Open Thread: Game 10 - A's vs. Mariners (2)


We head to the third inning; Fantastic Fox put the A's up 2-0 in the second. Gio got in trouble in the bottom of the inning, but thanks to an interesting (read: bad) baserunning error by Milton Bradley, he escaped with a scoreless inning.

You can get poutine in Oakland

At Oh My Dawg in Jack London Square and Flora in Uptown (where the stadium should be). I had a tasty interpretation a few months ago at a food conference from a visiting chef that was light on the curds and heavy on the short-rib gravy. Montrealers tell me you have to be drunk to really appreciate true poutine, though.
