8-2 win over the Jays, the AL East belongs to the Birds of Baltimore. In September of 1997 I wasn't even three years old yet. If we win the World Series, I don't care what I have to do or what classes I have to miss I am going to the parade.

Thanks for reiterating the point you made just 8 days ago.

I thought Jake was overly optimistic before Spring Training, but his wins prediction for the O's was pretty spot on. My prediction for Boston...not so much. :oops:

I would love to see a rematch of the '79 world series, with the same result - Bucs in seven!

(I know, I know, but a guy can dream can't he?)

In my office in the library, I brought in my Buck Showalter bobblehead for good luck! Feel free to come by and pat his head. :D

Keep it up. It's working.

I had a teacher in middle school that was Buck's uncle or some close relative. He was "Mr. Showalter." Looked a lot like Buck, who I also refer to as "Mr. Showalter."

I saw this on FB and had to share it:
While tutoring an 8 year old this morning...
Child: why do you have an orange duck on your phone?
Me: Lol! It's not a duck it's an Oriole
Kid: Like the cookie?
Me: No, that's an Oreo. This is an orioLe
Kid: oh is that a team?
Me: Yes, it's a baseball team I like...I...
Kid: (interrupting) Sorry. I don't follow football.
Kids say the darnest things!
Go Oreo Ducks...my favorite football team!
— feeling amused.

Man, it's fun to be an O's fan right now. Offensive barrage last night, and heck of a comeback today. The Tigers' bullpen stinks. Shame to have that good of starting pitching and no backup. But I'll take it.

Buck has all the right pieces on his roster, and he knows how to use them. What a chess match!

If Orioles can get by Blue Birds and advance, they could reach World Series................................if they get decent pitching.

Buck should be fired for not going with Britton at any point. Brutal mismanagement.

3 worst consecutive pitches in MLB playoff history

Britton (or Bundy) could have likely gotten them out of the inning. Britton has a 0.55 ERA and never even got into the game.

At least for one game, the Orioles were Yankee killers with Pedro's 14th inning GRAND SLAM last night. :shock:
