Nothing like a victory to bring optimism back to the ballpark. All is right with the O’s for one night. Please don’y ever criticize Oriole fans as 30,600 showed up last night to see a 4-18 team. Okay maybe there were 7000 Sox fand present but still agreat crowd. Tejada had quite a game. He tied the game in the 8th with a 2 out solo dinger. Then Tejada got the game winning hit in the 10th.
Some problems however—Garrett Atkins seems lost at bat. In a key at bat with the O’s up 3-1 with bases loaded and no one out, Atkins hit into a weak 1-2-3 double play.
Adan Jones gets picked off first with 2 out in the bottom of the 7th.
Jim Jiohnson disappoints again—allowing the tieing run then the go ahead run on a meatball to JD Drew.
Big Poppy is finished. It’s a little and I mean very little–sad to see his skills vanish. He just doesn’t seem the same since the steroid charge. On the other hand Tejada seems like he is getting back to old ways. Oh what a difference a win makes.
