    After Morneau crushed an Edwin Jackson offering to the garden of allah in right field, Mauer greeted him at home plate, turned and whispered, "That's the last worthless evening, you're going to spend here."

    Dude lost me in the first two grafs. A good lede brings you in within the first two grafs.

    I once wrote a teaser head for a series on choosing which branch of Judaism to belong to as follows: "Pick your path, then pray."

    I think my then-roommate put it best (at least the first half of it): Most people won't get that. The ones who do will think you're brilliant."

    Haven't tried it since...

    BALTIMORE -- Just like a white-winged dove, Melvin Mora wants to leave the Orioles. He wants the team to stop dragging his heart around and just stand back while he seeks a deal.
