Too bad we're also trying to give it back to them.

Good call, we're sloppy, sloppy, sloppy...

 

Walks, hit by pitch, passed balls, easy stolen bases, botched hit and run, and we're only in the 4th inning!

[TedWilliams101]

I think it's time for Wake to retire.

[db41]

I think it's time for Wake to retire.

 

We have no other options right now. Besides, it's not like they're hitting him all over the park-- most of his trouble is self-inflicted.

[db41]

Hall went WAY out of the strikezone for that one. Damn, left them loaded.

[db41]

Try to get this out BEFORE the play, this is a bunt situation for Scutaro. With the A's offense, one run might be enough.

[db41]

Okay, hit by pitch and a walk, bunt here, please Tito?

[msubulldogs21]

Julio Lugo just had a walk off hit to beat the Rays

[msubulldogs21]

4pm start time for me. Works out just fine except that... I'm blacked out. Can you believe that s***?

 

Hmm. I always thought Hawaii was -4 hours from central time... (me)

 

I believe it. After all, Obama grew up an "A's fan" while living in Hawaii.

[db41]

Lugo! Why can't we get free agents like that?

 

No daylight savings for us.. Spring forward, Fall back.

[italstallianion]

This is our time, we can't give up this opportunity.

[db41]

You do NOT want to face Youk with the bases loaded...

[msubulldogs21]

Michael Wuertz does, apparently

[msubulldogs21]

Two innings straight we leave the bases loaded...

[db41]

Michael Wuertz does' date=' apparently[/quote']

 

I'll take that match up any night. Didn't work out tonight.

 

I like the bunt there by Tito although it did take the bat out of Ortiz' hands. We got our two best RISP hitters up in great spots.

[db41]

100 pitches for Wake.

[msubulldogs21]

Wake has retired the last 11, although in all likelihood he's done for the night.

[db41]

I think Tito left him in to try to get him a win, but I think he was coming out with the first base runner.

 

Tie game in the late innings. Time to look ahead at the situation at hand and not bemoan what might have been.

 

Scratch out a run, play solid defense, and let the BP go to work.

[msubulldogs21]

Manny D in for the 7th

 

Are you gamecasting, db?

[db41]

That's all I got.

 

Occasionally, I get the "live look ins" and "highlights." Oh, WEEI audio as well. "Blacked out," here for some reason.

[msubulldogs21]

Good quick 1-2-3 for Delcarmen

[db41]

I used to live in the Bay Area and used to love going to the A's games when the Sox were in town. It was easy and cheap to get good tickets and then there plenty of Sox fans there.

[db41]

Ah Shealy, was wondering what they were going to do with him...

[msubulldogs21]

Will Ryan Shealy ever record a hit in his brief stint with the Red Sox? I say no.

could've used one there, that's a big out.

[db41]

McDonald with another clutch hit. Brings Papi to the plate. I'll be pissed if they send either McDonald or Nava down for that stiff Hermida.

[db41]

At least we have Youk leading off the 9th...

 

MSU is where???

[msubulldogs21]

MSU is where???

 

I'm in my room watching the game, sir

[msubulldogs21]

Extremely generous strike call on Crisp on the 2-1 pitch

[db41]

Sir???

 

I meant in what state.
