Open Extra Innings Thread: Game 99 - A's at Red Sox (cont)
by Flashfire on Jul 28, 2009 7:40 PM PDT
Email
PrintA surreal ninth inning sees the A's score three runs off Jonathan Papelbon with the aid of Tommy Everidge's first Major League hit, a double off the very top of the Green Monster, and some very bad Nick Green defense.
7-7 going to the tenth.

Perhaps we’ve been wrong to blindly follow the medical traditions and superstitions of past centuries. Maybe we should test these assumptions analytically, through experimentation and a “scientific method”. Maybe this scientific method could be extended to other fields of learning: the natural sciences, art, architecture, navigation. Perhaps I could lead the way to a new age, an age of rebirth, a Renaissance!

The impressive thing about this game to me is
the A’s have scored all of these runs without a single homerun.
Thank goodness some of those hits started coming with guys in scoring position and with 2 outs. Very nice boys…

Red Sox
are undoubtedly the most hated team by A’s fans.
The arrogance is just legendary. The bandwagoners in Oakland. 2003. The success of late. I just despise their fans and their players.
They're number one on my list.
