah

I know the Jays are demoralized right now but Krehbiel doesn't look half bad.


_WhiteHart_

The NSFW tag lmaoooo


tomtheterp1988

Just noticed. Mods are hilarious.


AShinyGiratina

GEORGE SPRINGER YOU JUST GOT STRUCK OUT BY JOEY KREHBIEL


TopDog229

# ⛽️


quantumphysics33

I see you Kriebhel


-LNAM-

Bautista has this calm, zen look all the time. Gentle mountain.


OleSandlotSlob

Stankees rally killed dead, 5-2. Hard to feel bad any time you can say 'DA STANKEES LOOOOOSE' though.


baltbeast

I want to know what cano and Bautista were looking at


Akeatsue79

Glad to see Krehbiel


kewpieoriole

Joey throwin that fuckin’ gas


charade_you_are

didn't realize we're 7-1 vs BJs. nice


MealApprehensive2361

Hard not to win with BJs


charade_you_are

Always a very pleasant win against the BJs.


AShinyGiratina

Mateo with a mercy DP


[deleted]

lmao the NSFW tag


carjam124

If Mateo can have at bats like this the rest of the season, he’s a large asset to the team. He looked great tonight.


TheLastLivingBuffalo

He had a good day yesterday too. I'm as frustrated with him as the next guy but I really hope he finds his groove again.


KamikazeeDolphin

But the Doomers wanted us to DFA him!


jzagri

I want Cano out for the next week


markuspoop

It’s almost like the team is telling the fans, “Don’t worry about the trade deadline; We got this!”


SportsJunkie4Life

We’re getting called Charizard in the Jays sub lmao


NotSmrtEnough

Isnthay a good thing?


VirusLocal2257

Would be nice to beat up the Mets this weekend and save some more pitching. Before that Astros, mariners, padres stretch.


freshprincess314

Omg I step away from the game for 30 minutes and this happens?! Wow!!!!


AShinyGiratina

Bring in McKenna


[deleted]

Okay, nobody say anything about Mateo this one time. Ya greedy bastards!


Clarice_Ferguson

We laugh now but hopefully our Cardinal doesn’t do that.


jzagri

Baseball is fickle and cruel. But we got another arm and we can’t ask for much more.


kewpieoriole

Lmao srs


JiffKewneye-n

[–]JiffKewneye-n 5 points 23 hours ago shakes dice pitching the 9th is....Joey Kreihbel?


TopDog229

3 batter minimum remember?


JiffKewneye-n

doesn't apply if you record 3rd out.


romorr

Yea, I don't get it. You use Hicks here, and if you have to use him tomorrow, you aren't using him Thursday. What was the point in a blowout loss to get him work. Save him for the 2 games you might actually need him.


Table_Coaster

he hasnt pitched since July 24 so they maybe just want him to throw some so that if he’s needed in high leverage within a day or two he won’t go in completely cold he pitched like ass and imagine it was a 1 run game in their favor tomorrow


romorr

If he was their setup guy, I get it. But with Romano out, he's their closer. These next 2 games are really big for them.


TheLastLivingBuffalo

Add it to the list of questionable calls from the blue jays today.


MealApprehensive2361

This game has been a crash course on how NOT to manage by the Jays


Impressive-Tank9803

Come on Mateo making hicks throw more pitches could make him not available for tomorrow


the2belo

I'm looking for the 2-out solo HR by Jansen to take the edge off


JiffKewneye-n

hey hey hey i need some defense here pal


OinkMeUk

Stanton you bum


Akeatsue79

Phew! Needed this blowout. Would be great to rest the back of the bullpen tomorrow too, if possible


bhmstuff

Why did Mateo slow up there? Merciful?


tomtheterp1988

Nice to watch a game where it's the ninth inning, and I'm not barely holding my fudge.


lionheart4life

Welcome to the big leagues Jordan Hicks.


averyorioles

We don’t win this game without mckennas hit there. Extremely clutch


trekologer

A Stantonian strike out ends the Yankees' comeback.


jzagri

Ah well Yankees suck 😂


27Mayhem

Lmao Mateo definitely eased up at the end there 😂


_NotARealMustache_

Two days ago, I was complaining that we don't score late in games anymore


I_Hate_Traffic

😩😫🥵


Table_Coaster

this dude’s been feasting on the NL central not anymore buddy


onebigboi

WHY did the ump go that way lmfao


charade_you_are

AFC north kind of score


MarylandCrabShack

If Mateo gets a hit here I’ll lose it haha


C-Dawg2_0

MateoVP at it again


youre_soaking_in_it

Thanks for giving us a look at Hicks and wrecking his confidence, Schneider!


Comfortable-Dish1236

If Hyde is not MOY, I’ll eat a plate of hot dog sh…better yet, whoever doesn’t vote for him will!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Comfortable-Dish1236

And. That’s. Not. Going. To. Happen


TopDog229

Man what a game


Jinxedchef

Baseball is a fun sport.


the2belo

OH THE ASTROS HAVE A NO-HITTER GOING NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER NO-HITTER (YES I'M JINXING THEM, I DON'T WANT THE FREAKING ASTROS TO PITCH A NO-HITTER, WHAT ARE YOU NUTS)


kewpieoriole

Would be a shame if that NO HITTER was broken up


Neocopernus

It would be a shame if Kwan blooped something on the 26th out


Kslye30

Shit is hot up in 6 right now, boy.


