O's 5, White Sox 1: Guillermo for starting catcher!

Guillermo Quiroz hit a two-run homer to break a 0-0 tie in the sixth inning, and Brian Burres had a magnificent start, leading the O's to a 5-1 win in the first game of today's double-header in Chicago.

Burres went eight shutout innings, striking out four and allowing three hits. He didn't walk anybody, which is the real stunner.

Luke Scott was 0-1 in a pinch-hit appearance, which extends his slump. If you haven't noticed, he's down to a .310 average and hasn't seen first base since April 19. Jay Payton got the start against John Danks, who took a perfect game into the sixth inning before Guillermo bombed him, and went 1-for-3. So if you can say anything about Payton, it's that he's doing his best when called upon.

The Birds sealed the deal in the top of the ninth against Octavio Dotel, with Eider Torres (pinch-running for Huff) scoring on a Paul Konerko error, and Brian Roberts doubling Quiroz and Adam Jones home to make it 5-0.

Matt Albers came in for the ninth and got his cage rattled a little bit. George Sherrill replaced him with the bases loaded and two out, and promptly drilled Carlos Quentin, but then got Joe Crede, so big whoop.

The O's are 14-9, y'all.

Game 2 starts at 7:05, and I'll get a new game thread up for that one. I leave you with a question: Why does Toby Hall have a landing strip on his face?

The best part

Was his swing on the pitch before he hit the homer trying to protect AJ.

In addition

Toby Hall appears to have dyed the landing strip on his chin platinum blond. He’s a great candidate to be featured on hotchickswithdouchebags.com.

Just looking through the site.. hilarious:

“We haven’t had a good Hoverbag on the site in awhile. Generally speaking, we define Hoverbags as any scrotal pud that mucks up an otherwise perfectly good lesbian kiss pic.”

Classic.

I saw it immediately: Landing strip = Rochester Redwing Meat Sauce.

It’s not for careful eaters. I wonder who his supplier in Chicago is…
