That inning was brought to you by Ryan Zimmerman.... great at-bat by him earlier taking all of 12 pitches from Gagne and kept the inning going. Those additional pitches most likely weakened Gagne for Kearns and Milledge.

Nah. TJ surgery and a back injury.

Gagne was definitely a juicer.

The Rangers put up 20 hits and 15 runs in Baltimore today.

Kinsler had 5 hits and 3 RBIs. Marlon Byrd had 4 hits and 4 RBIs.

Why is Sutton complaining about a balk when there was no one on base?

I think because Gagne had been doing it all inning, even while Zimmerman was on base, and he was just pointing it out.

kearns is hitting .290 this month (not counting today) and hit .256 last month, so his average since coming back is around .265. Not too shabby, just about his career average. he actually only had 4 Ks in 31 ABs coming into today this month

How much do you think Zimm's patient, 12 pitch double did to Gagne's head?

he's somewhere between .260 and .270 I imagine

Batting Avgs are of little use for evaluating a player, first off. If you want to look at a batting average that matters, than look no further than one of the lowest avg with RISP on the team, .195, held by AK.

Also: SEE OPS. .624 for an outfielder is busch league.

Wouldn't it have counted as a ball and Flores would have walked?

That would be news to me.

The Orioles don't fare well against the Rangers, do they. It could have been worse. It has been worse. It's been *twice* as bad.

9 hits and 15 runs less than last year. The O's are improving.

I'm pretty sure he admitted it but like Pettitte he only did it a couple of times.

Well that makes more sense but he probably should've clarified his statement.
