As the announcers were saying shit like "it's hard to offer honest analysis" when Mariano Rivera throws a bad pitch, the Orioles' Adam "Not the Guitar Player from Tool, a Different Adam Jones" Jones rocketed a two-run dong, shoving it right in their goddamn faces. A 1-0 Yankee lead became a 2-1 Yankee loss. Nick Markakis, the most feared hitter in the game,* started the rally with a solid single after missing a dong of his own by a few feet.

It was a supposed to be a series where the O's taught the Yanks that "you can't play the Twins every day." Instead, they blew game one in the ninth and lost another close one in game two. Then today they looked asleep, but thankfully the Yanks brought in the man known for some of the Greatest chokes in MLB history, and the O's salvage game 3 and jump back over NY in the standings. The Yanks would have gone into tonight knowing they could cut our lead to 4. Instead, they're in 4th place again, as the Rays also jumped over them today. Huge win for Baltimore.

Of course I'm still pissed about us giving away a game last night.

Lackey against Weaver tonight at 8:05. Lack's got him by a full run, ERA-wise....
