Open Thread: Game 30 - A's at Angels (cont.)
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!

I saw one listed in the newspaper once.
Giants playing Pirates, Pirates ahead 7-1, two outs, ninth inning.
Giants win, 8-7.

Hmm 1st place...
But according to Eastern Sports Programming Network we are probably tied for 3rd in the West and a .500 team.
The goal!??
A split was the minimum acceptable outcome!!
Nah, it was great. A good baseball series!

Feel sorry for those
who rushed to pickup that terrible rookie the Angels threw out there on 3 days rest for their fantasy team. He was lights out alright…..
turns out Suzuki caught that pitcher, so
Suzuki already had a book on him.
Didn’t matter, he could not pitch a strike.
Tough beginning.
And, you know, compare that to Greg Smith. After Smith hit the first batter, and had some runs scored, he could have emulated the Adenhart fiasco. But, instead, he righted the ship and kept on pitching.
Greg Smith! Get used to it!

He caught Adenhardt in some “Pan American Games” or some other Non-Olympic, olympic-like USA-not-top-professional- international competition. Teammates!

When I was a kid back in the 80s plaza was $6.
I remember paying 2 bills for bleachers though…
Fremont is basically a parking lot with a mayor
We're of the same era
and the bleachers were hot as F. Burned my little legs.

I remember the bleachers being 50 cents when my dad first started taking me
he was outraged when they went to $1
Who's the Panther?
