Well, the Orioles are up in the Bronx trying to avoid the sweep that will inevitably take place tonight, but we have a side story that may prove to be more interesting that the final score of the game. That is, if it pans out like we want it to.
Joba "Bush League" Chamberlain is the starting pitcher tonight, and Aubrey "The Beast" Huff is in the lineup. If you don't remember, the last time Joba pitched against the Orioles, Huff took him deep and then threw a fist pump right in his face as he rounded first and then again at home. Joba said something to the extent of "he can do whatever he wants, he hit a home run off of me". That was in Camden yards. Now they're in Yankee Stadium. We'll see if Joba really meant what he said or if he was just a pansy/scared to retaliate in the Orioles home park. The option of him actually being that mature and humble does not exist.
I personally think that he is going to throw at Huff's head and then act like he didn't mean it and that "the ball got away", but then again, it's become standard fare for the umps to warn both sides before a Joba start, so he risks getting tossed early in the game if he really does in fact let the ball get away. Tough shit, though, that's what you get for being a headhunter. Hopefully, if Joba throws at Huff or one of the Orioles, they decide to sack up and go after him, as we watch him scurry off the mound and into center field like a scared little chihuahua. Tune in and see, bitches.
