Orioles vs. Astros doubleheader, Sept. 29

3rd & 7 37yd

Adam Jones spoke about his community contributions. Said he doesn’t regret voiding trade. “why would I.” And If there’s any doubt he knows Baltimore, asked whether he has any regrets he said it was taking Lombard Street some days. #orioles

Adam Jones got cheered loudly again, Justin Verlander nodded in acknowledgement, and then he took a daddy hack at a slider. This weekend is great.

Adam Jones: "This city has just supported me through everything and everything I’ve done between these lines, they’ve appreciated throughout the years." #Orioles #Baltimore

Jones on future with #Orioles : "Well, who holds the cards? I think now we kind of both do. But I’m not the one making business decisions on their regards. All I can do is make business decisions on my behalf now."

Eight of the 14 batters have struck out today through two innings as facing Justin Verlander and Dylan Bundy is made more difficult by some afternoon shadows at Camden Yards

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/29/2018 8:40:09 PM
Justin Verlander has seven strikeouts on 41 pitches in three perfect innings against the Orioles.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/29/2018 8:51:55 PM
Trey Mancini is making the kind of quick-twitch, reactionary plays at first base today that the Orioles haven't had there in several years.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/29/2018 8:57:53 PM
Adam Jones doubles to the LCF wall for the Orioles' first hit of the day, with two down in the fourth off Justin Verlander.

Correa goes the other way over the grounds crew shed. Back to back homers give #Astros a 3-0 lead over #Orioles

by Eduardo A. Encina via twitter 9/29/2018 9:33:50 PM
Carlos Correa hit a solo home run on the next pitch, the 41st off Dylan Bundy this season. The Orioles trail 3-0.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/29/2018 9:34:06 PM
Conferred with Dylan Bundy this week, and he thought we should count the washed-out start against Boston as a start made, meaning he has made 32 this season, but not the three home runs he allowed in said start, which would make 44. Counting neither probably fairest.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/29/2018 9:38:03 PM
Dylan Bundy is at 99 pitches after his three-run, 31-pitch sixth inning. Cody Carroll was up, but I'd give Bundy the first batter of the seventh so he can get recognized for posting up this year. Orioles trail 3-0.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/29/2018 9:45:14 PM
Caleb Joseph fouled off nine pitches in a 15-pitch at-bat against Justin Verlander, including six with two strikes and four straight with the count full, then singled off the glove of a diving J.D. Davis at third base. That was a serious at-bat for the Orioles third hit.

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/29/2018 9:52:33 PM
Carlos Correa decided to go tag Caleb Joseph in the basepath on a possible double play ball, and because Joseph slid or something, Cedric Mullins was ruled out at first two. Not sure what he's supposed to do.

DJ Stewart with a three-run homer off Verlander to tie the game 3-3 in the 7th. #Orioles #Astros .

The Orioles dusted off the Adam Jones Gave A Fan A Haircut video today. The guy is here with the same haircut, many years later. Who ever said they wouldn't do anything special this weekend?

by Jon Meoli via twitter 9/30/2018 1:10:04 AM
Sept. 29 seems like a fine time for Yefry Ramírez to throw a career-high 107 pitches, as in more pitches than he's ever thrown in his life. 6 IP, 5 H, 3 ER, 3 BB, 4 K, 2 HR. His ERA is down to 5.92. Orioles trail 3-1.
