werth's is one of my favorites. i love the song, and it totally fits his slow walk to the plate.

i really like that 80s synth-y one morse uses. the part where the stadium cuts it off and the crowd continues to the really high note is awesome.

seems like every team has 1 or 2 great walk-up songs, the rest are awful.

Most of the guys have terrible taste in music.  Adam Jones has a good song.

The PA music guy at the Yard is great though.  A big Smiths fan for sure.

AS you probably know, Morse didn't play yesterday, so missed his.

It's hilarious, everyone the stadium sings along with "Take On Me", I like how it's a thing now. ITS SO A THING!

Apparently my sign made it on MASN last night.  I didn't tape the game.  Did anyone see it?

I did not see it but I was seated clear across the stadium.

Headed back to the Yard tonight.  We better take the next two.

Will be there Saturday and Sunday.  Wish I was going again tonight, but I need to stay home and get some rest!  (after watching the game of course)

Yes, the Orioles did get rid of John Miller.  So did ESPN.  No idea why either of them would as he rules.

Angelos fired Jon Miller in 1996 because he was often too candid for him, citing a desire for a broadcaster who would "bleed more orange and black."

Miller now does SF Giants games.  I won't tell you what color they are.

As for ESPN, I think they really wanted Joe Morgan gone, but axed the team.  They offered Miller the radio gig, but he said no thank you and now just works the Giants games.

He really is a pleasure to listen to.

I think Pete didn't like the fact that Miller did so much outside of O's games - espn for instance.  Ironically Gary Thorne now seems to do the same thing.

Will do whatever it takes.

I'll be at the game tomorrow night, too.  I plan to catch up on sleep on our off day.

Got 2 from the Pixies tonight - 'Monkey' for McLouth and 'Here Comes Your Man' for Ayala in relief. 

Would rather have had a win though.
