Open Thread: Game 155 - A's at Angels (cont.)
It doesn't take a f***ing molecular biologist to know you don't throw an 0-2 fastball down the middle but...10-9 Angels after 7 bizarre innings.

Fresno State gave Cincinnati all they could handle.
We didn’t just lose to Oregon, we were totally destroyed, demolished and crushed. Still, Oregon is a pretty good team; however, I thought it’d be a relatively close game.
Mississippi, Penn State and Miami were other top teams to lose. We were not alone today. This is just one loss. We have to win next week’s game, though, or else we can’t win the Pac-10.

For Christ Sakes Breslow
how the hell do you have a 3.44 ERA?
If this is any indication, it will not be that way much longer
I'm not sold on him
His command is pretty “come and go” both in and out of the strike zone. He’s not bad, but to me he’s “second tier.”

I seem to recall him giving up GW bombs
several times this season.
Very mediocre and second tier like Nico says.
Here's where I think you go to Bailey
Heart of the order, runners on. The save is now. Gray can pitch the 9th if Bailey shuts the Angels down in the with 0-1 runs in the 8th.

I agree....
When they play like they are in the hunt – when they are so out of the hunt I feel like they have some heart. I’m not sure I could have said that at some other points in the season. It gives me hope for next year even though we might not have all the pieces in the house to go post-season. But like I posted in a thread recently – I believe in the magic and intangibles!!

Kendall scored the winning run when KRod didn't catch the throw back from the catcher.

K-Fraud missed the return throw from the catcher because he tried to do this lame glove flip.
Ball rolled behind him, and Jason Kendall dashed home from third.
