    This is a reminder that everybody is human. Pressley has been pitching at an unbelievably high level for a long time. This had to happen sooner, or later.

    I thought 4 runs was going to be enough going in.

    Gotta shut them down and let the AAAA guys work their magic

    He still looks superhuman to me, even this outing. Pitches are hitting their spots.

    Not his best outing, but that last pitch will get on Twitter.

    As tough as this inning was for Pressley, that breaking ball K to Laureano was beautiful.

    I thought we had it too. Any other game this season and they would have held the lead.

    Get your drones ready, you'll want to capture photos as we massacre the A's staff right here and right now.

    Would have been better off not swinging, even if it were a strikeout (it was a ball to boot so would have been bases loaded with nobody out).

    Big missed opportunity. Veterans have to produce there.

    He and Pressly both coming back down to earth a bit today. Just doesn’t seem in the cards for us this afternoon.

    That was a professional double play right there.
