PrintBraden's getting into and out of trouble and a Kennedy grounder gives the A's the lead before a Cabrera single plates another run. 2-0 A's after three as Hairston just misses a homer.

It was a turning point in my life
It was the early days of Internet porn. Pictures were small and low-resolution, video was out of the question for a low-speed modem, and I was discovering Internet usegroups.
Going through the long list of alt.binaries.pictures.erotica… groups I went exploring. “Scat? Hmm, I wonder what that is.”
“… Oh my God, no! No no NOOOOO! Make it stop!!!”
Growing up I always assumed that dirtier was better. That day I learned it is not so.

Center field....
I have not been impressed by Hairston in CF since he joined the A’s. He took a poor position on that ball off the wall, and he made two poor throws last inning. Seems like a regular problem. At what point do we admit the guy’s a right fielder and put Sweeney/Davis back in center?
What position was he playing on the other team?

His arm is why he is in CF
Teams usually want a stronger arm in RF. I think Hairston’s position will eventually be LF when Holliday is gone, but for now the A’s will stow him in center.

I do.
Just not Sweeney’s particularly, nor do I find him very hot to begin with, so the tats don’t make him hotter.

Actually no, I've got several new tattoos planned.
I’m going to get a modified version of Drama Masks on my calves — smile now on 1 side, cry later on the other.
Only the masks will have more realistic looking faces on them, kinda animated style, and the smile now side will have its’ mouth sewn shut while the cry later side is screaming.
Yes, I’m normal. STFU.
