What's his salary, and what's the gate receipt from

Did you catch the AL scores on a recent day -

Cleveland 4-11-1
Angels 3-10-0

That's sensible enough.

Baltimore 16-22-1
Detroit 8-15-0

Yankees 15-17-0
KC 6-10-1

Toronto 15-22-1
Red Sox 4-10-1

Minnesota 11-17-1
Mariners 8-16-0

White Sox 13-9-0
Oakland 1-4-1

Tampa Bay 7-10-0
Texas 4-7-0

All but one game had double digit runs; all but two had
double digit runs by one team; and the one that didn't
have double digit runs had 21 hits!

Whatever happened to pitching?
