What does that even MEAN

He had to fight off Sweeney to get that.
Ryan tried to shank Dale by the dugout.

He switches positions

Fair arguments to be made
on both sides regarding Smith in the 9th. I let him pitch it. But that’s just me. I like complete games.
If they want to spare his arm with a low pitch-count outing,
that’s fine – let Ziggy close it out. Or let Smith finish.

The Angels bullpen is not really lights out this year.
The A’s have scored quite a few runs off them. I wonder where their bullpen ERA ranks in the league

I said it in a FanShot and I'll say it again
Coors Light is the only beer company that relies on gimmicks on their cans to sell the contents inside. My brother actually drinks Coors Light all the time. Then again, he’s a big Red Sox fan too so we know he has no taste.
by Tyler Bleszinski on Jun 30, 2008 9:40 PM PDT reply actions
No, really.
Fat Tire isn’t that great.
Get your hands on some Chimay Gran Reserve, Akita Turbodog, or some Young’s Double Chocolate Stout.
Meh
Chimay is very overrated (Delerium Tremens, for example, blows it out of the water)
Abita is ok
Youngs is good, but not a clear improvement on Guinness
You're wrong
Sorry. I’ve had plenty of Chimay in my time. Not fond of it.

Ellis' hit is a great example
of why it’s good not to strikeout if you can flail at two pitches and then flail at another one and hit it too softly to injure a mouse.

Bullpen ERA
A’s bullpen has 7th best ERA in MLB.
A’s bullpen has the 5th best ERA (3.28) in the American League. Angels are 11th with 4.12 ERA. Those stats probably aren’t updated for tonight’s game.
