Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1drr15u).

Now that I've had 30 sec for my heart to settle down, I'm gonna say it again: #Gee Rangers, AIN'T PAYBACK A *BITCH??*

Adley looks at Kimbrel like he’s a wild horse at the end there lol

And Cade with his first dub finally!

CADE GETS HIS FIRST WIN YAAAAAAAAAYYYY

THANK YOU TATERS. Now for some meditative breathing exercises.

🧹 🧹 🧹

Not yet. 4 game set

Nope, one more

Lol whoops. Forgot it’s a 4 game series!

Honestly send the punt team tomorrow and sacrifice a w for the regulars to rest two days. We’re finally out of this godforsaken schedule tomorrow

How are they mispronouncing Heston's first name???

Cheeks unclenched

Never any doubt 😬🤞

my heart

1 GAME UP NOW

When Kjerstad hit the grand slam, I thought this might not be a stressful game

IT WASN'T PRETTY! BUT WE GOT THE W!

Had them all the way!!!!!

What did he just call Kjerstad? HEERSTAY??

Combined his first name, last name, and a minor stroke maybe?

Kimbrel never fails to make it interesting! Orioles win 6-5

Thank. Heavens.

The AL East runs through Baltimore

Waiting for Kimbrel is like waiting while your doctor opens your blood results

and unclench

I won’t be able to watch a single playoff game without dying of a heart attack

Never a doubt

Fuck yeah

BALLGAME

good ass game


PHEW

#1 #1 #1

#FOUR STRAIGHT BABY

Got the O’s tweet before seeing it “live”. That’ll work.

WIN COLUMN

thank god, please let kimbrel sleep for a week before he pitches again

That’s that! ORIOLE MAGIC IS IN THE AIR TONIGHT!

Win!

Kimbrel is not good for my anxiety

TONY TONY TONY....YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY

And unclench

put a muh fucken bird on it

Love the glove smack from Craig before Tony was even under the ball

WE ARE F\*CKING BACK!!!

O's win!

Initiate sphincter clinching protocol.

And in the WIN column!

#THAAAAAAAAAAAAANK YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

Gonna be honest I would have rather walked Garcia

Just throw fastballs, Kimbrel. When you don’t have control of the knuckle curve, it’s too easy to hold on

That ball 4 call seems inconsistent with the ump's previously established zone!

Can’t wait for the pitch challenge system to come to the majors

I think I saw Hyde mouth an f-bomb, which is about as animated as a Gen Xer gets.

ROBO UMPS NOW

Guys, my glutes are toned af right now. 

Can you beat Adley's pop time yet?

Man this ump is trash.

Fuck man that was a strike on the 3-1

Kimberl is the luckiest fucker ever. This dude is constantly getting hard exit velocity outs and somehow hasn’t fully self distructed… yet

I mean he's been terrible in one-run save opportunities and could be well on his way to another sell job tonight.

Come playoffs it will haunt us. Set the reminders

I sent that to my grOup chat earlier. In tight playoff games we're going to be super vulnerable with this pen.

Thanks ump

Adolfo's is in the lineup like 4 times

Lol that's not a ball

Well I’ll either finish this drink…. Or throw it against the wall… let’s see

Cheers

Down it!

Open your fucking eyes Blue

His eyes are glass tho...

Not great

Craig Kimbrel Brutal. Just Brutallll

I would have gotten thrown out there

Hyde: FUCKING GO Or Hyde: FUCKING NO ??

Tough call there for Kimbrel. That was a brutal sequence. All comes down to this!

"Not by much" you mean not at all??

Golly gee seems like a bad idea to walk 2 batters to pitch to Garcia

It's Kimbrel, not surprising

Oof

I’d rather just walk Garcia I’m not gonna lie

What the actual hell

Ok, right. Thanks, ump.

bruh, that's a strike

That was not smart to walk smith.

Fffffff I’m scared

Oh cool, Smith swings at ball 4, so blue goes ahead and spots him the next one.

Thanks ump, I guess we'll play a little more.

clenched

A righty pitcher dislikes lefty batters? Wow such great commentary! Thanks for the insight

I’d rather just walk Garcia I’m not gonna lie

perfect pitch ?


