To the bottom of the 2nd it's zip-zip. First time through their order Hammel is looking pretty sharp. Salvy leading off.
A's Triggs coming sideways to the plate and giving the R's fits.
@Crimsonorblue22 Me? What I do now?
@Crimsonorblue22 You never said anything about the other one.
Strange ears!
@Crimsonorblue22 Let me show you the whole pic. Hold on.
@Crimsonorblue22 I'm in there too.
Salvy's double was wasted with him left on 3rd. Now to the top of the 3rd and A's lead off hitter is on 1st.
A's on the board first. A's 1 - 0
Gotta go take a shower, brb.....
I'm back and it's looking like Hammel wants to make it exciting for A's fans. One out runners 1st and 2nd in the 4th. Base hit, runner scores, runners 1st and 3rd. A's 2 - 0
@Crimsonorblue22 Ned said during ST he'd alternate between LF and RF.
A's now 4 - 0 in their 5th. On the bright side, Hammel has thrown 93 pitches so this will be his last inning. If he makes it through this inning. Yep, that's it as Ned sends him to the shower and Travis Wood in from the BP.
@Crimsonorblue22 So you pick me out in the pic?
Not giving up yet, but give me another month at THIS level of play and I'll get there probably.
@Crimsonorblue22 Nope. Not that I would tell you anyway, but I will say neither of the bottom 2.

@BShark Early yet.
Yep. Hoping it's just early season doldrums.

@Crimsonorblue22 So you pick me out in the pic?
I mean clearly you are the dog. Typing must be tricky.
It is for me!
@Crimsonorblue22 Crown.
Nope
I still wanna click my heels and go back.
Sometimes the times not there either. I have a heck of a time replying. Easier to reply to someone then just reply.
Seems to be gone. I miss it!
If I scroll up I can only go back about 7 posts then I have to go up and click on the double up arrow by the number of posts. That takes me all the way back and then scroll down to what I wanted to re-read. Even then it will only go so far and then I have to hit the double down arrow. Where's my ruby slippers?
@Crimsonorblue22 That's Miller Lite. I drink Bud Light.
Losing interest in the game.
@Crimsonorblue22 Wood came from the Cubs. The other 2 questions you might want to ask Ned.
@Crimsonorblue22 Nope
On a more interesting note, in the nite sky tonite you can see Jupiter to the East and Mars to the West. Just look for the 2 brightest points in the sky.
Should've sent Mondesi. Down 8 - 0, send him and see how it goes. Hell, if he gets thrown out won't make difference in this game.
Wow, Mondesi tagged that one straight away cf over the second wall. 436 feet.
Glad that debacle is over. Final A's 8 - 3. gn
@Crimsonorblue22 No, they got 2 in the 8th and Mondesi hit the hr in the 9th.
