After an insurance run and two strong innings by Casilla, we go to the ninth with the A's up 6-3.
Do we get Ziggy or do we get more runs? Maybe both? Time to finish the job and make us and the AN contingent down the right field line happy.

vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009
As an aside I've been concerned about,
If they do move to San Jose, how do we keep that chant?
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Let's go Jo-Se

I salute you with wheat grass, my good man!
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009

Woo hoo!
Nico - April 7, 2009
Chavez, get greedy
worldblee - April 7, 2009
And he does!
worldblee - April 7, 2009
Chavy doubles!
He’s been hitting everything hard. Awesome
vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009
2B for Chavy
doctorK - April 7, 2009
roomy?
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Man.
The A’s HAVE an offense. Are we shooting for 20 hits tonight? When is the last time the A’s had 20 hits. Someone research this.
VORP is too nerdy - April 7, 2009
Didn't they do that last year vs slegna...
on the night where each hit meant $1 off a future home game?
calgbear - April 7, 2009
May 1st, 2008
20 hits on the nose against the Angels.
Emmett89 - April 7, 2009
and we all remember the powerhouse those '08 A's were.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
they had moments
few and far between.
149 - April 7, 2009
< quotes your sig >
xbhaskarx - April 7, 2009
I was there. It was awesome. I got to see them put the four up there, left to get a hot dog, missed the five the Angels put up,
then watched as the stadium cleared during the fifth inning.
LoneStranger - April 8, 2009
Niiiiice
Now OCab’s the only starter without a hit
thashyt - April 7, 2009
But he's the ideal #2 hitter.
vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009
Joe Morgan just called me
he agrees
ATarHeel - April 7, 2009
only one strickout!
xbhaskarx - April 7, 2009
and wouldn't you know it
OC is on my fantasy team
LibrariAN - April 7, 2009
damn...
ATarHeel - April 7, 2009
are you in a 20 team fantasy league?
xbhaskarx - April 7, 2009
I'd go with LA County proper.
More action there.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
And hit parade continues!
Force - April 7, 2009
Whoa
That would have been a hell of a catch.
Emmett89 - April 7, 2009
Yay Eric!
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Replace your divots, Cho-nee
doctorK - April 7, 2009
I like it when nemesis fails.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
dang we are good
mattman - April 7, 2009
Uh-oh!
Time has frozen on mlb.tv!
GreenNGoldSooner - April 7, 2009
just like El Sobrante.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
You've been spared a pop out bunt
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Rajai's Fail was too epic for it to handle
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009
Epic.
FAIL!
Rated-R Superstar - April 7, 2009

doctorK - April 7, 2009
C'mon Raj
Bunting is one thing you should be able to do.
worldblee - April 7, 2009
Rajai sucks at Bunting
Zonis - April 7, 2009
Why bunt?
3 run lead, man on second, nobody out. SWING THE BAT
Helloooo 1st - April 7, 2009
Strategy is fine
Execution was lacking.
worldblee - April 7, 2009
cuz u r Raj?
149 - April 7, 2009
I’m a Raj.
Rated-R Superstar - April 7, 2009
you are Raj's inability to bunt down.
149 - April 7, 2009
it was probably Geren
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009
bob geren
xbhaskarx - April 7, 2009
Gotta pull that back
Flashfire - April 7, 2009
Yes it wasn't a strike
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Raj - bunt the ball DOWN!
calgbear - April 7, 2009
Raj needs a bit more work on the sacrifice...yuck
HRH - April 7, 2009

mattman - April 7, 2009

HRH - April 7, 2009

Rated-R Superstar - April 7, 2009

thashyt - April 7, 2009

Flashfire - April 7, 2009

Zonis - April 7, 2009

Zonis - April 7, 2009
my god.
Seriously?
So Blez will soon not be speaking with us common folk any longer?
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
He doesn't now
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
It was actually 90% comments about Salma Hayek
And only a couple hundred comments about the Giants.
VORP is too nerdy - April 7, 2009
I'm pro Salma
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Me too.
VORP is too nerdy - April 7, 2009

