-Strike through- called!

Sigh. Well, once again, the A's batters failed to show show up for the game ... um, wait a sec. {fiddles with rabbit ears} The A's got a few baserunners on, but couldn't come up with timely 2 out/2 st...

Phew <wipes profusely sweating brow>

Man, wasn't the bullpen supposed to be the unquestioned strength of this team?  Alan Embree surrenders a three-run bomb whereas he was lights out at the beginning of the year.  Huston Street...

Eight Is Enough, And Eight More Is Plenty

The problem with the A's is that they can't hit. Something sure turned things around in a hurry...Was it Scutaro's dramatic homerun, this year's version of the Kendall homerun (note the singular) whic...

Bring out the (mini) brooms!

Well, it was awfully considerate of Vlad and Howie Kendrick to watch the game from Los Angeles, instead of being in the lineup. Even with our missing Milton Bradley, I think that still worked out to o...

Give it up for the kid. Travis Buck with an electric triple, and this time he went the final 90 feet. How fitting for the game to end with Mienkiewicz desperately firing an offline three-hopper from t...

May The Best Manager Win

Score one for the rookie. The story is no longer about offensive ineptitude, it's about how it all ended so differently from how it started and continued, with the A's, shutout right down to their las...

I'd Like To Challenge the Angels To A Bullpen Duel

First of all, it must be said: I can’t remember a series, even watching the A’s all last year, where a team was so consistently terrible at hitting with runners in scoring position. Well, unless y...
