Beer and Birds

Unconditional love for the Orioles, Ravens, beer, bacon and steak.

Fact: the Orioles front office is one trillion times better at running a baseball team than 100% of Twitter.

Crew chief Hunter Wendelstedt and 2B umpire Nic Lentz explained the Ernie Clement call to a pool reporter and said Gunnar Henderson was still in the act of fielding when Clement established his wide base path.

“It was actually a very gentlemanly thing to do,” said Wendelstedt.

@AnneStull @Orioles @MLB @MLBUA Garbage game by that crew. They should be ashamed

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

The second base umpire, who apparently was watching something other than second base, completely hosed us on that call. And it wasn’t even close.

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

Forget analytics…If you watch the games, it’s clear something has changed with the Orioles.

@Steveonbaseball Was just thinking this yesterday. As great as the offensive spark has been, the rotation has been much better

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

@EdOverRay The energy and knowledge of this coaching staff is such a breath of fresh air

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

@mvpfloorservice I know he has a contract and that’s a fact i hate

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

I’ve been as critical as anyone with the Orioles this year.

Right now they are playing very very very good baseball. Keep this up, stay competitive, and they might have a real shot at this.

@relishdaddy Orioles could use some clubhouse equipment like a toilet or things to clean toilets. Even trade

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

@realbenmcdonald @RedSox @Orioles Kinda makes sense though since he couldn’t see the corner from the coach’s box. Probably should’ve taken a look and gotten out of there though. He’s lucky the throw wasn’t up the line

Tyler O’Neill, with one of the worst averages I’ve ever seen with this many ABs, hitting seventh and failing miserably

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

“Colton Cowser, you’ve been swinging the bat much better lately!”

“Thanks Skip.”

“That’s why I want you riding the bench for the first game after our day off. I have a hunch that Tyler O’Neill is due.”

“…Moo?”

@relishdaddy I’m with you. We know who the real enemy is

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

Gunnar Henderson is the Orioles’ superstar shortstop.

Compare his numbers to those of one time Oriole Deivi Cruz, who is not a superstar.

[StatLogicSports @G_LovesWinning]

@OriolesParade How’d this bitch do today?

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

@Steveonbaseball Young has looked real good and love the new pitches for these guys

[Past The Eye Test @PastTheEyeTest]

Jeff Hoffman: pitching masterclass. 110 stuff+ on the day. He hypothetically just punched out the side. Unfortunately, we live in reality, where Jeff Hoffman has a -56 DAWG+ and a -80 NUTS+, which are the worst marks in the league.

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

That couldn’t have happened to a more deserving pitcher than Jeff Hoffman

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

@atrainxprs @ByMattWeyrich I got a good laugh out of this

[Beer and Birds @BeerAndBirds]

What a perfect inning!

Please don’t mess it up.
