Apparently, the Orioles have taken exception to our continued mockery, but how long can this chip on the shoulder last when the team still isn't any good. I think even Baltimore fans can agree with me on this. Things have gotten so out of hand, Aubry Huff is now hitting clutch home runs.
At the very least, let's hope this streak keep up a little longer to convince ... say, a few more fans to the park other than this lonely guy. The smaller crowd in Camden Yards history saw the come-from-behind 5-4 win over Seattle on Monday afternoon.

Angels 6, Indians 4 When Joe Borowski was here in Chicago, we had a very simple nickname for him: Nervous. Not only did he look the part, each and every appearance on the mound creating only negative thoughts until the final out, if there ever was one. He's been OK in Cleveland thus far, but I suspect the Indians fans just got much more nervous. Joe walked Gary Mathews Jr., gave up a single to Vlad Guerrero, walked Garrett Anderson and then faced Torii Hunter. Walk it off Torii. All of this after the Indians had come from behind with a 3 spot in the top of the inning.

Cubs 10, Pirates 8 (12) Despite the score, this may very welll rank in the five worst games I've ever watched. Not kidding. 19 walks. Every Cubs infielder had an error except Derrek Lee. Cubs blew a 7-0 lead in the 4th inning. Pirates had a man on third, no outs, and failed get him in for win. Ugly. Thankfully, the schedule makers gave them an off day before the series continues Wednesday.
Meanwhile, Alfonso Soriano continues to tear the cover off the ball to the tune of .094.
White Sox 7, Twins 4 Joe Crede (4 RBI) appears to be just fine.
Astros 5, Cards 3 Miguel Tejada will now be officially welcomed into Houston. Walk-off HR > Mitchell Report. Wait, what Mitchell Report?
Yankees 6, Rays 1 6 strong innings from Mike Mussina is very good news for the Pinstripes.
