Did Karros just say that Marco Scutaro is the A's MVP?

 

Yes. Yes he did.

I want to see this series, more than any other, go 5 games.

 

I want to see this series be over in 3 games.

[UMFan83]

Well this game is playing a lot like the last one.

 

 

Isn't it funny that the Twins could be one loss from elimination before the Mets and Dodgers even play their first game?

[CaliforniaRaisin]

My bad, guys.

 

I came back from lunch to see those last two ABs.

 

Loiza is garbage.

Morneau killed that one

[Brian]

Loiza is garbage.

 

He was solid for the first 5 innings

Yeah, it seemed like it, but I'm still not a fan. Bad signing, not one of Billy Beane's finer moments.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Woa, that's a funky motion and delivery.

What ESPN baseball broadcast would be complete without a wonderful conversation about Derek Jeter and the New York Yankees?

especially considering the team they are calling has a player with better numbers in almost every category.

[Brian]

NICE!

[treebird]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[CoolHandLuke]

:shock:

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Woohoo, thank you, Torii!

[Brian]

Chavez looks like CPatt out there.

[treebird]

is there a reason chavez thinks it's funny to swing at head high fastballs?

[treebird]

[Transmogrified Tiger]

Sportscenter was showing Hunter's misplay on the inside the park homerun. They showed the last time an A's player hit one, it was Ray Durham two years ago. They aired a replay of that one too, Hunter misplayed the ball and it scooted all the way to the CF fence. The other two outfielders are scrambling to pick it up. One of them does and throws an 8 hopper to the shortstop. I knew who it was without a second thought. I just laughed, and then I got sad.

I saw that too. I saw the 11 before he threw it though. It was a reminder. Some things just don't change.
