PrintI am not sure who is struggling more: Mazzaro or AN. Technical difficulties suck.
Oh, and the A's are down 2-1 after two.

Even with those two in it's pretty crappy.

Mazzaro has pitched very well this inning.
One crappy bounce off of a mound and two phenomenal hitters that hit sharp breaking pitches below the knees.
Well, I'm done watching this game.
Idiotface benches the two best hitters on the team, can’t get runs in, and now the Rangers are scoring runs.
This is shaping up to be one of those 9-1 games that nobody should have to watch.

I disagree about the reliever or two.
If we had worthwhile bat in one of the COF positions we’d win more of Anderson’s/Cahill’s/Gio’s/Braden’s starts. They tend to keep us in games.
