Ty Wigginton's sacrifice fly with two outs in the top of the ninth inning scored Jason White to give the Orioles a 4-3 lead.
Who's Jason White? He played shortstop at Single-A Frederick and Double-A Bowie last year. Shame on you for not knowing.
OK, I looked it up.
Eddie Gamboa will try to collect the save.
Who's Eddie Gamboa?
Forget it.
Two more weeks! Can you believe how fast it went? We are just fourteen days away from peanuts, cracker jack, Teddy, Bang! Zoom! and Half Smokes. Who's ready?
This week's challenge:
Good luck! I'll post the answer on Wednesday!
Update:
Many correct answers this week. It is indeed a shot of the bike racks outside of the ballpark. Did you know that in addition to these bike racks (which hold 250 bikes), the Nationals have a free bike valet? Stop by Garage C beginning 2 1/2 hours before...
The Orioles 2010 Promotions Schedule lists four different bobblehead nights during the upcoming season: Nolan Reimold, Adam Jones, and Nick Markakis mini bobbleheads, with a Matt Wieters standard bobblehead thrown in the mix mid-season.
Unlike the wide open debate for five of the six T-Shirt Tuesdays on the promotions schedule (a Matt Wieters T-shirt will kick things off, but we'll get to the remaining five at a later date here in the Orioles Buzz), these four bobblehead nights have...
The Rays loaded the bases against Steve Johnson with no outs in the fifth inning, and the right-hander fell behind, 2-0, to the next batter.
Recipe for disaster?
Make it damage control.
Johnson retired Ben Zobrist on a fly ball to left-center field, witih Kelly Shoppach scoring to tie the game, and Evan Longoria grounded into a 6-4-3 double play.
The breeze you just felt was Dave Johnson exhaling from the front row of the press box.
Steve Johnson threw 24 pitches, 12 for strikes.

Today is one of those beautiful winter days at Camden Yards. The sun is shining; the snow has melted; the grass on the field has been mowed; and the sprinklers are doing the early work of bringing the Yard back to life.
There were even a few people milling around Eutaw Street today on my way in, and Opening Day finally feels as near as it looks on the calendar.
So with your best memory of Camden Yards in the back of your mind, check out this week's 'Where in the Yard?' and tell us what's...

Robert Andino has tied the game in the fifth inning with a two-run homer off left-hander Carlos Hernandez.
The ball cleared the fence in left field. Somebody retrieve it for him.
Andino, expected to step aside for newest acquisition Julio Lugo, has three homers this spring. He didn't hurt his trade value today.
Update: Felix Pie followed with a double to left, and he scored on Ty Wigginton's single.
Orioles 3, Tampa Bay 2.
The Rays have two stolen bases today, but Jake Arrieta has been...

Nationals fans living in these areas will finally get to watch Nats games on television, as well as Nats Xtra before and after games, and all of MASN's other programming.
MASN will launch on those Comcast systems on March 31st, and the first...
If you haven't seen Matt Wieters on the cover of the most recent issue of Sports Illustrated, make sure you don't miss it.
Tom Verducci's feature makes Wieters the first Oriole to grace an SI cover since the IronMan himself, Cal Ripken Jr., who was certainly no stranger to the pages of Sports Illustrated.
Cal's image made the cover nine times over the years, including four times in 1995 alone! (May, August, September and December)
Billy Ripken and Cal Ripken Sr. also had covers all to...
