Box Scores


I know it's only two weeks into the season, but when I look at a box score and see a pitching line like this, I gotta wonder:

0.1IP 3H 6R 6ER 1BB 0K 0HR 67.50ERA

Lookit that ERA! Holy moly!

So this atrocity put up today by the Orioles' Radhames Liz (that's him on the left) against Boston in the Patriots' Day game earned El SeƱor Liz the following reward, courtesy The Baltimore Sun:

Radhames Liz optioned to Norfolk

And thanks for playing . . . enjoy the International League, which, by the way, is really a misnomer, since none of its 14 teams reside outside of the U.S. The last non-American team to play in the IL was the Ottawa Lynx, who moved to Allentown, PA after the 2007 season to become the Lehigh Valley IronPigs.

Just thought you'd like to know.

  1. Speaking of box scores, I dug the one from the 14 run 2nd inning the Indians had vs. the Yankees the other day. That was stellar. Not to mention Jason Kubel's cycle/slam on Friday - that one blew my little mind.
