If they bring up an outfielder, it should be xavier avery, considering the season he is having. If he gets called up he should bat leadoff and play centerfield with jones moving to left.

Antonelli, Adams and Tolleson are all in the Norfolk lineup tonight. If one of them was going to be in Baltimore for tomorrow night's game, he probably wouldn't have started for the Tides tonight. But that's just a guess.

I'd like to see Antonelli, he got a lot of chatter this offseason.

Interesting that Gary Thorne, referring to Kelly Johnson, said the Jays are high on him and consider him "their second baseman of the future." Johnson's a good player, but he's 30 years old. Thorne gives me a headache.

Nineteen pitches but Tommy did a nice job. He faced three batters and got them all out. That's the idea. Striking out Bautista was great.

Yes! Our leadoff batter, Chavez, led off with a single.

Double for Hardy!

... and Nick takes ball four to load the bases.

Dayum. Jones scored the runner but he hit into a DP to do it.

Ah! One run with the bases loaded and nobody out. Not a good way to take advantage of that situation.

Things were shaky in the infield, too, but Hunter got the outs again. Still 1-0, good guys.

I'm bitter

Yeah, and I'm sour.

Describe the difference and you're the winner.

Nice play at third by Flaherty... good reaction/good throw.

We have to sweeten. 2-1

Hunter has thrown 83 pitches through 5 innings but he's held Toronto to 3 hits (one, a solo home run) and only walked two. He has 3 strikeouts and has looked really solid. Matt Wieters' homer off the left fielder's glove gives us a 2-1 lead with 5 innings complete.

It sure would have helped if the Orioles had made more out of that bases loaded/no outs situation in the first.

Bingo on the bases loaded debacle.

Patton on. He's good pitcher.

Your Grandson pitched one heII of a good game tonight. I just hope the pen holds the lead for him and he gets the win.

Nice job by Patton. Who will close tonight if we need one?

"Who will close tonight if we need one?"

My vote goes to Pedro Strop, oh, that's right, I don't get a vote.

O'Day finished off Mathis in a hurry.

In the Blue Jays eighth, Escobar's a RH hitter, Johnson is a lefty, and Bautista's a righty. I'd leave O'Day in for the next inning. Maybe Strop can pitch the ninth for us.
