The lineup was:
LF Damon
SS Tejada
1B Giambi
DH Saenz
RF Piatt
CF Long
C Hernandez
3B Chavez
2B Ortiz
Barry Zito got bombed and the A’s lost 9-8, to start the season 2-9.
Adam Piatt was once a No. 5 hitter
With Saenz batting cleanup.

he has not thrown one Barton has had to do to splits to get. Good on’ya Penny!
Two walks to Peralta? C'mon.

99% of the time they are here as well....that 1% can be really bad though

I've lived in Kansas or Arkansas since 1991....never had a real problem

But I know I’d have to live on one of the coasts – and the Carolinas are way too humid.
"Nah, you look like Elijah Wood." - danmerqury
Yep it's muggy there
but I really like North Carolina quite a bit and it’s not as muggy as Hawaii.

Hawaii is muggy?
I might have to rethink this.
I’ve been told most of SE Asia is muggy too. Couldn’t live like that.

Please get the out
Wow, that was a ridiculous outing by Gio.
Not often you see 6 Ks, 6 BBs, 0 Rs, and 6 innings.
"Life is a horizontal fall" -Jean Cocteau
That'll do, Gio.
Strikeouts good, walks bad. In the end, it worked.
A free society is one where it is safe to be unpopular.
6 IP, 6 BBs, 6 Ks
Looks like Gio circa 2009 made an appearance today.
"We were shit, pathetic," Guillen growled early in spring training. "We hit too many home runs."
hmm.
the title of the thread is good for two innings in a row.
I like having a reliever who isn't a "long man" or a "one inning short guy"
When Gio hits his pitch limit you could give the ball to Ross and let him go as long as he’s effective, be it 1-2 innings or 3.

The A's should play a 7 inning scrimmage before every game...
So instead of scoring in the last couple innings they score in the first couple.
More like Earist!

I really think so.
There is no "i" in Teamocil. At least not where you'd think.

Teams usually get to Coke by hitting home runs.
So you can see why he’s still in the game.

Really? Al Albuquerque?

Come on A's!
I really want to use this “Coke is NOT it!” zinger I’ve been holding onto for a few innings now.
I know, right?
I’ve been sitting on that one too.
A free society is one where it is safe to be unpopular.
You know what we could really use?
The ChiSox outfield.

And bullpen
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal
I've also thought about the what ifs of combining our pitching staff with Cincy's offense.
why cincy? i don’t know
you mean the last 2 years

At this point I'd settle for scoring earned runs in 6 in a row.

Jumpin' Jesus... ya think Zooks could use a day off?????
All Powell has done is hit!
If Phil Coke shuts us out
I’m gonna drink myself into a coma.
Like, even more than usual.

This is simply pathetic
A’s baseball. Great pitching for us and garbage hitters who get out thought and overmatched by a former bullpen pitcher.
NEW THREAD OPEN
