New Sports Marketing Technique

This is an actual email sent by the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network (MASN), the Baltimore Orioles' tv network:

Corey Patterson
AL leader in sacrifice bunts.
Some call it small ball.
Corey calls it smart ball.
Patterson and the Orioles take on the Washington Nationals starting Friday.

Sacrifice bunts... yeah that makes for great, entertaining tv....

Corey Patterson
We'll tell you he plays "smart ball."
Who are we kidding?
