Robert Andino Happy to Send Red Sox Home 'Sad, Crying'

The Red Sox needed a sweep in Baltimore to get September's monkey off their backs. Instead, they were handed two losses, including Wednesday's 4-3 decision in the final game of the season, denying them a trip to the postseason for the second consecutive season. It was enough to make Robert Andino -- a Red Sox killer of late -- very happy. "End of season like this, to make Boston...

Robert Andino: Sending Boston Home Crying on Walk off is Priceless

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Robert Andino delivered the final blow to the Red Sox, closing a miserable September, and perhaps the most disappointing season in Boston Red Sox franchise history. Though the Orioles would finish the season last in the AL East by a wide margin, and among the worst teams in baseball, they were [...]

'I Hate You, Robert Andino' Will Be Popular Refrain As Orioles Steal Late Win From Red Sox

Who is Robert Andino? Red Sox fans may be asking themselves that after the Orioles second baseman's three-run double won the game for the O's on Tuesday night. It's the latest in a series of crushing defeats for the Red Sox and an especially tough one considering the Rays had lost to the Yankees and the Sox miss a chance to gain some breathing room in the wild card race. Daniel Bard...

Baltimore Orioles: The week that was in Birdland (Sept. 11th)

In terms of playing and winning games, you might not consider this such a bad week for the Baltimore Orioles, all things considering. The O’s had a very interesting series in NY against the Yankees before heading home for a “one-game series” against those same Yankees, and then onto Toronto this weekend. Tuesday night’s game was played in a torrential rain, and it didn’t...

WHERE'S THE GLOVE?

Orioles' Andino makes barehanded catch

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times: gloves are overrated. Granted, when I say that I am usually referring to washing dishes in the kitchen sink (we use Palmolive in our household: “You’re soaking in it”), not when chasing down popups in foul territory and opting to go barehanded to make [...]

The New and Improved Robert Andino

I have not been a big fan of Robert Andino. And that would be an understatement.When he arrived to the Orioles in 2009, I thought he was fine. Not a good player but just fine. I even advocated for the release of Cesar Izturis since I saw Andino as a younger, cheaper version of Izzy who might just develop a slightly better bat.But after watching defensive lapses, baserunning errors...

Orioles Finish Off Month of April With Win; Impact of Andino and Gonzo

The Baltimore Orioles finished the month of April on a high note as they beat up on the sinking Chicago White Sox, 6-2, on Saturday night. It’s amazing what opportunities can come when you least expect it. Robert Andino – who was supposed to be a third-string backup in the infield to start the season – has made the most of the playing time he’s gotten due to J.J. Hardy’s...
