Last Place Update - August 22, 2011

The 42-85 Houston Astros lead the 47-77 Baltimore Orioles by 6.5 games for MLB’s Worst.  The O’s are losers of their last 5 games.  The 52-76 Kansas City Royals are 9.5 games behind the Astros and 3 games behind the Orioles.  The defending champion Pittsburgh Pirates continue to cruise away from the infamy of a repeat at 59-66.

On this day last year, the Pirates were 41-83.  The Astros are on pace to finish at 54-108.



On another note…

The drum and bugle corps season ends Labor Day weekend with the Drum Corps Associates World Championships.  Even though there were more contests after Labor Day in past years, I’m going to end making drum corps entries after then until the 2012 season begins.  At about the same time, I will begin writing entries for college and pro football.
