Then he wouldn't be able to see the strike zone with his good eye.

I. Am. Calling. A. Nunez. Homer.

Forget the bunt. Swing away Danny.

Gonna get a breaker here.

Let Nunez swing the bat. Come on.

Could have held out.

Our best Eduardo has to sacrifice?

Any chance Dozier will have a good situational AB? Nope.

Poor management call there.  You sacrifice Nunez who's hitting .338 to set up Dozier hitting about .200 and prone to strikeouts.  Like you couldn't see that strikeout coming from a mile away.  Pathetic.

Now Kurkjian sounds like he's on pain killers.

Arcia looks like he hasn't had many ABs lately. Probably because he hasn't had many ABs lately.

Too many walks, eh?

F***ing sweet play by Alonso.

darn it!!!!!

Is anyone else forced to watch it this Llama ad every single commercial break?

I would like to be forced to watch an ad. Games in Oakland are blacked out by MLB.tv when I am in northern Nevada.

 

Poor planning on my part.

now THAT Airman can sing!!!

Head over to the Cal-Neva and catch this one on ESPN.

Too bad Mauer got robbed on that.

I like to think that my 9 months in Michigan was an experience and I got some stories but it just wouldn't compare to 6 months with the 164th in 1942. 

Exactly. Now if you had spent the time in Wisconsin...

Any sense of the anticipation you're starting to feel over there??

Wilson handled that question pretty well. Great interview.

I will never understand how a box of cereal is able to hit so well.

Wilbon.

Centeno throws to second base to allow the runner to be declared out! Is there a term for that kind of play? I don't think I've seen the Twins do it.

Nice work Mr. Rodgers!

Not sure.

 

I will run a google query with the search phrase:

 

"15 year MLB veteran with 300 career stolen bases thrown out by minor league signing"

I suspect Mr. Valencia (why someone would be named after an orange escapes me.

I've missed most of this game. 

 

Storms rolling through... reports of hail so we decide to move our outside cars to a parking ramp. 

 

Get back and we need hamburger buns so I go get them and then I get back and sit down and it turns out we need something else at the store so back I go.

 

I'm back again and sitting down and I'm hoping to see the last inning but I'm guessing we will have to go pick up the cars soon. 

Is Madson available?  I'm sure the A's would trade that guy for a box of rocks or something...Could be a nice fit for our pen.

The worst baseball stadium in MLB.

I never had a bad experience watching a game there. YMMV.

"and so when Esco fanned at the plate, and Centeno did the same, a sickly silence fell upon the patrons of the game..... For there seemed but little chance of Sano getting to the bat"
