This is the same Texas Rangers team that was no-hit by Mark Buehrle earlier in the season. No, wait, that team had Mark Teixeria. No matter how many games MLB ends up playing, you will always see something you've never seen before.
The Rangers ended up scoring a mere 9 runs in the 2nd game of the doubleheader to drop their run average on the day to 19.5. Think the Baltimore Orioles are second guessing giving Dave Trembley that extension? You'd think Bud Selig would have called Camden Yards and imposed a 25-run mercy rule. Guess it was possible the O-Birds could have hit 7 grand slams in the bottom of the 9th.
I was kind of disappointed though, I thought the O's would put one of their position players in to pitch once it got crazy. Remember Mark Grace coming in for the D-Backs when they trailed 17-0 to the Dodgers a few years back. Grace only gave up two more runs, so, really, he did better than the actual pitchers. Maybe Trembley was afraid if he did that, the Rangers may have scored 50.
Anyway, I was pretty sure I didn't smoke anything today, but I was quite confused when I saw that score. Maybe someone injected something into me on the bus today? Wait, I don't take the bus. Well, maybe that waitress dropped something in my Dr. Pepper? Wait, I didn't eat out. I must be smoking up in my sleep! No other explanation. Oh well, that score is insane!
