Baltimore Orioles (26-16, 1st +1.0) vs. Houston Astros (17-28, 5th -10.0)

Streak / L10

BAL: -1, 3-4 over last 7 / L10: 6-4

HOU: -4, Lost 4 of 6 / L10: 3-7

NEW: Quality Start minimum requirements

- 6 IP, 2ER

- 7 IP, 3ER

- Game ERA must be under four

Game 1 (8:10)

(QS=5)Chris Tillman (6-1) 2.61 (1.16/.213), 53/21 (2HR)

vs.

(QS=3)Doug Fister (4-3) 4.22 (1.29/.258), 27/15 (6HR)

Chris Tillman: Five of Tillman's last six starts have been NEW quality with Tillman having won five consecutive starts and the Orioles having won all but one game he has started this season. He has a 2.03 (1.24) this month with a concerning 13 walks in 26.2 innings. Tillman has not done that well in two road starts this season where he took his only loss of the season in Texas. His last four starts have been at home, but he has done awfully well in the little he has seen Houston and even more so at Beverage Maker Park.

Doug Fister: Though Fister technically has thrown six quality starts in a row, only three quality under this new definition. Still, Fister has pitched well lately overall and has won three straight decisions and Houston has won the last four games he started. Fister has a 3.08 ERA in four May starts and a 1.10 WHIP to go with it. He has thrown no less than 6.1 innings in any of those starts and has allowed only one home run so far this month. However, he has not fared all that well in Beverage Maker Park nor has he done well against the Orioles. Not terrible, but not well either.

The Orioles barely got out of Anaheim with a series win since they really did not play well enough to win game two, but was fortunate to get the ninth inning homer from Weiters. They were then blown out in game three as the Orioles offense has gone cold lately scoring three or fewer runs in four of the last six games. Houston has lost four straight and are generally not good this season so far, so it will be interesting to see what happens.

Tillman and Fister could go either way as both guys have been pitching well and their teams have been winning most of the games they start, so we shall see how this goes offensively for both teams. Both these guys have been very good lately.

In the division, the Orioles are once again tied with Boston for the lead with the Yankees now in third place 5.5 back having won five in a row and seven of 10. Toronto and TB are tied for last six games back with the Rays having lost three in a row. In the central, the Indians are up on the White Sox 4-1 in the eighth as Chicago will likely be losing more ground. In the West, the M's have won four in a row in first, but the Angels are shutting out Texas up 2-0 heading into the top of the ninth as the Rangers loaded the bases in the eighth and could not score.

I noticed the sentence" Orioles are once again tied with Boston". Though we're only at the quarter point of the season, I tend to look at the win percentages rather than "games behind" to determine who's in first when there are GB "ties". The O's are going to be out of sync with Boston and others in the AL East in games played due to several rainouts for a while to come. Maybe others considered them tied, but I go with the win percentage to the ranking. MLB has them ranked the way I see it, the O's up due to their .619 to Boston's .614 win percentage. Your mileage may vary, but I was looking up some opinions on this and found some interesting reading here:

5th paragraph:

"Usually, in tables of standings in newspapers and magazines kept during the season, teams are ordered by the teams' winning percentages, with the number of games they are behind the division leader supplementing the table."

Seventy-six trombones led the big parade. With a hundred and ten cornets close at hand.

I found another Pixies show where the set list is in alphabetical order.

Here you go, from Bone Machine to Where is my mind?

Who else does that?

The person who posted the clip didn't mention it, I noticed four songs in.

I didn't post since if I over post any three acts than the Pixies are one of them.

Yeah, I know some prefer to do it that way. I've always just gone by the "games back" number since at season's end, it will all balance out once the rainouts are made up and everything.
