"Game continues" gives away too much
How about “Game may or may not continue, depending on weather and other factors.”

Question: If the White Sox steal
when the A’s are down 3-0, is it considered “running up the score”?

was facing the right way, blocking home plate, catching the ball, and tagging the runner.

What a great way to win a game.

The nice thing about that is one way or another it was deep enough for a sac fly, so the bunt was a good move ;-)

i think when zook hit it
he was expecting sac fly. when he looked at the ball in flight, i’m sure he was thinking “OMFG”

Kudos to Bob Geren tonight
Because he managed the 9th inning perfectly. And I’m not just saying that because it worked. In an IM conversation I said how DFA for Miley was a good move, pinch running for DFA was something you had to do (then he did it). Barton bunting was the right call, and while I wish Suzuki could get a day off once in a while, one at bat isn’t going to hurt matters any.
He made the right call in every situation and they all worked. Good for him.

Especially love the flip of the bat!
Thank God! The A’s really needed a game like this. Man, sure feels good to me, too.

You heard it here first: The A's are going to get hot (finally)
Look out Rangers!

Wow - for once the game's over and I'm not mad

How was his velocity tonight? I didn't think to look
When he’s throwing 93, he’s still really good.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...
This is like the second time in a couple of days that the A’s score 6 runs. Overwhelming.

Have we had a pinch hit homer of any kind in the past 5 years? I can't think of one.

maybe Bowen should play once a week so we get some fire off the bench

After that performance by Suzuki...
I bet that you won’t see Bowen start a game for at least 10 more games.

vote for the reason there is no post-game wrap...
1. NSJ went comatose after seeing the A’s comeback win;
2. A small asteroid hit NSJ’s house;
3. NSJ fell asleep watching the A’s;
4. All of the above.

it's Cust's fault
AN is equipped with an alarm system to wake mods up whenever Cust strikes out — we figured that should have been enough to keep us on our toes to post 1-2 extra game threads plus the game wrap every day.

That and it knocks everyone out when he homers twice in the same game, right?
