Tylor Megill (6-4, 5.17 ERA) returns to the fold to take on righthander Kyle Gibson (10-6, 4.53 ERA), no known relationship to Bob or Kirk or Paul.



Come on down to Baltimore and see!

Decent lineup



Megill will be tested early and often

The Orioles should just go ahead and change their name to The Ryans.

The low-K rate pitcher Ks four of the first five.

The other was a weak grounder.

Re: IGT, 8/5, Soldiering on in Birdland

Gibson isn't even much of strikeout pitcher.



He's sure piling them up tonight, though.

Re: IGT, 8/5, Soldiering on in Birdland

1) K, K, Weak Grounder

2) K, K, Weak Grounder

3) K, Weak Grounder, K



Anyone noticing a pattern here?

Kyle Gibson is going for his career strikeout high, I imagine.

Re: IGT, 8/5, Soldiering on in Birdland

Did Megill show anything that he can build on from this performance?

Did it look like he learned anything from his time in the minors?

Asking the folks who saw the game.



Later

Re: IGT, 8/5, Soldiering on in Birdland

Disappointed that this pitcher, Coulombe, pronounces his name Cool-lome rather than Column-Bee because it would be cool if Column-Bee could relieve current ChiSox reliever Alex Colome [Column-Ay] during a game.

The Orioles are relentless.



Look a little like the Mets a year ago, if you squint.

Re: IGT, 8/5, Soldiering on in Birdland

Given ar least a dozen opportunities to throw a runner out on the bases over the last few days (at all four bases) the Mets have succeeded in throwing out None of them.

Alonso opens the ninth wif a double.



Baty is the tying run on double deck.

Re: IGT, 8/5, Soldiering on in Birdland

Vogel with a liner, and Marte with a flail.



Two out and the tying run is named D.J. Stewart, on double deck.

A game where we trailed from the 1st, never led, and never really threatened, ... and yet this 4-run loss seemed like an improvement.

It is going to be a long rest of the season. It appears that victories will be a rare commodity (even rarer than April to July).

I put it on late, they were losing, as I listened they gave up more runs, and I switched it off. That may be the 2023 season in a nutshell.

Re: IGT, 8/5, Soldiering on in Birdland

They were in the game for about 10 seconds there. You missed it.



It was a no-win situation there in the middle innings. The Mets seemed doomed if they pulled Megill, and ultimately were doomed for leaving him in.
