The long wait until more baseball in Baltimore continues, as we’ve finally made it to Wednesday. With still two days to go until ALCS Game 1 at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, here is some more great O’s reading/listening to hold you over.
Playoff Win Streaks and Perspective
Who better to take a look back at how the O’s current postseason win streak compares to some of their best than the best O’s historian on the interwebs, Matt Taylor of Roar from 34? Matt also talks about how unlikely this ALCS seemed at the trade deadline, and even at the start of the postseason. LINK
Kevin Gausman was an integral part of the O’s Game 2 win over Detroit. With a couple longer series looming though, should Buck keep him in the pen? Baltimore Sports and Life’s Jeff Long dissect’s Buck’s decision. LINK
Jerry Crasnick of ESPN with a wonderful piece on the story of Steve Pearce’s perseverance. LINK
Jake and Scott are in a good mood as they break down the ALDS and preview the ALCS in this week’s episode. LINK
Josh Hamilton Couldn’t Play for Buck
At least that’s what I’d assume after reading the LA slugger’s thoughts on his hometown fans. He doesn’t “get it,” as Buck would say. LINK
