I'm a little afraid to toss this question around in the bar today. I'm afraid some of you may be throwing haymakers if the discussion gets heated. It could turn into a donnybrook or brouhaha if things get ugly. (Yes, I know it is a fake bar, there will be no physical altercations. But it allowed me to get the words donnybrook and brouhaha into a blog. I'm forever grateful for my imagination). Anyway, for Tuesday's paper I wrote a story about Orioles third baseman Manny Machado and his rapid ascension from prospect to one of the best young players in the big leagues.

Some criticized the Orioles for not acquiring middle-of-the-order bat this offseason, but so far in this young season, they have gotten excellent production from the third, fourth and fifth hitters in their batting order. Through 18 games, hitters for the Orioles in those spots have combined for a .356 average with 18 doubles, 14 home runs, 43 runs scored and 47 RBIs. In the weekend series against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Camden Yards, hitters in those spots went 7-for-11 with three runs scored, a double, a homer and two RBIs.

Cal Ripken continued a home run barrage last night that began in late May when manager Davey Johnson was toying with the idea of moving the shortstop to third base.Ripken isn't going anywhere.Since that trip to Seattle, Ripken has gone deep and driven in runs at a remarkable rate. He's now on pace to put up numbers similar to his 1991 MVP season in which he hit 34 homers, drove in 114 runs and batted .323.The world's most durable baseball player was at it again last night in consecutive game 2,223.

Jason Giambi and Jorge Posada homered and Bernie Williams went 5-for-5 for the Yankees, who ended a three-game skid despite another subpar outing from Mike Mussina. Howard hit his 24th and 25th homers to tie the injured Albert Pujols for the major league lead and had a tiebreaking two-run triple in the seventh.

CLEVELAND - The Orioles and Cleveland Indians took their time yesterday deciding what eventually became the Indians' 12-11 win in 13 innings at Jacobs Field. Before they were done, Indians center fielder Kenny Lofton screamed his return as a base-stealer and Orioles first baseman Chris Richard suggested his time is near with his new organization. The pitching-thin marathon was played in miniature between Richard and Lofton. Lofton ended it with a one-out home run off Mike Trombley in the 13th inning after stealing a club-record five bases in the first seven innings.

CHICAGO -- Mike Bordick, the Orioles' unlikeliest slugger, has quietly added another distinction to a breakout April. Two days after the fact, it was learned that the Orioles' shortstop has broken the 31-year-old franchise record for April RBIs. The feat occurred Tuesday night in the third inning of the Orioles' 12-6 win over the Chicago White Sox. Bordick lofted a sacrifice fly to right field that scored Rich Amaral and gave him 25 RBIs, one more than Frank Robinson collected in 1969.

Glenelg senior shortstop Leah Allen has to go way back to recall her first memory with a bat in her hand. When she was 2 years old, Allen would go to the backyard with her father, Harold, and play with a Wiffle ball and bat. She signed up for an organized softball league as soon as she was old enough. A four-year starter, two-year captain and returning All-Metro first-team selection, Allen is the do-it-all catalyst who has led the No. 2 Gladiators to an 9-0 record so far this season.

First baseman Joe Mahoney, who was designated for assignment by the Orioles earlier this week, has been claimed off waivers by the Florida Marlins. Mahoney was designated on Wednesday to make room for newly acquired third baseman Danny Valencia. The Orioles acquired Valencia from the Red Sox for cash considerations. “You're surprised when something like that happens,” Mahoney said. “But when it happened I was hoping I would get another opportunity from another team and I did, so I'm looking forward to turning the page and getting an opportunity to play down south.” The 25-year-old Mahoney was called up to the Orioles twice last season, making his major league debut on July 7 in Anaheim.

Glenelg's David Boteler turned in one of the most impressive batting performances of the season last Monday.He smashed three base hits off Centennial's Denny Chapman, one of the toughest pitchers in the Baltimore area this season. Chapman throws in the 85- to 90-mph range and has a scholarship to Virginia."Even though I played with him all through the Howard County Youth Program, with the radar guns and all his press lately I guess I'd have to say I was a little intimidated by him," Boteler said.

Cabrera lifting Tigers Phil Rogers Chicago Tribune I know Mike Trout has done historic things, but unfortunately his Angels team is also history, eliminated from the wild-card race on Monday, the same day that Miguel Cabrera's Tigers clinched the AL Central title. That's a difference-maker to me in the MVP vote. I will take Cabrera over Trout because one will play in the postseason and the other will not. Trout was a better player this year, and as such is a strong candidate for the Hank Aaron Award, but the Tigers wouldn't have sniffed October without Cabrera and now they have a chance to win the World Series.
