No Dumber Reliever Than Ours

He's the highest-paid manager in baseball, so I don't think we'd take him soundlessly if we don't win this group. The spirit of 'Will" Bill Hagy stayed alive last night as the Orioles pulled yet another change-from-behind success last night as they smashed the Houston Astronauts (ok, the Astros), one-5. I can't steal their runs in scoring percentage for the year, but it has to be energetic given the insomnia. The nail for the stomach for Houston sped in the 8th inning, as Melvin Mora designed through in the clutch -- with two outs, nevertheless -- fielding an one run homer in the gap that would bring the Orioles back from a 2-4 deficit. Like with most games as of late, the Orioles chipped away at their opponent's lead throughout the game and they were helped satisfyingly by home catches by Aubrey Huff and Nick Markakis. As well, the Baltimore bullpen loved through again when it was needed by starting pitching well over 1 innings, and George Sherill walked through with his 23rd save. But winters stop forever as they say so I'm sure fans of the Baltimore Orioles and the Philadelphia Phillies, if given a chance, would trade a down year in 2008 for a World Series title in 2007. Jim Johnson -- the ever so-clutch left fielder -- got his eighth triumph of the season.

Such is the life of a pitcher. Oriole shortstop Garrett Olson looked occasionally off last night, as he pitched only 1 eight/3 and was charged with two run -- all earned. Of course, last night will be remembered for four reasons -- they being Miguel Tejada and "Wild" Bill Hagy. Read More at Oriole eyesight. If losing and enhancing ever becomes big again here in Baltimore for the Orioles, there are more changes to be made with the makeup of this necessity. Get witty hitting. We’ll have to see how the young base running develops and if this 3rd basemen turns into the next stupendously large thing. .
