#194---BAL @ KC, 5/14/2009




Following the games for which I’ve shown scoresheets on this blog, you can probably pinpoint the moment when MLB Network came into existence: this season, 2009, when suddenly there are scoresheets for random Orioles/Royals games. There’s not much of note in this scoresheet, as you might expect from a game between teams that would go 64-98 and 65-97 respectively. It could have had its biggest impact on draft position, except Baltimore won so it didn’t flip either team’s position in retrospect. It would have been a big deal if it had – Baltimore drafted third and nabbed Manny Machado, Kansas City was fourth and drafted Christian Colon.
