Morning Buzz – Reimold's Walk-Off

I know I wrote about my beloved Baltimore Orioles yesterday, but I am definitely still buzzing about rookie outfielder Nolan Reimold’s game-winning walk-off 3-run homer in the 11th inning.

Check it out:

Read more about the improbable comeback capped by the young outfielder from the two most entertaining baseball writers I know, Peter Schmuck and Roch Kubatko.

Take a look at Melvin Mora’s reaction from third base.  Make sure you see the veterans jumping up and down surrounding homeplate.  Ever heard of backup infielder Robert Andino?  He went 4-5 with a key RBI.  Outfielder Luke Scott took Roy Halladay deep in his first at-bat off the DL.  Nick Markakis announced his new charitable foundation (in addition to his $75,000 annual donation to the team charity).  Oh yeah, and some rookie is set to catch on Friday.

You know what’s starting to happen?

Yes…Orioles Magic!!!
