ST GDT 3/1/21: Orioles (Lopez) @ Phillies (Nola)

[julio]

Here we go! Not attempting PbP, just some summaries...

[julio]

Nola gives up a single, HR to cede two quick runs, then sets down the next three batters.

Phils strike back! McCutchen single, Segura double, Knapp double (2 runs score), Miller BB, Quinn single, Joyce hits into a 5-2-3 DP, Maton lines out.

2-2 after one inning.

Phillies up 4-2 thanks to a Matt Joyce 2-run HR to DEEEEEEEP RF.

Definitely closer to the A team today for the home game. I assume the share of regulars in road games this Spring will drop to a historic low and pretty much reflect the MLB minimums.

Top of 5th and it’s tied 4-4. Rosso gave up a couple of runs; two HBPs eventually come around to score.

[zambonir]

Bryson Stott in, playing 2B.

[David_Criss]

Reading the box score. Did Moniak really catch?

[andyb]

Doubting it though I see that Duran as DH got replaced by Cabral and then O'Hoppe. Imagine they did some sort of defensive double switch and the "pitcher must bat when the DH plays the field" rules don't apply in the Spring.

Rosso gives up no hits and no walks in his inning but two runs. Started off hitting the first to hitters he faced and they eventually both scored. Strange inning.

Another 7 inning game. Sounds like the first two weeks will mostly be 7 inning games.

I looked at the boxscore first and had to try and figure out a pitching line of 1 0 2 0 0 0 ....I figured it had to be a combination of error and HBP to make sense. It just looks really funny 2 runs (0 earned) with no hits, BB, K's.

Watched part of the game during the inning Joe Giraradi was in the booth. It was good hearing him say positive things about players. He really likes Logan O’ Hope.

[BostonRoss]

These box scores will be funny. Yesterday Hennigan got credit for 2/3 of an IP even though he never got the last out.

[zambonir]

I guess it could have been 2/4ths of an inning?

Had to smile at your choice of words since Joe was in the dugout and the announcers were in a TV studio in Philly. But yeah, good interview.

Meanwhile sounds like we will be hearing more of Ruben this year. He's not bad but I feel like he'd make more sense on a studio show.

[schillingfan]

Yeah, one of those baseball terms. Broadcaster are in the booth! And on the air!
