OK so it's 3-3 in the 11th. I was putting my daughter to bed and completely missed what happened. Are we going to have a tie again?

a dance-off to determine home field advantage?
That’s the one idea of Buck’s that I’ve actually liked. Can we get Zito and Chavvy to do their little postseason victory dance?

I was just looking at Carlos Quentin's wiki page...
After noticing his 900 OPS this season, and thought shucks, wouldn’t it have been nice if the A’s had drafted him.
Or if they had traded Christopher Carter for him, instead of receiving him for Haren. A’s got the wrong end of that? Hopefully patrol craft can eventually put up what Quentin is doing.

Hitting for incredible power in High A. 26 ish homers I think.
His average is coming around too – .260ish I think. Meant to be manning 3rd and one of the corners in the outfield too (though sadly not at the same time, he’s no Jeter).

I just found a bunch about him by searching, actually.
Yeah, the bat’s a good sign, but people don’t seem to expect him to be able to play 3b.
