Big John owns the A's

Hey you! What are horse mackerel!
Hey, the chair are sailing! You believe that I am toad of the month!

It's gotta be Lackey.

He sounds like Kermit the Frog and Bill Gates’ love child

incredible job by Lackey

this game felt a little bit better

Lackster

Doin’ what a number 1 starter is suppose to do.

Angel Pitching, Angel Defense - get past that.

Big Ugly pitched a beauty.

Big John all the way

the bats were alright

My curse on the angels: I have been to 3 of his 5 blown saves, I was at the no-hitter for weaver, and I was there when Maicer had a season ending injury.
I am one LUCKY fan

Hey

We got the best record in the AL again.

Angel Pitching, Angel Defense - get past that.

It's not even fair for the A's to play against Lackey

Torii Hunter is also a tough dude.

I had visions

of Kotchman’s concussion when that ball hit Torii

Angels fan since '67

Ditto

In the post game interview Lackey said they were raggin on Reggie because he had to come out of the game “for way less then that”. Haha.

The future’s so bright…I gotta weaaar shaaaades.

great to see at the ballpark

the transplant Green Weenies have clearly given up on this season. i saw hardly any green uni’s in the stands tonight, and not a peep from them (not that they had anything to cheer about, really).

Fun Night

at the Big A, that’s for sure. I was surprised at how few people were in attendance; under 38,000. Indeed, the Oakland fans probably stayed home.

Lackey sure was dominant; I can only recall one 3-ball count all night, though there might have been a couple more.

The only disappointment, if you can call it that, is that Lackey decided to throw a fastball to Cust when he was down 0-2. At that point, he should be getting a steady diet of curves.

Correction

Not that I want to take points away from myself, but per my scorecard, Teixeira only reached safely once, on a 3rd inning single. He also reached via fielders’ choice in the 8th, but that doesn’t count as reaching safely (hit, walk, HBP – same things that go into OBP). A fielders’ choice is an out.

Let's keep the Office of the Border Patrol out of this.

I want my Tex.

Francisco Rodriguez: 196 career saves. 3 career Panthers, 1/3 as awesome as GMJ.

Hm...

That may be true… But I’ve kept this stance before in previous games and I’m just going to keep it rolling, so that it stays constant (and to avoid remembering wrongly in the future)

I’ve basically had in mind that: “reaching safely” means that they got on base someway somehow…
If Rev agrees with your stance, I will change it, but that’s the scorer’s decision :)

I absolutely do appreciate the note though, thanks! Glad to see people keeping tabs on me!

The Horse!

Let no joyful voice be heard! Let no man look up at the sky with hope! And let this day be cursed by we who ready to wake... the K-Rod!

hahahahaha that's amazing!!!

was that from last year when Vlad almost charged that guy?

man, Lackey is an animal! where’d you find that?

A buddy at work

sent it to me.

Yeah, it’s a picture of Lackey from the Capillo head-hunting Vladdy incident against the Mariners last year. Pretty funny. Big John seemed to take it personally when Campillo made repeated pitches for their franchise players’ head. I like that.

All the guys on the Mariners are like “Oh shit! Hold him back!” BAA!
