Big bats
The Yankees exploded against the Orioles last night and swept the three-game series with an 18-5 win in Baltimore. The New York Times' Tyler Kepner likens the rout to letting George Steinbrenner loose on an XBox baseball game.
Things have gone a little sour for the Orioles, who were fired up going into this season after their high-profile free-agent signings. Thomas Boswell has a good piece on Orioles manager Lee Mazzilli, pointing out that becoming a big-league manager only really starts when your team starts losing. It's going to be a good test for Mazzilli - how do you keep everyone convinced that those half-empty glasses are really half-full and that better times are just around the corner?
