Elvis where did you go?!

So we pitched around an injured Cespedes to face Norris, who is hitting 12 for his last 23.... This was good decision

You were typing yours when I was sending mine. hahaha

For the season, Norris is hitting 90 pts higher than Cespedes and like we said, he's been smoking hot for his last 6 games.

Elvis where did you go?!

He left the ball park

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

This team has gone flat...especially Elvis...

Wonder who made that decision.

I was hoping - still am actually - that EA would build on how he closed last season. Hasn't happened just yet though.

OK, here's Mr. Gentry nailing one.

Perez has really grooved several pitches already tonight. Granted, he was magnificent over his last 3 starts. But tonight looks different.

 

[darrylgann]

Good Lord, Perez! No wonder so few posters tonight, they've already sniffed this one out.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

Pitch count at 39 after 2. A's are doing it again...

Now, now. I had the game punted into the loss column the other night too and we won 6-3 (4) I think.

Keep the faith. At least for a little while anyway.

And Fielder comes up, 2 pitches and gone. Gee I wonder why we are losing to these guys?

That was Seattle, I believe. Ain't leaving yet but turned my TV off and following it on game cast.

 

[BLeslie59Rangers]

9 pitch inning...this is just too easy...

Yeah you're right. And Kazmir has throw 29 and 10 of those were to Choo.

So much for plate discipline.

And did it look like the first pitch to Fielder was a perfect one to unload on? Instead, he takes it, and then gets jammed.

 

[donaldson79]

That was Rio's ball all the way. Why didn't he call off Wilson?

 

[Justinkm83]

Everyone was talking about moving Fielder out of the 3 spot, but it's about time to start talking about putting someone else in the 2 hole.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Norris is knocking the daylights out of the ball.

Just one more way to lose a game.

I see what you mean.

If Rios catches the ball off Cespedes bat then we're up with no harm done.

 

[Nightcrawler]

This team is getting raped..
