hmmm, maybe Ozzie was right

or da Sox are just puh-thetic:

the highest batting average in tonight's lineup is Erstad at .270.

That's followed by .200, .208, .209, .190, .221, .215, .261, .000 (that's not a pitcher, it's Gus Molina).

Of course, batting average is the most overrated stat in the game, and it's a good thing, too--because this team sucks at it.