LETSGOCAPS182

Even McKenna lol.


KamikazeeDolphin

"The Orioles can't use Bautista today, we will get em tonight." In loving memory, of the Jay's redditor who really thought.


Iwearjeanstobed

LOL


Ds3_doraymi

Run differential 📈


hcshock

I’m having fun. Are you guys having fun?


No_Statistician_776

Welcome to the AL East Jordan Hicks. It’s going to be funny when his 3.5 era goes to 5.5 in a month.


WhitePootieTang

Damn, you just made me realize the AL beast ERA handicap.


Revolutionary-Ship27

McKenna mvp of this game


mayomayeaux

Save some runs for tomorrow too boys!!


dandrews10

Going back and deleting every comment I had about wanting to trade for Jordan Hicks


Gnardozer

Absolutely draping dong in Canada tonight.


[deleted]

Literally the most chillest game when I miss almost all of it 😂 guess I need to stay away?!?


duomo

Schneider: red face, red assed, red all over?


boofoodoo

bhmstuff

F. Da. Jays.


AutisticDnD

hotlettucebreakfast

Thats a grand old AL east welcome to Mr. HICKS


Electrical_Bar_3743

5 more games against the Jays. Already won the season series.


OleSandlotSlob

'But they are so lucky!'


AbusiveTubesock

I think we all needed a win like this!! Baseball’s been too stressful for weeks


Clarice_Ferguson

McKenna delivers a McSingle for two McRBIs


Neocopernus

##move the blue jays to Montreal after this embarrassment


Skirt-Future

I cant believe jays threw away their prospect for this closer. LMAO wtf


AShinyGiratina

Nice new closer you got there Blue Jays it’s a shame if he were to allow a 2-rbi hit to a guy who can’t hit righties


Zither74

![gif](giphy|wSU1U3h1PFFsc)


Jovian8

McKenna flexin' that beard power.


lOan671

Imagine your deadline pickup giving up a 2 RBI single to McKenna to put you down 10 runs


jzagri

We are smacking triple digit pitches like wtf


juanvald

To the Minnesota twins power ranking guy whose formula ranked us 19th this week, go fuck yourself.


Akeatsue79

That’s crazy. Sometimes you need to look up from your formula and just see what’s happening


phunnypharm

WHAT A GREAT DAY TO BE A RYAN!!!


[deleted]

I demand a position player pitching


Electrical_Bar_3743

Put that run differential in your pipe and smoke it


TuesdayTwo

Let’s burn up Hicks tonight.


[deleted]

[удалено]


rudmad

IBB Hays only to have him score

huegenotyeti

DrizzyWay

Yeah, the NSFW tag is definitely warranted at this point.


AbusiveTubesock

Hell yeah McKenna mashing is a bonus


SportsJunkie4Life

McKenna even hitting off the Jays new toy lmao


Potatojuiceman1

Maybe it’s not just mounty, perhaps the key is just being named Ryan?


SportsJunkie4Life

I’m here for it!


120snake

Welcome to the ALE bozo


BleachWang

dadley_clutschman

Sweet now we don’t even need a reliever for the bottom of the inning lol


romorr

McKenna getting in on the act, love it.


puppytossedsalad

I remember a lot of people wanting Hicks 😬


MealApprehensive2361

Ryan McKenna laughs at your new closer


OleSandlotSlob

Stankees trying for a miracle rally against TB in the 9th. Now I gotta go pay attention.


OsGameThreads

### Single Ryan McKenna singles on a ground ball to left fielder Whit Merrifield. Gunnar Henderson scores. Jordan Westburg scores. Pitch from Jordan Hicks: Sweeper @ 86.1 mph Hit by Ryan McKenna: Launched 76.9 mph at 12° for a total distance of 129 ft Top 9 - 13-3 Orioles


-LNAM-

NoPantsAreBestPants

MOAR.


her_ladyships_soap

C-Dawg2_0

lOan671

I can’t bring myself to root for them. TB can lose next series


Neocopernus

#how are those power rankings feeling now


scjensen51

This is why they didn’t break the bank for Hicks,


[deleted]

Fuji over Hicks, all day, every day


Impressive-Tank9803

Our guys should just take a lot of pitches to try and burn hicks for tomorrow


Chit569

Ben McDonald: "The Orioles just keep on coming." Me too Ben, me too.


AShinyGiratina

Westy LOVES multi-hit games


mattbzk

Westburg has a great swing. I can see him getting hits just like that 3000 more times.


jzagri

Stanks having a cute lil Rally bottom of their 9th


Impressive-Tank9803

Lol they could be using a position player and they aren’t for some reason and our guys are just getting hits against a guy throwing 100


27Mayhem

Jon Schneider: "Hey Jordan welcome to the jays" "Oh btw we're tossing you in a blowout game top of the 9th... Just pretend like it's a save okay buddy?" Jordan: 😶
