Hey, wait, this is like, 35% baseball at most.
It's 5-0 Angels as we start the 9th, and the stills from the game indicate just how intense the A's offensive attack has been tonight.

Just a note, because I hate the whole
“defensive indifference” thing (first of all, I think a SB should be awarded, but whatever). If Kennedy is at 1B, Rajai’s ball is a DP. Instead…one more baserunner…? And Fuentes had to come in regardless.

Public school does not exist to serve the kids; public school exists to serve the public. And the public derives more benefit from educating inner-city kids than from educating suburban kids.