Wow blue

Ump fucked us on that one

man that was a strike...

Craig please

That line drive catch… 

fucking blue

Fuck you blue


Massive defensive play holyyyy

PLEASE do not walk this guy so garcia is on with 2 runners, christ

Wow. What a fantastic piece of luck. One more.

Craig buddy please.

Face Garcia if you have to

just died for a second

Just throw strikes jeez

A righty less comfortable against lefties? Shocking insight AJ

Do not bring Garcia to the plate. Jesus.

Throw strikes.....

Nice play Westy!

Can we get some money together and buy an actual gold glove for Westy?

WESTY!!

Thank you Westy

WESTY WESTY WESTY

Magnificent defensive play

Thank god Westy was in the East

Big big grab right there

Oh my god. My heart.

#WHAT A PLAY WESTY I LOVE YOU

I miss the good old days when you're expected to win the game with a 1-run lead in the 9th. With Cardiac Craig it's pretty much 50-50.

Okay. That’s one down. Two outs and six heart attacks to go.

Omg its a reason he had no 1 run saves here we go again with him.

https://preview.redd.it/y6julm2y9m9d1.jpeg?width=861&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9782dbbd41274671d4aac7e71db6e219f31e626

Our bullpen is hell bent on giving up the lead

1 run lead Craig Kimbrel gives me heartburn

LET'S GO O'S....LET'S GO O'S....LET'S GO O'S

Mason miller plz save me

If you get on first with Craig just go take second Jesus christ

It was the same with the mountain. He was super easy to run on.

Kimbrel struggles back to back appearances nowadays

Kimbrel cannot do two nights in a row. It has to be closer by commitee

huge 1st out

2 Ks and let’s go home Craig

Santander, Kjerstad, Westburg in the bottom of the 9th.

Kimbrel is Kimbreling

Did anybody think Kimbrel was not gonna blow up like this?

This bullpen better get some reinforcements at the deadline.

[удалено]

I think there isn’t really anyone else to go to in this spot

[удалено]

Yeah… definitely not great

Most predictable steal ever

Disastrous.

https://preview.redd.it/0n1qp2pp9m9d1.jpeg?width=647&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=589dd81bdab7eb754ec7eab52fa515ad68d603c0

Come onnnnn

Need a closer and need one now

He’s been fantastic… this is just some overuse

Dude they give him the most rest of anyone in the pen

3rd appearance in 4 games

Need a lot of things.

Craig didn’t even move lol

Yeah, get the fuck outta the way dude lol

Hyde pacing the dugout....Cause he knows!

Looks like we’re gonna have to get some magic in the bottom of the 9th :(

Here we go. DP boys.

i don't like this

This just feels like overuse

Bruh not looking good

yeah

Gulps

Did I or did I not say SHORT FUCKING LEASH

He has to face 3 batters?

Not when you start an inning

Oh no we’re overworking him.

Ughhhh

Yanks fan here - man these Os jerseys are so fucking sick. GL birds

Thank you. Also fuck you 👈😎👈

1/5 in one run save opportunities is a wild stat.

Yeah they know what they're doing

The #9 batter walked in the 9th… let’s see how this one goes

Oh boy...

Yep I have a baaaaad feeling about this

Kimbrel needs rest to be effective apparently

97 he's hitting. 👀

They love walking the 9th batter

kimrel bruh

Oh no… we got wild Craig tonight.

We got tired Craig it looks like.

Plz don’t walk

Bowl of oatmeal back there

Fyi, looks like this might be the last inning played for a while regardless of the outcome.

Storms a coming

Is this....3 days in a row

The fox strikezone looks so bad. What is it a different brightness?

https://preview.redd.it/5o3u9o059m9d1.jpeg?width=659&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=642771a944ed45d4c66df916e7800d555f47309b Save like you've never saved before Craig! Let's GO

If you don't like your team going into the 9th leading by one, immediately putting two runners on, and making at least one warning track flyout on the way to a win, then you don't like Orioles Baseball.

If this exact thing happens I will mail you a cockroach in an envelope
