Orioles win; Yankees lose

[weams]

Jacoby Ellsbury left the game in the fourth inning with a right knee injury.

Ellsbury scored the Yankees’ first run in the fourth but left the game at the start of the home half of the inning with the knee injury believed to have happened while he was swinging the bat.

O's are now just one back in the loss column!

Yanks and Rays lead the division at 22-18 each, then Sox at 19-20, then O's at 17-19, then the Citos at 18-23.

I could get used to this.

Man, those Nats look good don't they:)? Sorry, couldn't resist. I think we can agree on one point-it is always fun to watch the Yankees lose:)

Absolutely fun! And it was certainly nice seeing that Andrew Miller is, indeed, human after all.

Glad to see the Nats win, which pains me to admit.

And glad that someone finally got to Miller.

And yes, the Orioles won again last night.

The Yankees are sinking to their level now. They're not very good.

The beauty of a baseball season. As our fearless leader so eloquently states in the MLB commercial, "Who you are, and what you are will show itself sooner or later."

Texas put up TEN runs in one inning vs. our beloved Yankees in the 3rd inning today. Most runs given up in an inning by the pinstripes since 2009. CC started the inning and there were at least two defensive miscues.

I remember that game, too. The final score was 22-4:

Earlier that week, Nick Swisher (Yankee outfielder) pitched one shutout inning in a blowout loss to the Rays:

Chien-Ming Wang started both of those games for the Yankees.

Rangers have loaded the bases with none out. 11-0 in the sixth.

13-0 Wow. "Oh mighty Caesar doth thou lie so low?"

Another Fielder homer. 15-1.

So, I guess that the Yankees losing this game makes tonight's contest against the Marlins a must-win, right? For purposes of this thread, and its title.
