It’s all about the pitchers hitting, man. I bet an A’s reliever gets an AB in this brief two game visit to balmy San Diego.
Now extended to include the South Side Series – ptbnl
"Kraut will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no kraut."
Paul Blackburn looks like a guy who could hit. WHO SAYS NO?
Can he throw strikes?
Reply hazy, try again.
One good looking swing (and miss) during his first AB.
The long rest has not improved Khris’s arm.
*turns on game*
*Piscotty GIDP*
quick check. negative 0.2 WAR.
lol
Thanks, and go As.
such a great story, though
plays close to home.
still sucks.
Thanks, and go As.
But we were so fortunate to get him.
BR has both Piscotty and Munoz at -0.5 WAR, but one of them is a 23 year old SS
Thanks, and go As.
Has he gotten to 100 pitches yet?
that would mean at least a dozen strikes, maybe 2
lucroy extends blackburns night
for fucks sake
New low?
Ugh, FK Petco.
wait, what?
I left the TV off for that one. You’re welcome.
Thanks, and go As.
One of the better road game endings I’ve had the pleasure of in the last few years, A’s baseball or Cal football. Actually, if Cal would ever win one of them, I’d take that however it happens.
lol
many names, such as Prick, Goddamn Meathead, Gutless, Bastard, and others I can’t recall.
California and DC. Politicians and lawyers. Admit it, you knew it was true.

Except when Frankie Fastball is pitching.
Good news: two wins and still above. 500
Bad news: zero pitcher hits or reliever ABs
I am morbidly enjoying this new contest every series: will we or wont we?
Wooooo Jacob Evans!!!
Barreto bomb!
Does it still count as a DrK-ing if the appropriate post isn’t up yet?
Nope, just playing it where it lies.
Or a belated reaction to Wednesday’s game.
Or a prescient reaction to today’s game.
There’s a lifespan to everybody and everything, and I prefer Death With Dignity.
Earl Weaver would love Franklin Barreto.
I’m still annoyed at that bullshit they did earlier this year where they called up Barreto without giving him a single at bat for a couple of weeks. This time, it looks like there’s a mandate to get him at bats against both righties and lefties so it’s good to see him have a game like this.
Driving around I liked the radio guy from Nashville filling in for Vince. Even better, Ken really seemed to like him too. Good interplay.
franklin’s mad dash
Catch the fking ball

It was a good day to have one of baseball’s worst teams as the opponent.
Treinen with the 8-out save.
Man, his stuff was filthy today. It looked like he just didn’t care if they made errors out there, he was just going to get the next guy. He’s a treat to watch.
Save us, Edwin Jackson.
How the fuck is this team over .500 with a rotation that’s been half AAA, half old-timers game.
Dingers.
this was a bad start
Hey we forced a ninth inning pitching change!
Are we going to be able to add “Detroit: Suck City” or we going with a new thread?
I’ll check the FK rules and get back to you.