149 - April 7, 2009
Bless you again, sir
doctorK - April 7, 2009
She's twice blessed
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Two beauties
Trainman - April 7, 2009
Did they all come from the Blackberrys of Gints fans at the game?
vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009
Nah
Can’t post from mobile devices yet.
Flashfire - April 7, 2009
got to give'em sumptin to look forward to
149 - April 7, 2009
I wish our fans went to games
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
I wish our owner wanted us to.
vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009
Ya me too
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
I wish we had that stadium.
effing Giants. I hate them more than the Angels.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Blasphemer.
OldhamA - April 7, 2009
Let's do it
drink409 - April 7, 2009
And McCovey Chronicles sucks
And they play in a phone booth
drink409 - April 7, 2009
I wish we played in a phone booth
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
...where they are charging 7.75
for a 330ml CAN OF PABST?
alea iacta est - April 7, 2009
they sell Pabst at the phone booth?
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
they were on friday, yeah
I was pretty shocked to see how much it cost.
still, I’m ok with them trying to gouge hipsters
alea iacta est - April 7, 2009
not because they like Pabts, but because it's their version of "slumming it"
drink409 - April 7, 2009
the slums got so much soul.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Right Guard will not help you here
doctorK - April 7, 2009
you'll work harder with the bay at your back
for a Krispy Kreme today.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Yes
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
+1
And Rush SUCKS!
doctorK - April 7, 2009
I kinda liked 2112
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Rush? Rush Limbaugh?
Rated-R Superstar - April 7, 2009
Kids these days
Rush
doctorK - April 7, 2009
We play in that ghetto field in East Oakland.
Rated-R Superstar - April 7, 2009
did that really just happen?
Livermore - April 7, 2009
Davis
Needs to go to Sciosca small ball school.
Thank Yahweh, Hudler’s not in the booth, he’d be all over him.
Emmett89 - April 7, 2009
Hey, we're back to popups
worldblee - April 7, 2009
okay can we just go yard now?
Livermore - April 7, 2009
Chavvy's sittin there like...
“what happened to all the hits? Maan, why am I ALWAYS late to the party?!”
thashyt - April 7, 2009
Does anyone know what tatoo Chavez has on his arm?
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009
Am I evil?
for changing to the LA stream when we’re winning?
ATarHeel - April 7, 2009
Just don't cross streams
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
Edgar Gonzales
drink409 - April 7, 2009
No one else will tell you,

what is that graphing? runs? hits?
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009
Win-probability
doctorK - April 7, 2009
Win probability, at any given point in the game.
From fangraphs.com. Quite amazing, actually.
danmerqury - April 7, 2009
that's crazy talk
lalalalalalalal [ears covered]
Livermore - April 7, 2009

Yay Travis!
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
What's actually going on...
….my mlb.tv froze. I tried getting back on. But I’m getting the ’tween inning garbage (TwIG).
GreenNGoldSooner - April 7, 2009
Same. Since the end of the 8th.
danmerqury - April 7, 2009
I just switched to the main stream...
…it’s working.
GreenNGoldSooner - April 7, 2009
6-3 after 8.5
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Hmm, leadoff double that never advances
Where have I seen that before?

How many innings did Ziggy pitch

ATarHeel - April 7, 2009
That Jack in th Box commercial rules
Force - April 7, 2009
they stole the mini burgers from Burger King!
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009
Now THAT is a great commercial
That first girl is waaaaay hot
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
"With cows the size of schnausers but they're cattle"
That kills me every time
Force - April 7, 2009
I think it is creepy
Restaurants shouldn’t show the animal they are killing in their commercials for food.
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
Absolutely not.
They should kill the animal they’re serving in their commercials. Much more direct.
GreenNGoldSooner - April 7, 2009
actually, i think they should have to
and they should show the slaughterhouse, too.
just so people know
alea iacta est - April 7, 2009
they should make the customers kill the cows themselves
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Yeah, I like it, too. I’d like to hear a metal band cover that mini sirloin burger tune.
ATLDuck - April 7, 2009
That mini burger song is like taking a cheese grater to my ears.
danmerqury - April 7, 2009
Zonis - April 7, 2009

