They Couldn't Have Called It In The 6th?

The A's scored 11 runs on 7 hits. That should not happen in the major leagues - even if the O's used a bunch of minor league pitchers and there was a bunch of rain. The Orioles lose again, 11-2, and drop to 14 games under .500 at 63-77. I do have to say that I appreciate seeing Nick Markakis draw a walk to lead-off the ninth though the team was down nine runs - can we give him the "Professional Hitter" label yet? I don't think it's likely that they'll get to the 72 I predicted. Maybe not even the 69 from last year. Just another September in Baltimore. At least the Ravens are back this Sunday.


That's a pretty good representation of my feelings about this baseball season.
