Orioles ain't looking to string hits together. They are looking for one swing and Britton.

I'm not sure either team would beat Texas, or Boston in a series, but Baltimore and that bullpen scare me alot more than Toronto

That's what I don't get. Why was it okay to warm your closer up to pitch the 8th, not a save situation, but not to bring him in in the 9th when it's not a save situation.
I'm guessing that the reasoning is that he'd use Britton if the heart of the order were coming up with men on.

Do you have to pay for the second lane there? Do you get a free shot on your lane?

I know Osuna being hurt is a major story, but I can't focus on it until I have this bowling commerce and rules question locked down.
While playing mini-golf I once had a ball bounce over the back edge of the green, roll onto the next green, and go in the hole. I awarded myself a 0 on the first hole and a 1 on the second hole, but that scoring proved to be...controversial at best. I say, go for the X and damn the naysayers.

Has a player named Melvin ever had a playoff walk off hit? I got a feeling he might win this.

Tulo had lost a little something in his last partial year with the Rockies before they traded him. Someone said that before that Tulo had either been great or hurt. Then, that year he was just . . . good. The Rockies knew just when to trade him.

I might have gone .5 and .5. Totally legit.