Focus on the batter
Helloooo 1st - April 7, 2009
We're up three.
All is still okay. For now.
vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009
Better to make the hole between first and second smaller than worry about a runner when you're up 3
Flashfire - April 7, 2009
Big first out
worldblee - April 7, 2009
Kendrick out 1-3, Chones to 3rd
vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009

But I also had CC and Halladay

micdog2001 - April 7, 2009

And Lincecum. And Peavy. And Webb.
And I sat Felix Hernandez yesterday.

they are in Oklahoma. They do need something—a prize or something.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
I just don't like how GSW has to "retire" the Thunder mascot
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
They're ours now!
But, on the other hand…
They have a lame singular name.
They have a vile owner.
They still suck (though I’m now reasonably convinced that will change in the next 3-5 years).

Don't make me write Vegetable Man as someone who transforms into a carrot.
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
DO IT.
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
Call any vegetable

Pedroia is not as annoying after an Oakland victory.
Rated-R Superstar - April 7, 2009
Never say that!
The day he is not annoying is the day his hair grows out!
thashyt - April 7, 2009
I still hate his little piggy snout though!
McFood - April 7, 2009
Pigface Johnson!
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Smells like bacon in here. MVP bacon!

oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
no seriously?
micdog2001 - April 8, 2009
M Wuertz with the W?
princemilo - April 7, 2009
Yup
vegAN ryAN - April 7, 2009
It took him two games but it was worth it
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
It coulda been Wuertz(worse).
McFood - April 7, 2009
Hey, a postgame show!
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009
another thing
MLB.TV should include, at least the damn pre game show
ATarHeel - April 7, 2009
I listen to Gameday Audio for those
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Damn, I have some history homework to get to.
I’m out, guys. Have a nice night and enjoy the win.
Rated-R Superstar - April 7, 2009
Where's the shaving cream pie for Cahill?
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
It's no win for him
but I want to see it
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
Cahill's first live post game interview?
seems a little akward but I guess he is only 22
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009
sorry, 21 years old
thanks Glen
micdog2001 - April 7, 2009

mikev - April 7, 2009
You guys wore out my Z key
But I read every single comment. Nice threads, AN!

Awesome night
Sharks win. A’s win. And I’m a happy sports fan.

me too
drink409 - April 7, 2009
I only ask that the Sharks win ever game they play from here until the end of the post season.
Is that too much to ask?
Go Sharks and A’s!
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
Bruins also lost
Flashfire - April 7, 2009
Cahill are smart
miggyk2 - April 7, 2009
Overall, I'm quite fond of Cahill....he couldn't throw a strike to save his life
but I’ll chalk this one up to nerves. We’ll see how he continues.
thashyt - April 7, 2009
He battled without his best stuff
It was sort of impressive
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
yeah, he seems to have those "intangibles" that you can't teach, unless you can....
I don’t know how that works
thashyt - April 7, 2009
He's a gamer. A gritty one too.
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
yeah I wasn't expecting much
considering he had a 5+ ERA in Spring Training, but I was impressed. And if he can keep that sinker and slider down….let’s just say i can see what the hype was for
thashyt - April 7, 2009
Im very excited about Anderson on Thursday....wooo!!
thashyt - April 7, 2009
I think Anderson will dominate the slegnA on Thursday
I may go to the game to make it a certain victory and take it to 10-0 in last 10.
Trainman - April 7, 2009
I'm excited about Eveland tomorrow.
I take the games one at a time. And give 110% for each one.
WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
Eveland was good in his last ST start
thashyt - April 7, 2009

It was against the Gnats.
doctorK - April 7, 2009
they put up 10 today!
thashyt - April 7, 2009
even though the gnats won
I’m sooo happy they lit Lincecum up.
Nothing like question marks on their “franchise”
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
I don't see any question marks.
He’s really awesome.

