Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Amy Jennings from masson how are youdoing? I'm doing great. How are
you today? Well better than theOrioles were last night. Yeah, that
was a tough one, Michael jAre we gonna blame it on the uniform
I always blame it on the uniforms. You know. I'm not a big
fan of the City Connect, butregardless, because they both had their City

(00:23):
Connect uniforms on. Somehow we justblew it last night. It wasn't a
good offensive night, and then ourmanager got tossed in the ninth inning.
There were balls and strike issues.It was just one of those nights,
right, Yeah, yeah, itwas. I mean, you can't win
baseball games when you don't score runs, right, And I feel like this

(00:44):
is really the third series in arow that the Orioles have been off to
slow starts. I mean, theydidn't break it open until the final game
of the Yankee series, and thenagainst the Reds, it wasn't until the
last game that their offense exploded.So maybe that's good a good sign for
tonight. But last night you reallysaw like it was such a juxtaposition between
these two offenses. Right, LikeI mentioned on Monday, the Orioles are

(01:07):
so aggressive at the plate this year, which is why they leave the league
in home run still because they're gettinggreat pitches early in the count. They're
not letting any good pitches go by. But it's also why they're second to
last in all of baseball and walks. And then you have the Nationals who
play small ball, right. Theyjust get on base, they'll they'll take
their walk, they get on base, and they do damage on the base

(01:30):
pass. So they're kind of tworeally different plate approaches as a whole between
these two offenses. But you haveto be happy what you saw out of
Corbin Burns. I mean, thatwas another great start from this rotation.
And I don't know. I mean, in my opinion, I think we
could be looking at the best rotationin baseball right now. What do you
think? I agree? I mean, we've got great pitching, but we

(01:51):
got to get some hits. Andyou really summed it up well, I
mean, you can't win if you'reshut out. Yeah, so last night
was a state everybody has them nowand again hopefully tonight we can at least
split this short two game series becausethere's some statistic I've been hearing that the
O's have not lost a series sincelike eighteen fourteen. Yeah, I think

(02:15):
I think it was eighteen fourteen.I think you're right. Yeah, I
don't know what was. Do youhave any idea the last time the Orioles
didn't win a series? I seriously, it's been like at least a couple
of years. I think, yeah, it's been it's been a while.
Well, it's been a while sincethey've been sweat you mean, right,
right exactly, that's what I meanto say. Yeah, yeah, it's

(02:37):
been over. I mean it's beenclose to two years. I think May
two the last time they were swept. Yeah, there you go. Yeah,
so that's I think it's the longeststreak in American League history. So
I don't know. I don't wantit to be tonight. So you know,
hopefully, you know, after agame like that where you get set

(02:59):
out, chances are the bats aregonna get going. It's a really hot
day in DC. Uh, somaybe we'll see some home runs tonight.
They're going against a lefty and MitchellParker, so you see some more ritis
in the lineup tonight. Mateo's inthere, so so we'll see. I
mean, it's it's a young pictureMitchell Parker is a young pitcher. This
is only his first handful of startsin the Big League, so maybe they'll

(03:21):
be able to get to them likethey couldn't against Trevor Williams. LUs I
know somebody will show up with abroom and try to, you know,
get under our skin. I'm gonnatake a leaf flower, and I'm gonna
I'm gonna, I'm not gonna rightthere. I'm gonna have a leaf flower
ready, anybody gets a broom outthere, getting a leaf flower in the
face, leaf flowing basketball, Ilike. So it's the Battle of the

(03:47):
beltweghs. Oh's Nats tonight Game twoand then uh, I don't have the
schedule in front of me, butI think, what don't we play like
Colorado next? Yeah? Oh,they play the Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks,
that's right. Yeah, And it'sa it's a pretty long home stand,
so a lot of time to getto Camden Yards, which will be nice.
And Nationals hits the road get awayday for them, but the Baltimore

(04:10):
gets to come home, so that'llbe nice. And then Friday night,
our owner is gonna be spraying peopledown only in Baltimore. In the splash
zone out the you know, Imean that's gonna that's gonna be hysterical.
It's gonna be hysterical. I don'tknow if he's gonna wear a suit like
he always does. Maybe it'll beswimming trunks. I guess we'll just have
to see. The funny thing isI've never seen the guy smile. He's

(04:33):
like so serious. So I meanthat's what's gonna be fun is seeing him
with that serious face. And probablyhe'll probably have a jacket, tie and
shirt on with shorts if I gotany right, Yeah, you've seen the
have you seen the Orioles Magic commercialwhere he's pushing the button and playing the
song. Yes, it's hysterical.Yes, it's so funny. So he's

(04:53):
