| Baltimore, MD (MySportsbook) - Baltimore Orioles outfielder Melvin Mora left Sunday's 7-6 victory over the Anaheim Angels after he was hit in the face by a pitch. With two outs in the bottom of the third, the Angels' John Lackey plunked Mora in the face, forcing him to leave the contest. Although he suffered a cut on the inside of his mouth, Mora's injuries are not serious and he is listed as day-to-day. The 31-year-old Mora, who is in his third full season with Baltimore, is second in the American League wit |

| defending World Series Champions have their work cut out for them if they hope to make a run for the American League West Division title with half the season already gone. Last night in the second game of a four-game set at Camden Yards against the Baltimore Orioles, Garret Anderson, who was named the All-Star MVP and the winner of the Home Run Derby earlier in the week, continued to swing the bat well for Anaheim, going 2-for-4 with a homer, three RBI and two runs scored.

Zito, 8-6 on the season with a 3.28 ERA, pitched eight scoreless innings on Sunday against the Baltimore Orioles and was reportedly told after the game by A's management that he would not be pitching in Tuesday's Midsummer Classic. They also informed the Commissioner's Office that Zito would not be pitching because of the 108 pitches he threw on Sunday. So the |

| === Anaheim Angels Team Report - July 18 === (MySportsbook) - The Anaheim Angels try to get back on the winning track this evening when they continue their four-game set against the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. In the series-opener on Thursday, Anaheim found itself on the wrong end of a 2-1 decision.

Anaheim's Ramon Ortiz (11-7) took the loss, despite giving up only two runs on six h |

| x, this weekend in Fenway would be as good as a time as any to get it going. The Blue Jays, armed with a lethal lineup, were one of the big surprises of the first half, as they pulled within a game of the first-place Yankees following a win over the Baltimore Orioles on June 23. However, the wheels started to fall off from there and Toronto limped into the All-Star break by dropping 14 of 19 including five of its last six against the Yankees and Red Sox. Toronto is now nine games off the pace set by the Yankees |

Anderson ripped a one-out double off Gagne. After pinch-runner Melvin Mora of the Baltimore Orioles went to third on a groundout by Carl Everett of the White Sox, Toronto's Vernon Wells made it a one-run game with a run-scoring double to left-center field. That set the stage for Blalock, hitting for Anaheim's Troy Glaus, who crushed a Gagne offeri |

This weekend the O's suffered a three-game sweep at the hands of the Oakland A's and were shut out twice during their stop at Network Associates Coliseum. Baltimore has just two wins in its last seven outings and 13 overall since the beginning of June. If nothing else the Orioles will |

Billy McMillon was intentionally walked, setting the stage for Ramon Hernandez' game-winning grounder. With the infield drawn in, Hernandez bounce |
