Hey RAZR,why don't you have a baseball page going,I think you'd be good at it.

Well I guess I could. I don't have the time for box scores and stuff but I could do write-ups if you guys don't mind it starting in may because finished april.

And I also might get at most 10 teams going at a time so it might be all over the place but if all of that is cool with you guys then I'll get a page started.

I actually like the idea of moving from team to team(if thats what you mean) it gives it more of a league flavor rather than just one team.Ok,this thread hijack is complete:wink:

PITCHING MATCH-UP

Garrett Olson Charlie Haeger 0-4 W-L 2-1 5.90 ERA 4.26

Rookie Olson deliveres masterpiece to earn first victory of season!!!!!

Chicago, IL - A day after the Orioles and White Sox hitters put on an offensive display that will be talked about for some time to come, the pitchers in tonight's affair made some noise of their own. Charlie Haeger was tough allowing only 2 runs on 6 hits, but it was not enough to contend with what the O's starter Garrett Olson had up his sleeve tonight. The O's number five starter went 7.2 IP without surrendering a run and recorded three strikeouts to pick up his first career victory. The O's got an RBI double by team leader Luke Scott in the 4th inning and a clutch 2 out RBI single by Alex Cintron in the 5th. That would be enough as the O's pen would seal it in the late innings and closer George Sherrill earned his 7th save of the season to give the O's the first two games of the four game series.

Hope so man, maybe it's because the wind is so strong it's forcing my guys to keep moving and such.

Indians Bullpen Struggles



No relief for Indians as Yankees score late to win.

The visiting Yankees took care of the Indians 10-7 yesterday afternoon, playing in front of 37,384 fans at Jacobs Field. Bobby Abreu drove in 2 runs on 3 hits, helping the club pick up the win. In relief of starter Darrell Rasner, Kyle Farnsworth, coming into a tie game, worked 2 innings, allowing 1 run and 3 hits to notch his 1st win of the season.

The Yankees play in Cleveland again this afternoon, with ace Chien-Ming Wang slated to oppose the Indians' Scott Elarton.

Orioles offense stagnant as Sox claim first victory of series!!!!!

Chicago, IL - Despite gaining 6 walks against Chicago starter Nick Masset, the "Birds" were unable to get the key hit when needed tonight and fell to the White Sox 7-1. Nick went a strong 7.0 IP, allowing only 1 run on 5 hits and striking out 6 Oriole batters. The O's broke the scoreboard in the top of the 3rd when Luis Hernandez scored on a wild pitch and that was the only run the O's could muster up tonight. The Sox got 2 out, 2-RBI double to right center by Jim Thome in the 3rd to put them ahead and then broke it open in the 6th by plating 4 runs in the inning, the key hit being a 2-RBI single by Joe Crede to score Jim Thome and Carlos Quentin. The O's got runners to 1st and 2nd in the 8th with nobody out, but Scott Linebrink came in and shut the door on any O's comeback attempt. On a side note, Melvin Mora and Kevin Millar both extended their hitting streaks to 10 games. The series finale will be tomorrow as the Orioles will try once again to win their 10th game of the month and get back into the race.

This is amusing: You're doing an Orioles dynasty and Toronto is in first place. I am doing a Blue Jays dynasty and the Orioles are in first place. Do you wanna switch? LOL
