What. A. Week. Stephen Piscotty hit absolutely out of his mind, and it wasn’t close to the biggest thing to happen in the online world. That honor goes to Mark Canha, whose bat flip and ensuing “sorry not sorry” comments essentially melted the MLB Twittersverse. What a time to be alive.
Bask in this glory:

Mic. Drop.
Thoroughly enjoyed Mark Canha (@outtadapakmark) rescinding his apology for a bat flip. He could win Game 7 of the World Series with a bottom-of-the-ninth home run, and it still wouldn't be a better walk-off than: "If you're offended by that, I don't care." pic.twitter.com/Hy6aYTu9CU

If you said you predicted this statement a year ago, you’d be lying.
Mark Canha is what baseball needs, man.

Did this week even really happen? “#Piscotty2Hotty” seems to be what the Twittersphere is running with, FYI.
Stephen Piscotty just homered in the fourth straight game. That's something I thought I'd never tweet. Gotta be kidding me.

Straight cheesin’.
Love his pitching, but, Sean Manaea may not be the most intimidating hitter in baseball. pic.twitter.com/XHdebM14fk

Buchter got coughed on by Chapman and caught a case of awesome defense.
.@Athletics pitcher Ryan Buchter made back-to-back plays that almost didn't happen:

It’s almost sacrilegious to suggest this, but ... do we bring back the Bernie Lean?
I refuse to compare 2018 to 2012.

I really do. It’s not fair.

Imagine if Muncy Mania had happened a year ago ...
The best part of the A's being good is that the A's are good. The second best part about the A's being good is that Max Muncy can be a fun, surprising story and we can enjoy it rather than being bombarded with Beane/Muncy #takes

Never. Write. It.
I keep almost writing my article about how Stephen Piscotty is on fire, then put it off for one more day, and then he homers to keep the story idea relevant. Three days in a row that's happened. Maybe I'll just never write it and see how far this ride goes?

Pour one out for Santiago Casilla’s – and of course, Jairo Garcia’s – time in the Bay.
"This guy is a true Bay Area hero."

After spending his entire career with the @Athletics and @SFGiants, Santiago Casilla's time in the Bay is likely at an end. (via @BenRossSports)https://t.co/diYhM3huU8 pic.twitter.com/L3zFHeogQh
You taking orders?
@Athletics thank you for being the inspiration in my new design!! Go A’s, win the Bay Battle today!! #RootedInOakland #GTS pic.twitter.com/o4nIpSHtHa
