(Protip: I'm not into sexuality, with anyone, of any sex/gender, ever, ever, so don't read into it that way. Instead, think about how it might apply to the Orioles!)

Thrilling time prediction:

Top of the 9th, 2 outs, score tied 3-3, KC's closer pitching, bases loaded, Nick Markakis hits a grand slam. Tommy Hunter retires the side on 8 pitches in the bottom of the 9th and the Orioles win 7-3. Hammel goes 7.1 IP, 3 ER.

Adam Jones says, "Ooh, can I have one of those???"

Yes. Yes he can. Let's see if he does anything to build up to earning one tonight.
