Open Thread: Game 128 - A's at Angels (Cont.)
After three full innings, the A's lead 5-1 over the Angels, on the back of a 2-run home run by Scott Hairston, a 2-run single through the infield by Kurt Suzuki, and a sacrifice fly by Mr. Jack Cust. Meanwhile, Brett Tomko gave up his alloted solo home run, and is hoping to keep his streak going as a member of the green and gold.

It’s all talk….he’s generous!
Everyone complains about him, but, he was a ML ballplayer, and played in Japan, so IMO he has cred..

which should correctly be described as "concrete".
“cement” is what “cements” the aggregate together, to make concrete.

About 50 miles up the road from here is a little town named "Concrete"
I thought that was just a quaintly ugly name for a town, until I drove through. It really is all made of concrete. Ugliest town in the state.

agree
if it was happening 4-6 times per game, every where, they’d have to rethink it. But instead, they get about four a week at most. Very tolerable, to get it right.

I think the complaints about it are overblown and I’d like to see it for more stuff like plays at the bases. Way too many incorrect calls this year.
