Open Thread: Game 75 - A's vs. Tigers (cont)

Against all odds, the A's have managed to scrape together two runs, and Anderson has danced out of trouble all night, most recently getting the much-needed shut-down inning. We go to the bottom of the fifth; 2-0 A's!

I Have been watching MLB highlights on 276

My friend is over here using my computer to type some letters.

I see we are winning

I see that waste of roster space has been jettisoned to AAA where he belongs. And add that he should never see our ML roster again. Good to see Buck here.

I see Brett Anderson did well considering he threw 83,000 pitches but got himself out of all trouble

As long as we somehow pound the slegnA when we play them and our good players continue to progress and that Geren is fired then that is all I ask. Asking to get to .500 is too much to ask at the moment
