148-150: From SEA to shining sea 41

The A’s actually play some important games this week…important to the Mariners, Rays, Jays, Mets and Braves. The Mariners’ remaining schedule is ridiculously soft. They ought to be able to cruise into the #1 AL Wild Card spot and host either the Jays or Rays, but if anybody can screw this up it might be ...

Deep in the Heart of Awful, 142-147 115

Ads on the pitchers mound are bad enough. Proselytizing is worse. He Gets Us to hate everyone different than us. Fucking this Taliban state with a splintery stick. "Kraut will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no kraut."

138-141 White and Yellow Shoes. Not seeing Socks 31

JP is not Towering over the southsiders Dylan Cease is warming up in the bullpen in the 2nd, the disrespect.

Games 136 and 137: Hotlanta, bringing the heat 68

The defending World Series Champions come to Oakland for a quickie one-night stand. Atlanta is only one game behind the Mets for the NL East lead; the winner there almost certainly gets the second bye in the National League. The Mets get their shot at the A’s on September 23-25. Tonight at 6:40: Irvin vs. ...

Ain’t Goin Out Like That, BWI expansion pack, 130-2+133-5 35

Smokin that smelly, Northern Cali Gonna put a slug in Captain O’Malley A’s visit Nats field for the first time ever, there’s gotta be a thread. A’s players, almost all of whom are recently quite familiar with bus rides, traipse up to Camden Yards. "Kraut will get you through times of no money better than ...

Well, the Yankees are here. 20th anniversary of the 20 game win streak party is sunday

Games 123-125: The One with the Offensive Offenses 110

I don’t expect the handful of fans who will show up at the next three games at the Coliseum will see many runs scored. The Marlins are #27 in team OPS (.665) with the A’s #29 (.627). The Marlins come to town with a 9-21 record since the All-Star Break and this impressive streak of ...

Again with Seattle 120-122 72

Bsssit was being gritty in Philadelphia so I and I assume all of you were paying more attention to that. Anyway three games with seattle. They are in a playoff position I think. I don’t think they would be if it weren’t 2022 or 2020. Ivin, Kaprielian, a “sears” Gonzalez, Gilbert, and castillo I think ...

Games 116-119, new manager and all 87

The new manager isn’t wearing Green and Gold, he’ll be in the Rangers’ red, white and blue after the firing of Chris Woodward today. When the team spends $500M on the middle infield and is 23 games out in mid-August, somebody’s gonna go. I don't know what you can say about Chris Woodward's tenure as ...

113-115 The Balk stops here 29

In progress Oller v garcia. I just got home and won’t be looking up the probables because I doubt I know them anyway. or it will make a difference in my listening habits. I did turn on the TV for an obvious balk that was called on garcia netting the A’s second run of the ...
