Mets/Yanks?
(too easy, so obviously wrong)
Probably someting like San Diego/Texas, or Seattle/Toronto
ETA: I read that wrong, so Mets/Yanks is probably one set.
O's/Reds
Padres/Braves
Padres/Rangers
Rays/Astros

Someone doesn't know the different between latitude and longitude. Never get on a boat that Kranepool is piloting!

Oakland/SF may not be within a degree; but they are only about 35 minutes apart, with light traffic.
(a little longitude joke there)

It's July, and an old, DL-laden Phillies team is going up against a first place Pirates squad.
I don't know about the rest if you, but I'm really looking forward to this MJ-Magic team-up in Barcelona next month.

Timmy tossing a gem. Haven't seen his split this effective in years. Three hits and one run surrendered through five. Howevah, Homer has gone fifteen up, fifteen down. Thus, it is hex time. Perfect game into the sixth, Homer Bailey.
