Maybe Chris Ray Should Take A Hint From The Bible

Another Sunday, another Meltdown by Chris Ray, relief pitcher for my Baltimore Orioles. This time, coming in with a 1 run lead, he gave up a 2 run game winning homer to Vladimir Guererro of the Angels. He has blown 4 save chances this season, 3 of them on Sundays, and all of them in spectacular meltdown fashion. To Recap

Against the Yankees in April, comes in with a 7-6 lead, gives up a walk-off grand slam to Alex Rodriguez, O's lose 10-7

In May, comes in against Boston with a 5-3 lead, makes an error leading to the winning run scoring, O's lose 5-4

Another game, not on a Sunday, comes in with a 2-1 lead again against Boston, gives up another slam to Wily Mo Pena, O's lose 5-2

And Today

Maybe he should just tell Manager Sam Perlozzo not to pitch him on Sundays, Keeping the Sabbath.
