If you want to find an indication of the Orioles' struggles the last decade, here's a defining metric. On Thursday, Adam Loewen became the first Baltimore pitcher since Sidney Ponson in 1998 to beat the Yankees twice in a season. Yes folks, they're in the same division, and play 19 times a year. I hope they spend some of this money they'll be getting from their new TV deal that Peter Angelos extorted from the Nationals on some good free agents next season.
