PrintBraden's third inning could have gone better.
Travis Buck (2-run homer) and other assorted A's are trying to come back from a 6-0 deficit. It's currently 6-3, heading to the fifth.

no announcements yet
Slusser just noted that there is no obvious place for Gallagher’s last spring training start.
I'm confused! Is he or isn't he? Does anyone know?

Think of a rollercoaster ride with no restraints.

Slusser exclusive
Braden officially Game 1 Starter…Geren waited to tell him until after he came out of the game.
SuSlu says
Geren told Dallas after his tough inning, “Go back out and get ‘em 1-2-3, and you’ll be our opening night starter”.

like che guevarra said to butch cassidy, "bolivia nos mató."
this defeat definitely tempers the rotund 4-0 win maradona guided against venezuela 4 days ago. maybe, after all, diego isn’t a wonder coach just because he was a wonder player. or maybe he’s just not a wonder travel agent. why did he think it was a good idea to bring the team up from 1,300 feet in elevation to 11,942 (yes, 4 digits to 5) an hour before the game? you have to acclimate to that change, not surprise it. your body can’t take it. though i saw the 90 minutes, i can’t comment on the team’s play because they physically weren’t there. i think it’s best to take it as extended goalie practice and look to the next game.
don't care if i ever get back.

Horton sighting.
"Their Triple-A rotation, led by Trevor Cahill and Brett Anderson, could be better than some big-league rotations; Michael Ynoa is the best Latin American prospect of the decade; 2008 draftees Jemile Weeks and Rashun Dixon bring much-needed tools to an advanced group of hitters." - BaseballProspectus.com
Pennington doubles
2 score. 8-6, 1 away, runners at 2nd and 3rd.

For a while they wanted someone to back up SS and 3rd. Now they’re going to use their 2nd baseman and his backup.
