Seems odd to have Okajima warming in the 6th, considering our lack of set up options (Saito, Okajima).
Nice quick two outs. If I'm the Orioles, I wouldn't be jumping out of my shoes to swing at the first pitch when Beckett is around 100.
You seem to know about Jones, so I have a couple questions. Does he have any pitches besides a 2SFB and a slider? He sucks against lefties, but is he going to be a ROOGY or a middle reliever?
Speaking of umpires and wide zones, I thought I'd throw out this article:

It's from 2007, but it's pretty interesting.
