Orioles News - 9/13/07 - O's win - Trembley suspended 3 games, Cabrera suspended 6
Baltimore Orioles manager Dave Trembley was suspended for 3 games for his actions on Wednesday night, including pretending to eject the umpire who had blown a call. Orioles pitcher Daniel Cabrera was also suspended, but he was suspended for throwing a pitch at Boston Red Sox 2nd baseman Dustin Pedroia. The ball just missed Pedroia's neck. Cabrera got 6 games for that pitch. But yesterday, the Orioles finally won!! They have now won 4 of their last 22!!! Do you feel a comeback?!?!?!? Me neither. They won the game 3-0 over the Los Angeles Angels. The main story of the game didn't come on the field though. The main story was Miguel Tejada, who didn't play and was clearly upset about it. The Orioles didn't play him so that they could look at some of their younger talent at shortstop. Tejada was clearly frustrated. But, lets face it. Miggi isn't going to last forever, so why not look at the young talent they have at shortstop? It's not like the game even meant anything anyway, because the O's have already assured themselves of a 10th straight losing season. So why not? Brian Roberts, Ramon Hernandez, and Melvin Mora were also benched, as most of the players in the game were back-ups. They did good though, as shortstop Luis Hernandez went 3-4 and 3rd baseman Scott Moore drove in 2 runs. Tike Redman also drove in a run. This win came against 16-game winner John Lackey. Lackey is a Cy Young canidate too. Now if only we could do this everyday... - John T.
