PrintThe third batter of the practice season (Derek Lee) homered off Trevor Cahill and the A's have been playing catch-up ever since. Four other Cubbies have joined Lee in the long-ball department.
Bobby Crosby lookalike Adam Rosales provided some power of his own, and it was good for Oakland's first hit and run (not hit-and-run) of the Spring.
After 7 full, it's 9-2 Cubs.

Okay...
Do we have to listen to Micheal Savage ads during every game?
ARRRGGHHH!!!
I missed everything except the 1st out because I was infected by a virus. XP Antivirus 2010, it blocked everything and wanted me to buy it to “clean” my computer. I freaking hate those dick hackers that make these viruses. Luckily I had a computer tech on call and after a few hours we got it fixed. but CRAP i missed the game!

All you really missed was the Carter HR
Which I hope to see in a video highlight on the A’s site.

at least it wasn’t a great game.

did you get it cleaned up?
when I first contacted the tech he said “Oh, this is a bad one. Your hard drive could be toast” he freaked me out, luckily doing a system restore in safe mode fixed the problem.

Yes, but they physically removed my tower,
removed my hard drive and cleaned it off. It took him about 12 hours.
BTW, having a sign shop is excellent for trading services.
