Yardwork: Carl Pavano's Majestic Mustache, And Jim Joyce's Emotional Return
By Tim Ryan
Braves 4, Dodgers 3: On May 18, the Braves were last in the NL East, 6 1/2 games back. Today they lead the division by three games.
Marlins 3, Brewers 2: Josh Johnson improved to 6-2. He sports an ERA of 2.10 and a 1.08 WHIP, but with guys like Ubaldo and Halladay owning the NL, no one gives a shit.
White Sox 4, Rangers 3: Freddy Garcia got the win? Freddy Garcia got the win! The Ranger bats should be ashamed of themselves.
Angels 5, Royals 4: It appears Zack Greinke (6 IP, 10 H, 4 ER) may have finally said fuck it. Can’t say I blame him. His record now stands at a criminal 1-7.
Yankees 6, Orioles 3: Brett Gardner hit a home run. If you find out what John Sterling’s witty call ended up being for this one, please don’t tell me.
A’s 9, Red Sox 8: How do you put together 18 hits and lose?
Astros 6, Nationals 4: I tried to put this game higher within the post, but it kept insisting on being last. On the bright side, Nats starter J.D. Martin has put together two solid starts.
