O's drop 1 vs Mets

With a team needing a vitory bad the O's struggled badly defesnvley and made 3 errors allowin 3 uneraned runs and lost 6-4. Markakis blasted a 2 run ding dong over the right field big wall and a late 9th innings flurry gave them 2 more but with the tying runs on 2nd and third K Rod struck out Adam Jones and the game was final. Roberts struck out with the bases loaded earlier on a ball out of the zone and committed an erorr on A DP ball where he could not glove the rock as it took a skip hop off his wrist. Huff dropped a pop fly in the Vermuda trrinagle area that he or ORberts could have snabbed as the booth thought Roberts should have called off Huff but he didn't. The error Reimold commited was a bad throw to home that the catcher could not control and the Birds lose one needing a win bad. They can still win the series and that's what they want to do.
