    They should have cheated maybe then they would hav web been somewhat competitive with the stros.

    I wonder if redsox get anywhere near the treatment the stros got

    Had the A's cut Fiers be fore the season, maybe they win one out of four this series.

    No mercy as long as they employ the rat.

    Nice to see Brandon “big dick” Bielak make an appearance to close out the sweep. Great all around series for the whole team, sans Correa.

    4th 4-0 start in franchise history (first time since '01)

    1st 4-0 start on the road in franchise history

    Astros 35 runs this series sets new franchise record for most runs 1st 4 games (32 in '04)


    The competition wasn't chopped liver either

    I like that the #1 highlight/headline on the A's team page is about a position player pitching a scoreless inning.

    Nice start.

    I hate that A's fans were booing, I mean the Bash Brothers were on so many illegal drugs it is not even funny.

    Using a position player to pitch in the first series of the season.

    Priceless.

    This series was definitely a message to the rest of the league. The Astros basically said that they're perfectly fine being the villains. Boo all you want. Bang all the trashcans and bring all of the signs you want. We'll just emasculate your favorite team on the field and smile while doing it.
