Rays Win In 18, Set Stage For Wide-Open Wild Card Finish
I gave up on this game in the 16th. If only the Orioles were so sleepy, they could have been spared two further innings and grief.

Here's Joe Flacco Enjoying Some Ice Cream In Denver
A reader passed along this photo of Joe Flacco enjoying an ice cream cone at Little Man Ice Cream in Denver. No word on what flavor he had, but because this is Joe Flacco, it was probably plain vanilla with one of those flavorless cones....

So does this mean this person prefers the Orioles over the Redskins? That he loves both teams with equal fervor? That he could only get one tattoo and couldn't decide which way to go? All of the above are plausible explanations. I'm thinking he lost a bet....
