    Straw should have been hauling ass to 2B on the 1-0 pitch as soon as he knows pitcher is going home. You tell Maldy to show bunt early and take it back if it's out of the zone, especially if it's in the dirt, like it was.

    This is what the A's do. Don't get alot of hits, keep the game close, and hit homers. Ugh.

    I want Robels dumped for a bullpen arm.

    You're not wrong, don't tell anybody else.

    well ya, when we routinely leave RISP and have never had more than a two run lead that tends to be a very likely possibility.

    CC playing like complete ass is the main culprit tonight. He's a guy we should be able to depend on w RISP and he's been atrocious getting runs across. We have at least 5 runs if he connects on just one of those opportunities.

    I like that Javier is still continuing just to pump fastballs in the zone. He's not afraid. That's what the best do.

    If I'm Murphy I beat the hell out of that pitcher with soap in a sock in the clubhouse after the game.

    BRANTLEY!

    So sweet.
