Pedroia's catch

Dustin Pedroia just made a great leaping catch to rob Aubrey Huff of an RBI single, but the thing that made it even more important was that it kept Nolan Reimold from coming to the plate in the bottom of the seventh representing the tying run.

Who knows what would have happened, but if you had told me during the lengthy rain delay that the Orioles would make a game of this, I would have bet the farm against them even showing signs of life.

Of course, I don't own a farm. I don't even have a vegetable garden. It's a figure of speech.

Anyway, nice catch.

Agreed, who would of that. Good effort and it is not over yet! C'mon O's shock the Sox.

forgot thought, everyone got the point though.

Mad props to Palmer for calling out that bogus strike on Pie hahaha

forcing the sox to bring in jonny for a 5 out save in a 10-1 game is pretty incredible...credit where credit is due.

$#@% YEAH!!!!!

This is the kind of game to turn around a season!
Well at least get people excited again..

i rant on nick and he goes crazy...totally unrelated i am sure.
but that is a damn good at bat! and no reason we don't see more of that.

YEAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
As an O's fan in Boston and watching the game with the ultimate homer commentating (Eckersley), this was the best game all year. Unbelievable game!!! It was great to see those dejected fans and Sox players in the stadium. This is the type of game that will turn the season around.
GO O's!!!!!!!

About Peter Schmuck
Peter Schmuck wants you to know that, contrary to popular belief, he is more than just a bon vivant, raconteur and collector of blousy flowered shirts. He is a semi-respected journalist who has covered virtually every sport -- except luge, of course – and tackled issues that transcend the mere games people play. If that isn’t enough to qualify him to provide witty, wide-ranging commentary on the sports world ... and the rest of the world, for that matter ... he is an avid reader of history, biography and the classics, as well as a charming blowhard who pops off on both sports and politics on WBAL Radio. That means you can expect a little of everything in The Schmuck Stops Here, but the major focus will be keeping you up to the minute on Baltimore’s major sports teams and themes, whether it’s throwing up the Orioles lineup the minute it’s announced or updating you on the latest sprained ankle in Owings Mills. Oh, and by the way, that’s Mr. Schmuck to you.
