He needs serious work in the offseason.

You cannot strike out in that situation, you have to make contact and put the ball in play.

At least Kelly did it right.


I can't understand how he went from being off the chain to back to the K' machine is such a sort duration. I'm starting to think he just doesn't have a good eye at the plate he swings at some really bad pitches sometimes while other times just watches strikes right down the center without ever lifting the bat off his shoulders.
 
Fister 3rd inning,

sogard called out on strikes,

crapcrisp flys to Jackson,

weeks called out on strikes,

Fister with 45 pitches and getting the inside corner tailback action fastball on lefty batters,

tie game.

Horrible plate discipline. I also can't understand why this guy doesn't learn how to bunt. It would be an excellent weapon for him and would open up holes in the infield because people would be playing in. The guy has trouble with sacbunts for crying out loud. How is that not something that he has to do over and over.
 
lights went out at the park, R U kidding me.. CA can't keep the lights on anymore.. or must be the solar flares again.

Storm troopers in the stands. LOL
 
Someone musta heard Rod Allen's rendition of Dandy Don Meredith's "Turn out the Lights, the Party's Over". Rod prol jumped the gun on that and so the A's field crew followed suit...quickly.
 
Well fuck me twice. I volunteered to work tomorrow morning so I have to be asleep by no later than 12 and now the game is going to go well past that.
 
And no chance of a Cleveland loss looks like. This better take long enough to knock out Fister ...
