Doctor My Eyes

Yeah, I know about small sample size and the paucity of BA as a meaningful statistic.  But I gotta say, here in the 8th inning tonight, I'm digging the top of the order:

 

.300

.346

.346

.333

.217

.381

 

It's just so tasty and...unusual (in the A's Box, anyway.)  I can't help but enjoy it.  We keep getting more hits than the other team.  It's all very disorienting, but fun.

I give up.

What team is that?

Why, it's Our Red-headed Friend ...

… and his friends.

Ok so at Saturday's game Stomper had gold hair (as he should) but

his hat comes off?! He took his hat off several times. I’ve seen Stomper many many times but never have I seen him take off his hat, I always assumed it was attached.

It was odd, I also assumed it was attached.

Plus he had that new costume look, by seasons end it must be a bit rank.

Enjoy the game

It's a new costume, methinks.

Last year’s model got pretty worn-out and, uh, gamey.

I’ll be satisfied if his head stays on this year. Three pre-adolescents are still in therapy after last season’s “incident.”