You’re obviously a zombie-sympathizer.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
I smell a double agent.
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
Psshhh, no.
The Zombies must die.
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
Already dead
They must be DOUBLE DEAD!!
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
You are correct.
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
It's all duplicity with these zombie double agents.
“I want your brains, but I don’t really want your brains, but I’m only saying that so I can get closer to your brains.”
It’s all lies.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Is that what you want us to think?

Silencio, Capitan de Queso.

Does cheese boy now get cottage cheese thighs?

The images man
Do you ever think of the imagery!!
:(
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
I try to not.

Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
It's Queso who's the double agent!
HE’S AN ANGELS FAN.
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
That's the same as calling someone a real life zombie,
cuz’ they gotta be braindead
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
Smash,
I need your help. One of these guys is a zombie double agent. One is apparently a Giants fan and the other likes the Angels.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
I've been framed!
Ya gotta believe me!
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
I NEED CHLOE!

BURN THE WITCH
can I get out of the box now?
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
Let out the man in the box
buried in my s—-t
Sorry, I had to reference it
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
Fine, fine. Queso’s not an Angels fan. That was a bold faced lie.
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
What’s up now tough guy!?!
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
WHY in the world are you quoting my sig?
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
It takes a strong man to admit when he's wrong, Chop.
Okay, I’ll trust you for now.
But I’m watching you, Giants fan.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
Watch him with the stink eye.
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
Oh, good.
In that case, can I have my laser rifle back?
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
Amazing with the lies, choppy.
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
They call those guys headhunters, right?
Ba-Dum-Ching!
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
I'm sure there isn't
but an early out and getting lit up by the Brewers makes for some interesting conversation
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
A lot of pitchers get lit up by the Brewers
thashyt - April 7, 2009
tru
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
I'm not trying to be against your posts
but I’m just sayin….Lincecum is really reallly good….reallly good…..in fact the G’s pitching in general is realllllly good. Though I suspect Lincecum comes back to earth a bit this year. I mean if he gets any better, it’s just scary…
thashyt - April 7, 2009
I mostly agree with you
I just want the questions to swirl in miopic Gnats land. They do have great pitching and look like they might have the good hitting to boot.
But a guy can dream tonight.
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
I think you can breathe easy
their hitting will look good against Jeff Suppan, but i suspect their offense wont be much better than last year. Too many ifs. If Sandoval can stay consistent If Rowand can rediscover some power. If Ishikawa can take a hold of the 1B job for good. If Fred Lewis develops the way he should. They have a lot of good average hitters but not much speed or power.
thashyt - April 7, 2009
Barrels or Kegs

What a difference a day makes: Nomar 2 for 5 with a run. Giambi 3 for 5 with an RBI and a run.
EastVillageA - April 7, 2009
Just another A's victory ;-)

WaddellCanseco - April 7, 2009
true.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
He's still yelling at him
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
Vince gave him some walnuts and almonds and cashews, but LB threw ’em back to him. Why? What did you think I was talking about?
walkoff baltimore chop - April 7, 2009
GET THOSE NUTS OUT OF MY FACE!
I yelled at him.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
you will have our sausages
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
He wants you to stop BITING HIS TONGUE
doctorK - April 7, 2009
he does want me to stop biting.
but he said nothing about his tongue.

Nice win, bitches
Good night.

Does anyone notice that the post box next to his right arm
looks like there’s a sheep in there.
ElQuesoCapitan - April 7, 2009
he likes sheep.
it’s a hobby for him.
Farming.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
With sheep
I hope it’s just farming
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
do they have jack in the box down there?
when I lived in Boston that used to kill me. But now, unfortunately, when I see a Dunkin Donuts commercial I kind of want to move back.
drink409 - April 7, 2009
I have Dunkin Donuts coming out of my ass,
but no Jack.
They got them a little further north, like NC, maybe?
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
I thought that was how White Castle was supposed to work
not Dunkin’
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
they now make their donuts with fried onions.
Leopold Bloom - April 7, 2009
A meal donut
nirvana
oaklandSMASH - April 7, 2009
"they now make their donuts with fried onions."
And now I only miss them for their addictive, watered down, bland, over sugared, & (did I mention) highly addictive coffee.
