Aaron Crow is my new favorite non-O's pitcher of the day!

O's lead 5-3 now in the 7th!

JJ Hardy is on fire.

David Wright 2-2 w/3 BB's...now hitting .411...RBI doulbe in the Bottom of the 8th gives the Mets the lead...until the bullpen blows it...again

Adam Jones 3rd Straight Game with a HR.
13th on the year.

Why won't JJ's stuff see a bump? I LOVE me some JJ Hardy and I miss him more and more each day.

No clue!
He's great on D, and has been red hot with the bat the last 2 weeks.

Tip to all pitchers: Don't throw Cody Ross a fastball.


3-0 Sawx.

Carlos Ruiz is on fire for the phillies this year.
He may very well be the starting catcher in the all star game.

Another HR for Pujols. I'm so happy about that I've become indifferent to the halos losing to the sox.

Moore with 8K's thru 5IP.
Has given up 3 runs though.

Blast from the past Rich Thompson (from 2002 Bowman Chrome/Bowman's Best) got his first MLB hit and RBI at age 33.
