Again, colin, feel free to correct these, although I’m pretty sure they’re right.

1. 3-1 Texas
2. A’s scored most in Game 1, yielded least runs in Game 2, no extra innings (thank God).
3. Outman: 6.2 IP, 3 ER, 9 K
4. Yes, AK’s game-winner today.
5. Gray: 1/3 IP, then back to the minors.
6. No hits for Rajai (did Geren really pinch-hit Davis for Holliday?)
7. Hamilton: 3 H, 0 HR, 4 K
8. From fangraphs, there were 4 line drives given up by Anderson.
9. Looks to me like 0 bunts were attempted.
10. 10 HR (4 in Game 1, 0 in Game 2, 3 in Game 3, 3 in Game 4).

Unfortunately, I’m going to have to suspend the GOG for the next week approximately. A combination of moving to a new apartment, not having internet hooked up yet, and leaving tomorrow for a short vacation means that I just don’t have the time to put a set of questions together (but I hopefully do have time to go out and see the A’s play tonight!).

I’m going to try to get a GOG posted in time for the series starting next Monday against Minnesota. In the mean time, have a fun week. Go A’s!
