O's 12, Yankees 5: Phil Me Up, Buttercup
Full Boxscore The O's put THE HURT down on Phil Hughes last night, drilling him for eight earned runs in 1.2 innings and the offense rolled for 12 runs on 16 hits in total, beating the Yankees 12-5 on the strength of an eight-run second inning. Adam Eaton (2-3) got the win, not that he really...
O's 5, Twins 4: Lucky Louie
Lou Montanez singled home what turned out to be the game-winning run in the eighth inning, Melvin Mora hopefully got off the schneid, and George Sherrill sealed the deal in the ninth to give the O's a 5-4 win and a somewhat lucky, two-game sweep of the Minnesota Twins. From the AP...
Harden, Johnson Stimulate Cubs To Win Over Astros, 6-3
The Cubs have now won five of their last six games, after a 6-3 win over Houston last night at the Juice Box, and they are doing it the same way they did it last year -- with long-sequence offenses (one homer last night, by Aramis Ramirez, and the rest of the runs scoring using a bases-loaded...
Orioles 8, Rangers 5: Adam Jones won't let you down
I didn't watch most of the game, but I *did* read the box score, and I don't know if you knew this, but pretty much everything you need to know is in the box score. I don't even know why they show the games on TV. Box scores in the newspaper are baseball, not human beings with feelings and...
Orioles 10, White Sox 3: Off the schneid!
I didn't actually get to watch tonight's game, but just following Brad Bergesen's MLB debut on Yahoo! GameChannel was kind of inspiring. That probably says more about the state of Orioles' starting rotation than anything, because Bergesen was solid but not, like, phenomenal or anything. He went 5...
Orioles 7, Rangers 5: "Mr. Excitement" becoming way too much to deal with
Gary Thorne and Jim Palmer have this habit that's getting increasingly annoying: They try to sell we, the fans, on George Sherrill being "exciting." This is a nice way of saying he stinks. Sherrill hasn't been pitching well since the All-Star break last season, and he wasn't that good prior to it,...
Orioles 10, Rangers 9: Messing with Texas not as bad as reported
George Sherrill almost never makes it easy, but after a tightrope act in the ninth inning, Sherrill and the O's held on to their 10-9 lead in Arlington to improve to 5-2 on the season. The Good Aubrey Huff was 4-for-5 with three steaks. Nick Markakis went 2-for-5 with a walk, two RBIs, three runs...
Orioles 5, Rays 4: Skin o' my teeth
Mark Hendrickson was solid, Danys Baez was buck wild nasty in relief, Melvin Mora had three runs batted in, and the Orioles improved to 3-1 with a nail-biting, 5-4 hold-off win over the defending AL champion Rays. Hendrickson (1-0) went five and a third, allowing just one run on six hits. He...
Orioles 7, Yankees 5: We've only just begun
Though Dennis Sarfate decided to make it interesting in the ninth by allowing three earned runs, George Sherrill came in to get the final out (after allowing an RBI double to Mark Teixeira, charged to Sarfate) and the Orioles secured their second straight win over the Yankees. Nick Markakis was...
Opening Day: O's 10, Yankees 5
CC Sabathia was terrible in his Yankees debut and Mark Teixeira didn't fare much better under intense boos all game long from the Baltimore faithful, and the Orioles banged out a 10-5 win on Opening Day. New shortstop Cesar Izturis went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in the eighth inning (and yes,...
