Open Thread: Game 100 - A's at Red Sox (cont)
The first inning got its own thread; it's only fair that the ninth does as well.

Nice win.
Too much nail biting in the 8th and 9th, but I’ll take it.

If the A's win tomorrow and the Red Sox miss the playoffs
by 1 or 2 games, it will totally carry me through the off season

The A's led after every pitch tonight.
Had Drew HRed, of course, the Red Sox would only not have trailed after one pitch tonight.

That would have been a fascinating sort of baseball palindrome but...
I’m much happier things turned out the way they did.

Yeah. If palindromes were all that, Mark Salas would have been a better player.
