Series Thread: Home against Oakland, May 8-10

[Anointed One]

Ackley's been playing some great defense out there in LF this year... Another great catch by Ackley....Furbush again, cleans up Farq's mess...

 

[Anointed One]

Hmmm... I wonder what Zunino is going to do hear with bases loaded?

 

[WizardHawk]

Chance to really break one open for the first time this year and Zunino does what zunino does.

 

[Itsmytime]

And Beimel shoots the arrow!

 

[WizardHawk]

Isn't that the first game win by 5 or more runs this season?

Isn't that the first game win by 5 or more runs this season?

I think it might be the first win of more than 3

I am just happy to know what the other teams fans feel like watching their teams get gifts from opponents. It is a nice feeling. Thanks Oakland.

I'm starting to think they should think outside of the box and move Zunino to the 3 hole, basically guarantees Cruz has a runner on everytime he comes up because they are going to pitch around Cano at 2.

If Felix is locked on and has a lot of movement on his pitches, expect at least 1 passed ball today.

 

[Podunkparte]

Let's hope the A's are still students of the Yunieski Betancourt school of fielding today

Lloyd McClendon says Wednesday starter "could possibly be" someone other than Roenis Elias. Matchup thing -- Padres hit lefties well.

 

[NWinAZ]

change: miller in for taylor

McClendon said they're awaiting results of x-rays on Chris Taylor's hand. He's not in the lineup today.

 

[Anointed One]

All right King Felix... Let's give all the Mariner Mother's a very Happy Mother's Day!

 

[Msfann]

Congrats to Felix on 2000 strikeouts!

 

[NWinAZ]

WeAks!!!!!!

 

[NWinAZ]

Cano with the pickup of WeAks. Good outs win games.

 

[NWinAZ]

Weird seeing Felix 6-0 in early May. Usually he gets burned 3 or 4 times by now and misses out on wins.

 

[WizardHawk]

Yeah, for once he's had enough run support to not have to be dead on perfect every game. I guess the law of averages was bound to catch up to him eventually.
