The American League East often is called the toughest division.
Friday, however, the AL West dominated the East with four shutouts.
The A’s blanked the Yankees 2-0, the Mariners beat the Jays 4-0, the Rangers pounded the first-place Red Sox 7-0 and the Angels limited the Orioles to just three hits in a 3-0 win.
STATS Inc. says it’s the first time one division shut out another four times in a day since 1981 and third time ever since divisional play started in 1969. The NL West did it to the NL East on May 12, 1981, and the AL East did it to the AL West on June 7, 1969.
We’ll see how things turn out tonight.
Chances are it won’t happen again for a long time.

Will Middlebrooks had one heck of a day Sunday, smashing three home runs.
Middlebrooks almost hit a fourth homer, but he flew out to the warning track in the eighth inning.
The Red Sox beat the Blue Jays 13-0.

The Erie SeaWolves released their official 2013 Eastern League schedule before Saturday night’s game against the Altoona Curve at Jerry Uht Park.
Coincidence or not, those teams also will open next season on the same diamond. Erie welcomes the Curve for the first four games of a seven-game homestand, with the opener set for April 4 at 6:35 p.m.
Erie’s full 2013 schedule, with starting times for all games at Uht Park, is listed below.

This is one late season race that no baseball team wants to find itself involved, but that’s where the Erie SeaWolves find themselves going into the waning games of the Eastern League’s 2012 season.
The SeaWolves were nudged nine innings closer to clinching the league’s worst record after Bowie beat them 4-2 Tuesday night at Prince George’s Stadium.
Erie is last in the league’s Western Division at 56-79. The New Hampshire Fisher Cats, last in the Eastern Division, were 59-77 after Tuesday’s 9-3 loss to Portland.

Monday was the Erie SeaWolves’ last day off before the end of their 2012 Eastern League season.
The SeaWolves, who were idle over the last two days because of Sunday’s cancelled game against Portland, open a four-game series in Bowie with Tuesday’s 6:05 p.m. doubleheader at Prince George’s Stadium. Erie (53-66) will try to tamper with the Baysox’ bid to clinch the Western Division’s wild-card playoff berth.
Bowie (62-58) goes into the series in second place, eight games behind first-place Akron and 1 1/2 ahead of the Richmond Flying Squirrels.

Sunday’s cancelled game at Jerry Uht Park meant the Erie SeaWolves will have more than 48 hours off until they resume their dwindling regular season.
Erie (53-66) was originally scheduled to be idle for a third consecutive Monday. The SeaWolves will then travel to Bowie for the first of two August series against the Baysox (62-58) at Prince George’s Stadium.
The teams’ four-game series begins with Tuesday’s 6:05 p.m. doubleheader. Those two seven-inning games were necessitated by an April 22 rain out in Maryland.

Sunday’s Eastern League game between the Erie SeaWolves and the Portland Sea Dogs at Jerry Uht Park was called off around 1:10 p.m. because of inclement weather.
The game will not be made up because of the teams’ records and travel distance. Erie was 53-66 in the Eastern League’s Western Division and Portland 55-65 in its Eastern Division.
Fans who had tickets for Sunday’s game can exchange them for a future game.
The SeaWolves are off Monday, and then open a four-game series at Bowie with a Tuesday doubleheader. They return to Jerry Uht Park for a six-game homestand that starts Friday.
