goose Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 The A's getting hammered by New York (1-6) in the sixth inning of an inter-league game. Good for NY. I didn't even realize the Mets were still in the majors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaFellaStrangiato Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Generally speaking, as someone who watches a lot of A's games, you can tell if they're going to lose or not by the 3rd or 4th inning. When they're destined to lose, they look frustrated and lost. When they have that 'scrappy' vibe about them, watch out. Even when they're losing. They are probably going to come from behind and beat you in the 9th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaFellaStrangiato Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 This, obviously, isn't one of those 'scrappy' games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 This, obviously, isn't one of those 'scrappy' games.They bounced back nicely today, with Moss and Crisp going deep, and Cespedes driving in three RBIs. 8-5 A's over Mets! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 A's score four in the ninth to defeat the fish, 9-4! RBIs... Donaldson 3 (59), Lowrie (27), Crisp (28), Reddick 2 (24), Cespedes (55), Vogt (12). Meanwhile, the A's retain the best record in baseball and a 4.5 lead on the Evil Empire (West Coast Edition). Still only one likely all-star for Oakland, while Jeter is the top vote getter for AL shortstop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wieters in in first for catchers and is out for the season, with Norris in second. Cespedes is in fourth for outfielders and probably deserves to get in on defense alone, but time is running out. Moss deserves it too, but there are a lot of good DH's this year, so the chances are slim. At any rate, it's good to see the A's getting some attention from the voters after two-and-a-half years of superior baseball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lerxt1990 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) Thought you guys might enjoy this. While my hapless Phillies were getting their asses kicked by the Braves this past weekend, a funny thing happened. As a publicity stunt, our announcers called the game from the last row of a small outfield section near the batters eye. Well here Freeman blasts a homer and while calling the game, our play by play guy catches it. He then, reluctantly, threw it back on the field when fellow announcer and former starting pitcher Jamie Moyer looked at him like he'd better. Im sure McCarthy got the ball later... http://i.kinja-img.com/gawker-media/image/upload/s--ImbeKZIg--/c_fit,fl_progressive,q_80,w_636/787986133883794754.gif Story and full clip...http://deadspin.com/...ball-1597381472 Edited July 1, 2014 by lerxt1990 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RushCanuck Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Happy Canada Day! 45000 + Blue Jay fans, myself included, enjoyed the Blue Jays 4-1 victory today over the Brewers (sorry Principled Man). Drew Hutchinson stuck out 10. It was a much needed win for the Jays, who have been struggling lately. Jose Bautista and Colby Rasmus hit HRs. Ryan Braun received many boos from the crowd. I had a great time, as did my family. Go Jays Go. :dweez: 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In both losses, the Brewer bullpen "dropped the ball", so to speak..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
