A's are up 2-0 going to the fifth inning. Greg Smith has looked much better tonight so far. But is it him or the poor Angels offense? You decide.
LET'S GO A'S!!!!!!!

Mike Sweeney enables "clubhouse chemistry" to be quantified
He's a very personable, sweet, nice chimp. He's not going to be aggressive unless he's provoked. @('.')@

So long as the ball is thrown well below the head.
But on a crappy changeup that Garland obviously just lost control of? That’s paranoid/hysterical. So, yes, Kendall would advocate doing that. Or Scioscia.

I'm dead serious here -
Pinch hitting for Cust (with E. Brown) would make a lot of sense, given the situation, a LHP coming in, and the fact that Cust should be leaving for defense in the bottom of the inning. Then you put Brown in the OF for Cust, or Brown and R. Davis for Cust and R. Sweeney (he looks like he’s hurting a bit).
