This week's question:
Somewhat overshadowed by his consecutive games streak was Cal Ripken Jr.'s consecutive innings streak in which he played 8,423 innings in a row from 1982 to 1987. Which player on the 1987 Orioles replaced him at shortstop to end the streak? Write your answers in the comments section.
Answer to last week's question:
Out of the four hitters listed, it is Nick Markakis who clubs the Rangers the most, to the tune of .345/.420/.621. Ouch.

Tuesday Trivia: Which Oriole Mashes the Rangers the Most?
After two weeks of absence, I am proud to announce the return of Tuesday Trivia! I've been trying to figure out a way to get more readers to respond to the question, and I have an idea:
A new trivia question will be posted on the upper right side of the page in poll-format every Tuesday. All you have to do is select the choice you think is correct. Try it out!
Just to keep a record of the question, this week's is:
TRIVIA: Which of the following current Orioles have the best career line at the plate (AVG/OBP/SLG) against the Rangers?
**Aubrey Huff
**Nick Markakis
**Gregg Zaun
**Brian Roberts
Be sure to answer in the poll on the upper right corner of the page.
Good luck, and go Rangers!
