Trembley wakes up from nightmare

We've been feeling the pain of the Orioles manager since his big day was ruined by that humiliating 30-3 loss to the Texas Rangers. Then his team went on to lose another eight games. Dave Trembley had not logged a win since the front office named him manager for the remainder of 2007 and for 2008. Tonight, this nightmare ended. Trembley got tossed by umps while aggressively arguing a call at third base -- we've never seen him like this -- and he was absolutely right to do it. (Clearly, he was right on the call). And he reminded us of Earl Weaver in the process. He must have inspired his team. They beat Boston, 9-8. Very nice way to end the Orioles' grim slide. More, more, please, we want more.
