Orioles still in 1st place in AL East??

We're days away from June, and the surprising Baltimore Orioles are still in first place in the AL East, 1 game ahead of Tampa Bay as of this writing.  It's nice to have a baseball team to cheer for in Charm City that is actually the team associated with the city.  Even if they don't make the playoffs (which is much easier this year with the two new wildcards), I hope they keep it interesting by staying in the race most of the season.  Sports Illustrated says their best year(s) may be ahead of them, with a top pitching prospect and a top hitting prospect tearing up the minors right now.
