    Matusz isn't even winning the poll, but you'd have to give a lot of consideration to the tie-breaking HR.

    The official scorer has a modicum of sense!

    Error on Nick Johnson on that triple. PERFECT. Thank You Very Much Mr. Official Scorer.

    Matusz now 0 Earned Runs in 6 IP. That looks quite good.

    I'll go with option C and say neither.

    Still, our solid bullpen, along with the home-field advantage (last licks) still gives us the better chance (than the Blue Jays) to win this game.


    If they blow it now, they deserve it. They won't.

    6 IP 0 ER trumps the homerun in my book, especially after Jones' base-running earlier.

    Not watching MASN so no idea who is leading. To me Matusz should be run away choice.

    I'm betting that Kevin Gregg will throw a wild pickoff attempt to first base with Nick Johnson fielding, hit Nick Johnson in the head, Nick charges the mound and Gregg does his haymaker. Infighting!

    Hopefully they'll put each other on the DL (or RL).

    The scoring change helps Matusz out by reducing his ERA to 5.66.

    Okay, what the heck happened in the sixth? Gameday said a triple, then I checked the box and it was ruled an error on Johnson at first? That cost Matusz a win?

    They are still Orioles, let them go out with some dignity. They both are put on the DL with injuries sustained trying to stop Derek Jeter from killing a baby.

    Good times. One more out to go. Rain should now be a non-factor.
