We're going to knock balls out of the country's park, for the home team, which is America. @('.')@

Best yet

though admittedly that’s not saying much. Runner up is still “GERG”.

I was going to apologize for being before you, but the time on your comment is earlier than mine even though mine is ahead of yours on my page. Weird.

because of the food warning… can’t decide what’s funnier, the “food police” or the warning not to mix corn with mashed potatoes. HIL_AIR_EEE_US

It's *creamed* corn

It’s OK to mix regular corn with mashed potatoes.

Kazmir didn't get the memo

Why is he pitching him inside?

because once or twice in May, Crosby hit an inside fastball

All teams learned from that, and will never throw him another pitch inside ever again.

Crosby did hit that last one hard to CF.

Vote early and often!

Poll on the A’s official site:
When everyone is healthy, who leads off for the A’s?
Barton
Buck
Davis
Ellis
Zook.

I laughed so hard at “everyone healthy” that it took me a full minute to read the question.

This game is making me

hungry for some reason. I think a Taco Bell run is in order.

When will then be now? Soon.

Jack’s throw pulled M.Sweeney off the bag… Sweeney reached to tag Z, but apparently missed. Jack gets the E.

Geico is regular insurance. AFLAC is supplemental insurance. So AFLAC after Geico.
