HOW BOUT DEM O's

[bigred1]

As an O's fan this is hard to fathom. What an amazing run, credit to manager, decent talent but playing way over there head.

The Pirates have folded but still cheering on the Orioles and A's. Nice to see a different cast of characters in the playoffs :-)
BTW, I have heard that the movie producers are slavering to make Moneyball II after the success of the first one. This is actually Billy Beane's finest hour, the first team had Hudson, Zito, Mulder, etc., although they were conveniently left out of the movie. This squad is the real lunch pail moneyball kids.

The O's have allowed 20 more runs then they have scored, the Yanks have scored 93 more then they have allowed.

The Luck must run out sooner or later.

The Yankees kept saying that in the 1960 World Series, when they were outscoring the Pirates something like 39-15, but lost the series. Luck doesn't have to last forever, just a little bit longer for Baltimore!

They have won 13 straight extra inning games, that's REALLY lucky.

It's not luck, it's Buck

Sure they have gotten some breaks to go their way to win that many extra inning games, but you are forgetting that a big reason they have done that, is they probably have one of the best bullpens in baseball. Their pen is really really strong and that is going to win you a lot of extra inning and one run games.

I think I am going to start this thread every April if the Orioles will achieve their current results!!

WOW!
