Meanwhile, the Orioles win 12-0 and are in a dead heat with the Yankees. And definitely no luck involved in the 12-0 win. :-) -

- Still going with Tampa and that Pitching.
Any team but the Bankees is fine with me. Doubt the Orioles will win it because they are not a "good team", just a lucky team-that happens to be in first place.

1In response to notin's comment:6 of their next 9 are against the Yankees. A good stretch, and the AL East could have a new leader.
I wonder how many sportswriters predicted the Orioles to be in this position last March.
(OK, I know how many. 0)
Notin,
Your call is so on the mark. Kudos ....
Only says the panic level in Jangee Heaven is a 9 of 10 ....
Most of my NYY fan friends are already watching footnall ... -

Not everybody. But he's a tyrant (Obviously in a good way). This would never play in the current culture in Boston, and I'm sure other places. -
