He/him. Baltimore, MD. Let's go O's!
Thank you to Tyler O'Neill and Coby Mayo for the back-to-back home runs, they were a lovely birthday gift. This is 44 when you're melting.
FWIW, the question was "who was the MVP of the 1983 World Series", and he did get it right.
I'm very disappointed that the Orioles chose a guy named Dennis Martinez Jr. to be the between-innings trivia contestant and the answer was NOT Dennis Martinez.

Boy, remembering THIS guy after yesterday's deadline debacle is salt in the wound for Birdland.

I'm rushing right out to get my authentic Fanatics Nike jersey with "PROSPECTS" on the name plate. Bloodless Quants forever!
The Rutschman era in Baltimore is over but the O's get an impressive haul of prospects in return. www.mlbtraderumors.com/2026/08/red-...
Hey, is this where we're crashing out about the Orioles? 🧵 (6 posts total)
After the Orioles bumped our partial season ticket plan from 29 to 40 games this year, I renewed w/some trepidation. My reward was seeing them wallpaper the ballpark w/ads and roll out a frustrating team that was less than the sum of its parts. Still, they were 2.5 gms out of a playoff spot. (1/2)

Same with gender-affirming care for kids. Good-faith concern would be, "gee we should be making sure kids are appropriately assessed before receiving care and don't end up regretting it," realizing the numbers are tiny, kids are assessed and regret rates are miniscule and then dropping it.
I missed innings 10-12 of the Orioles' bonkers comeback win today because I had a therapy session. There's a punchline in there somewhere.
This is the team that's pressuring me to renew the season tickets I've held for 14 years. Gotta opt out by August 7 if you don't want to auto-renew! Otherwise we'll charge you the first installment on August 11. For 2027. The season that starts 7 1/2 months later, assuming there's no lockout.

Fuck off to all the people doing the chop. Get that racist shit out of here.
Live report from Oriole Park at Camden Yards: the more I see of the beer-branded flag court, the less I like it. The white logos plastered all over the brick facade, the branding on the railing, and the TVs FACING THE FIELD OF PLAY are all downgrades.
My two-year-old son just walked up to me and asked, "Daddy, how can the Orioles ever maximize revenue for Mr. Rubenstein while competing against the much larger markets in their division if the players won't agree to a salary cap?" I didn't know how to answer. I just held him close as we both cried.
New MLB propaganda just dropped!
What the hell did Don Lee (bottom right) just see?

Fun fact: 1948 was a year after Jackie Robinson integrated the Dodgers...and 11 years before Pumpsie Green finally became the first Black player for the Red Sox.
RED SOX MOP THE RAYS W13 for Boston, its longest win streak since 1948 (!!!) -- Sox join Cubs as only teams with multiple mops this season L5 for Tampa Bay, its longest losing streak of the season
Damn, even when the Orioles claw their way back to fourth place, they're still in the basement. Fun fact: the New York Times is fascist, transphobic trash.
Dear @theathletic.com take a look at your AL East standings … see anything wrong, math wise?
Take the series please and dammit. Let's go O's and let's go mustard!
I've been in the park for a ton of disappointing and frustrating losses this year, but Samuel Basallo said NOT TONIGHT.
HUGE homer HUUUUGE bat toss Samuel Basallo puts the @Orioles ahead with one big swing 😤
BRB, calling my lawyer and making Basallo my primary beneficiary. Sorry, kids!
Distinguished Orioles alumni in attendance for tonight's dramatic 5-3 win: LHP Rick Krivda (1995-97, not pictured), RHP Tom Niedenfuer (1987-88), and RHP Don Stanhouse (1978-79, 1982). Yes, Adrienne Roberson acknowledged the "Fullpack" nickname over the PA.
Do we think Drew French gets a bonus for unused mound visits? #orioles
Keegan Akin's warmup music is a Nickelback song about getting blowies in a car. #keeganakinfacts #thisoneistrue
My sister doesn't do well with oppressive heat, so it's a date night with the person who's chosen to live with me for 13 years and counting! I'm glad the Orioles brought their bats tonight.
I groused my way through last night's insanely frustrating Orioles game, so I'll share good vibes from tonight's contest. Simon the usher has been exchanging mild smack talk with a guy who's rooting for Seattle. He finally convinced the guy to come hold his "Let's Go O's" sign and lead the cheer.
