Aubrey Huff hits his 32nd and the O's lead 6-0 in game 2 but fall one run short. The O's lose game 3 by 1 run as well. Both teams scored the same amount of runs in the seres but the Blue Jays won 2 games. Olson pitched well in game 3 and Brian Bass pitched great until the 5th. He was shutting out the Jays until they put up 5 in the 5th. Really dissapointing. Then the BIrds come out and take an early two run lead. Luke Scott gets robbed of 2 home runs one stolen by the center fielder and one just wide of the foul pole and that was crucial. Just one would have made this an extra inning affair. Liz pitched great but a wild pitch did him in. There were many complaints that Hernandez does not block balls very well and I agree. Maybe he should practice keeping balls in front of him. Nick Markakis was thrown out trying to score an extra run on an Aubrey Huff single but was gunned down. That hurt. Adam Jones stole a base and is 9/12 in steals and Castro hit a leadoff double but was starnded as Brian Roberts bunted him over. The infield came in with Castro at 3rd but Markakis hit a ball at 2nd and Castro did not score.
