Strike or ball?

This is a terrible call! Comment me and tell me what you think. Is it a ball or a strike.

Chasing history

Yesterday, Chris Davis became the 4th player in Major League history to hit four home runs in the first 4 games of the season. Today, Davis has a chance to make history: Be the first player ever to hit 1 home run in the first 5 games of the season. Chris went 2-4. Jones was 3-5 with a double, and single, and 2 RBIs.

#2. Orioles fans list their favorite Earl Weaver moments.
#3. Orioles honor Earl Weaver during home opener.
#4. Jones' RBI double scores Markakis.
#5. Jones' single ties the game.
#6. MUST C CLASSIC: DAVIS STAYS RED-HOT WITH GRAND SLAM!!!

he scene was picturesque, a threatening forecast that morphed into a sunny 60-degree afternoon allowing the sellout crowd of 46,653 at Camden Yards a perfect backdrop Friday to welcome the Orioles home to start the 2013 season against the Twins.
Following a touching tribute to late manager Earl Weaver and thunderous applause as the team's three American League Gold Glove Award winners were honored in a pregame ceremony, red-hot first baseman Chris Davis went out and made history.
With the score tied in the eighth, Davis blasted Tyler Robertson's first-pitch 86-mph fastball for a grand slam that marked his fourth homer in as many games.
"You put him in the Grand Canyon, he'll hit it out," cleanup hitter Adam Jones said of Davis, whose blast paved the way for the Orioles' 9-5 victory.
Davis joins Willie Mays, Mark McGwire and Nelson Cruz as the only big leaguers to homer in the first four games of a season. With five RBIs on Friday, Davis now has 16 this season, the most through a team's first four games since RBIs became an official stat in 1920.
"I'm more excited about the three wins," Davis said of an Orioles club that is 3-1 in its first four games. "There's a lot of good things going on in here. We started that in Spring Training. It was relaxed, we are having fun, but taking care of our business. A lot of guys stepped up and showed what they are capable of doing, and we carried that into the season so far."
No one has carried over that success at the same rate as Davis. He is also the first Oriole to hit a home run in each the team's first four games and is now two games shy of the club record for consecutive games with an RBI.
"It's extremely impressive to watch how he handles balls, especially breaking balls on the outside part of the plate," starter Jake Arrieta said of Davis, who drove the ball to the opposite field for his second career grand slam.
"I watched the replay a few times of that home run he hit. If you watch his head and his eyes, it's like his eyes light up on a ball that's a pitchers' pitch. It's not easy, [a] lefty-lefty slider like that to hit the ball the other way."
"You all know I'm usually one of those guys who can probably think back and take it [into context]," said manager Buck Showalter, who admitted Davis' hot streak is probably not comparable to anything he's seen. "I'm glad he's on our side." "That's our style, late innings," Jones said with a grin. "That's the way we play. We keep it close and somebody at the end is going to have to get a big hit. And today, it was CD."

#5. Teagarden swats a double into the gap
#6. Machado talks about walk-off win in extras
#7. MUST C CLIPS (even though it's not): MACHADO WINS IT WITH WALK-OFF SINGLE IN 14TH!!!


When Manny Machado's softly hit fly ball barely found grass under the glove of diving Rays left fielder Matt Joyce on Thursday, it meant a lot to the Orioles in so many ways.

First, it ended a 14-inning marathon and gave the Orioles a hard-fought 3-2 victory over the Rays before 25,130 at Camden Yards and completed a sweep of the three-game series. But it also meant the Orioles weren't a losing team any more and put them alone in first place in the American League East until the Yankees defeated the Red Sox on Thursday night to regain a share of the top spot. The win improved the Orioles to 81-62 and ended a streak of 14 straight losing seasons. Baltimore last finished with a winning record when it captured the American League East in 1997. The Orioles have won 13 straight extra-inning games, which extends a franchise record, and are 27-7 in one-run gamesBaltimore Orioles news, by Jeff seidel.
