ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -- The Baltimore Orioles fired manager Lee Mazzilli on Thursday with the team mired in an eight-game losing streak and still reeling from Rafael Palmeiro's positive drug test.

The Orioles have made bench coach Sam Perlozzo the interim manager for the remainder of the season.

The announcement was made just two hours before Baltimore's game at Anaheim, and three days after Palmeiro was suspended for taking steroids.

3. I am in agreement with you on Palmeiro

HELLO Amurka - it is RARE that men in their mid-thirties would need boner drugs....the need for Viagra can be attributed to steroid use!
