My dream today would be a CG shutout from Matusz w/102 pitches thrown. Thusly saving the bullpen and then it's bring on the Nats. #Gnats
3-man crew for todays game. Ed Rapuano had to leave for family reasons. #royals #orioles
I swear the #orioles get kids day in Kansas City every year
Sweet, O's & Royals is the free MLB.tv game today and it's starting now! #orioles
Nothing like playing 15 innings last night & having to turn around for a 1p start. #royals #orioles #showandgo
Game 2 of 2. Baltimore Orioles vs. Kansas City Royals. Brian Matusz vs. Luke Hochevar. Start scheduled at 1:10pm
If the Orioles win today, it means they hate school kids. #Royals
#LetsGoOs ... Watching the game while sorting laundry #Orioles #Royals
BAL 0 KC 0 [Bottom 1st] [0 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... No one on [P: #17 Brian Matusz] [B: #1 Jarrod Dyson]
Hochevar strikes out Betemit, but he threw 24 pitches in the first inning.
The spot the #Royals are in right now is exactly what the #orioles we're always in last year. Just trying to prevent a huge inning
#orioles put runners on 1st & 2nd but don't score. Hoch 20+ pitch first inning.
Orioles 0 Royals 0 [Bottom 1st] [0 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... No one on [P: #17 Brian Matusz] [B: #1 Jarrod Dyson]
A 24 pitch inning for Hochevar where he doesn't give up a run is a rousing success. On pace for 3 2/3s #royals
Adam Lind was sent down today. His .586 OPS is still better than J. Rollins (.574), G. Sanchez (.559), E. Hosmer (.557) and A. Pujols (.555)
The spot the #Royals were just in is the spot the #orioles were always in last year. Just trying to prevent a huge inning early on
Or not. Importantly though, Hochevar is already up to 24 pitches.
That Betemit strikeout to end the 1st means the #orioles have the most strikeouts in MLB (310). Tied with OAK entering today (309).
Jim Hunter is so sycophantic when calling games that I almost feel like turning off the #Orioles and getting back to work. (I said almost.)
I think Brian Matusz does the damn thing today. #QualityStart
Everytime i hear Hochevar is starting at the K I just nervous. Or when he starts in general.
Alright #Royals. We gave that game away last night. Let's get a win today. #justwinbaby (#Orioles #Royals) #ys
BAL 0 KC 0 [Top 2nd] [0 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... No one on [P: #44 Luke Hochevar] [B: #19 Chris Davis]
Amazing workout :) #bestfeeling now about to watch my O's #Orioles
For the radar gun enthusiasts: Brian Matusz's fastball 93-94 in 1st inning. Hit 94 multiple times. #orioles
Orioles 0 Royals 0 [Top 2nd] [0 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... No one on [P: #44 Luke Hochevar] [B: #19 Chris Davis]
Afternoon #Orioles. That should really keep me productive at work....
Loving the energy of all the 'School Day at the K' kids at the #Royals game today! #kcroyaltweets
If you're stuck in the office, all you're missing on MASN is Hunter trying to get Bordick to sing the Luna jingle. Uh... #orioles
Monty sounds like a nerd. Rex sounds like a stoned fratboy. Your tolerance of one over the other depends solely on you. #Royals
Buck Showalter out talking to the 3rd base ump during the break. Ho hum. #royals
BAL 0 KC 0 [Top 2nd] [0 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... Man on first [P: #44 Luke Hochevar] [B: #11 Robert Andino]
It's nice to see The K busy during a day game, even if it's Student Day. #royals
BAL 0 KC 0 [Top 2nd] [1 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... Man on first [P: #44 Luke Hochevar] [B: #3 Ryan Flaherty]
How could that ump even see if he swung, that's just dumb #Orioles
BAL 0 KC 0 [Bottom 2nd] [0 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... No one on [P: #17 Brian Matusz] [B: #4 Alex Gordon]
just think if all of a sudden all the kids at the K today started storming the field. #royals
#Royals offense has to get back on track today. Facing a hittable LHP with a strong wind blowing out to left. Gotta take advantage.
Still haven't heard Hudler, Monty and Ryan are calling today's game. #royals
So with that Chris Davis caught stealing (yes, really), the #orioles - already the worst SB% team in MLB, fall below a 50% success rate.
Brutal at bat by Flaherty. 6 pitches within 6 inches of the same central spot and he cant make contact. #orioles v #royals
Nice play by Escobar to get that tag down! #Royals
Orioles 0 Royals 0 [Bottom 2nd] [0 Out] [0 balls] [0 strikes] ... No one on [P: #17 Brian Matusz] [B: #4 Alex Gordon]
In other news, in his start today at Kansas City, Brian Matusz's fastball is sitting 93-94 mph!
Strike 'em out throw 'em out double play! I'll take it! #Royals
