Oriole MagicMVN - a Baltimore Orioles blog | The Voice of Oriole Fans since 2005!Reeling Orioles hit the road, looking to the future- July 7, 2008 The Orioles have one more six game roadtrip before the official halfway point of the season that is the All-Star break. This final roadtrip will take the Birds through Toronto and Boston before a well-deserved break for everyone not named Geroge Sherrill. The last homestand before the break was the worst of the season. The Orioles went ...http://mvn.com/mlb-orioles/2008/07/07/reeling-orioles-hit-the-road-looking-to-the-future/ Rangers Take 2 Out of 3; Loewen On the Shelf- July 7, 2008 It was an ugly day at the Yard on Sunday. Well, in perhaps one of the longest, frustrating, exciting, and heart-breaking nine-inning game that I have ever had to sit through, the Orioles valiantly came back from a four run deficit late; however, they narrowly missed defeating the Rangers, 11-10. The game started off ugly, and ...http://mvn.com/mlb-orioles/2008/07/07/rangers-take-2-out-of-3-loewen-on-the-shelf/ Orioles Pound Rangers; The Deadline- July 5, 2008 The Orioles started the fireworks early as they downed the Rangers in a laugher, 10-4. Both Freddie Bynum, who played due to illness (Roberts battling the flu), and Brandon Fahey supplied much of offense on the 4th of July. Fahey had two doubles, and Bynum has three RBI&8217;s for the easy win. The offense jumped ...http://mvn.com/mlb-orioles/2008/07/05/orioles-pound-rangers-the-deadline/ The Good, The Bad & The Ugly- July 4, 2008 Last night was painful to watch, real painful as the Orioles blew a game that they should not have, 10-7. We have the free-swinging Rangers on the docket this 4th of July weekend, but first, last night started off so well and then became an unadulterated train wreck. Garrett Olson started off well, and the Orioles ...http://mvn.com/mlb-orioles/2008/07/04/the-good-the-bad-the-ugly/ The Good Daniel Shows Up Last Night- July 3, 2008 We can officially say that Daniel Cabrera is an engima. He had a great April-May; however, the tall righty went winless in June, but last night &8212; he was masterful. Who knows if he will ever be consistent, but when he&8217;s good &8212; he&8217;s real good and has the goods to be a top flight ...http://mvn.com/mlb-orioles/2008/07/03/the-good-daniel-shows-up-last-night/ Preseason Predictions, Revisited- July 2, 2008 The Orioles have just passed the midway point of their season and they sit at a surprising 42-40. That by itself is a bit of an accomplishment. If it were not for the phenomenal rise of the Tampa Bay Rays the Orioles would be the story of the AL East and Dave Trembley would be ...http://mvn.com/mlb-orioles/2008/07/02/preseason-predictions-revisited/ Flat and breezy is back! Os win.- July 2, 2008 George Sherrill probably did not expect to be used last night. Coming into the ninth, nursing a four run lead, the Orioles went to Dennis Safarte to close out an effective start for Radhames Liz and relief performance from Adam Loewen. Safarte ended up getting only one out and walking two batters - Trembley went to ...http://mvn.com/mlb-orioles/2008/07/02/flat-and-breezy-is-back-os-win/ Stunned Part II: The Royals Steal One & Sherrill Serves It Up- July 1, 2008 After serving up a two-run walk off homer to Washington&8217;s Ronnie Belliard in a 3-2 loss on Sunday, George Sherrill was on the mound last night against the lowly Kansas City Royals and it looked like Baltimore was on it&8217;s way to a 5-4 win.
