Open Game Thread: Game 26 - A's at Mariners (cont.)

A's trail the Mariners 2-0 going to the top of the 6th. Maybe the A's can swing their axes and break through against Hernandez and/or the Mariner bullpen.

Baek would have come in in the first inning with men on base and a 6-0 deficit. Batista didn’t have anything at all. The only out he earned was against Ellis. The rest we gave away.

Hmm
When he stops swinging at every first pitch, when he can play defense, when he doesnt do stupid things on the bases, when he can sustain an OBP over .315 (which is what it was before today).
Oh, and when he does all these things for more than 3-4 weeks.
