One silver lining to the Mariners' playing poorly is watching Jeff Sullivan get worked up.

In case you were wondering, the Mariners went 27.2 innings between runs and 38 at bats between hits. If you want to take it a step further, though, they went 57 at bats between hits that didn't bounce off of Mark Kotsay's glove before hitting the ground. For the sake of comparison, back-to-back no-hitters span 54 at bats. This weekend was, without question, the worst display of offense I've seen from one team in my entire life. So it wasn't a total loss, I guess.

He's had a lot of opportunities to practice this sort of statistical schtick over the last couple of years, more's the pity. 10:20PM «
