Given that every A's hit counts for $1 off Sunday plaza level tickets, or so the radio guys keep telling me, some of the A's players are trying to get us the opportunity to go for free! Not happy with the back and forth battle we've seen all game long, the A's have broken it open, racing to a 13-6 lead, with a 7-spot in the 5th.
And today's would-be goat Jack Cust is actually doing very well at the plate. Two hits, including a bomb to lead off the inning, and two walks... raising his batting average on the season to a sparkling .200.
Go A's!
