PrintVin Mazzaro (with some help from horrific first inning defense) put the A's in a 3-0 hole early, but thanks to Daric Barton's battle at the plate, the A's put two on the board themselves. It's 3-2 Rays, going to the bottom of the fourth.

May I just say that Jack Cust is awesome?
What a wonderful thing to see upon returning from my smoke break.
And let me say once again: that guy MUST be a part of next year’s team. He came back from what had to be one of the toughest lumps a ballplayer can take, and has done nothing but bust his ass for this team. I have gone, over the course of this season, from being basically a Cust-hater to an unequivocal Cust booster. He is one of the few A’s that can come to the plate and make me think, “You know what? We have a chance at this thing.”
