Texas Chainsaw Masscare

The Orioles have been brutalized by the Rangers in the first two games of the series by a combined score of 24-6.

The Rangers may be the best team in baseball. The Yankees are good, maybe even great. The Rays are also very talented, but the Rangers have it all.

They came within a fly ball out of winning the World Series last year and they are making teams pay for not sealing the deal.  They play with the intensity of their principal owner, Nolan Ryan who has tossed out pitch counts and other things in favor of hard-nosed smash-mouth baseball.

Josh Hamilton hit four runs last night. The last person to do that against the Orioles was Rocky Colavito in 1959. Their pitcher, Neftali Feliz hurled 98 mile-an-hour heat at the Birds hitters.
 
The Orioles have returned to earth.
