    Hey guys, I just noticed baseball players wear belts. Forgive me, I'm new.

    Interesting to see Javier up. Seems like they kept McCullers pitch count down, so if you go to game 5, you have Javier and McCullers who could both give you some innings in a bullpen day.

    Mike Minor? A's are going to run out of live arms if this goes 4 or 5.

    Parades was absolutely huge. Love that kid.

    Wonder who is going the 8th...I saw Javier warming up, but didn't know if they'd use him for just one inning.

    Some aggressive play by Dusty.. having Altuve try to bunt and then send him on a steal.

    No reason to use Javier. That would be absurd

    Javier for the 8th. This should allow him to be ready for Game 3 or 4.

    Well. like in golf after you bomb one and make that putt for birdie, sometimes you just got to end the day on a high note and leave feeling good about the day.

    This is just stupid. Baker can't manage pitchers to save his life
