Where Was This Team Back In April, May, June, and July?!
I never thought I’d be typing this in the 2007 season, but this team has been flat-out fun this week. It’s amazing what a little offense can do, and I think I speak for all of us when I say that w...
Well, I Think That Went Well
Assuming, of course, we completely ignore the bottom of the second. After the A’s put a 2-spot on the board for Braden in the top of the inning via a homerun off the bat of Marco Scutaro (who had qu...
<rubs eyes> What Just Happened?! What Sport Is This?!
Well, after tonight’s game started out with, "Hi, I'm Travis Buck, and I’ll be your superstar for the evening", it continued with "Hi, I’m Joe Blanton, and I’m going to suck the life out of a ...
This Team Suck-diddily-ucks! Wait! No They Don’t! Yes They Do.
Well, that’s the last time I make fun of a player’s last name. So sorry, Salty. A thousand apologies. I kind of wish you hadn’t gotten that hit to spite me, but then again, would it have mattere...

I don’t know about the rest of you, but pretty much for the whole month of July, I kept waiting for a winning streak. I thought if the A’s could just win a couple of games in a row, then we might ...
Was There Something You Wanted Me To Say?
Well, I guess we can talk about why Kendall is still playing every day. I guess we could also talk about how awful the A's look at almost every at-bat. I guess we can simply say that if your offense c...
Well, If You Can’t Beat Them At Baseball...
That’s all she wrote, folks. Games don’t come much uglier than this one. Today’s frustration obviously piled up for Blanton, set off by a bases-clearing hit by Seattle, after the A’s failed to...
Happy Fourth of July – Hope Fireworks Are Better Than The Game
Well, the tone of the game was set early, after Kennedy put the A’s in a deep hole after pitching two thirds of an inning, allowing four runs. Shane Komine came in to temporarily slow the bleeding, ...
