Seattle Mariners @ Oakland A's Sep 20-22

And how many flippen times are we gonna' see France ground in to a double play? holy hell
Not to mention, possibly the WORST OUTFIELDER IN THE HISTORY OF THIS TEAM booting another ball out there. Cost them a run, and they lost by.......a run.
But Servais just leaves Kelenic, WHO CAN ACTUALLY PLAY DEFENSE, sitting on the bench. It's not like Winker is hitting for sh either? I don't need loyalty, I need to RIGHT PLAYERS out there.

JK's first AB back in the show, walks to load the bases.

 

[sutz]

And Winker does what he does best, walk in a run.

Hey, they figured out what the bats are for.

 

[DJrmb]

So Winker walking isn't completely worthless.....

With him not giving up runs in the outfield he's actually got a chance of being a net positive this game

 

[sutz]

And shit all, Julio coming out of game. Looks like his back is acting up.

The baseball gawds hate our team. F*** the baseball gawds!

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Nice 3 spot to start. Good start. Sounds like it's just back spasms. Could have been a lot worse I guess. But I was like FFS, really?
But he contributed, smart to get him out of there. Let's get that W. Couldn't care less what the score is, just WIN

 

[sutz]

Nice early lead, but I'd like it a lot more if they would start adding on inning by inning.

 

[Ruminator]

Very bizarre. Them constantly hitting into grass and Ms constantly hitting into gloves is still occurring. Can someone please deep-six the baseball gods who've obviously been screwing around with the Ms lately?

 

[Ruminator]

Time for a brawl!

 

[SoulfishHawk]

no doubt. Gonna' get that W today. I refuse to get angry until and IF we lose. This is baseball, only the 3rd inning. Plenty of ball left.

 

[Shanegotyou11]

Choking.

 

[Shanegotyou11]

And i hate to feel this way but unfortunately i do lately. The pressure is so much for them to break this huge drought.

 

[Chapow]

This can't be happening...

Somebody please wake me up and make this nightmare end...

Hold me...

 

[SoulfishHawk]

To say they are struggling would be a massive understatement. Winning is a hell of a lot better than hoping other teams lose.
Shoot, start a game up 3 zip, and give up 5 unanswered? And from Kirby? You know it's bad when THAT gets rocked. But, only the top of the 4th. A LOT of ball left today.

Is there something in the SF air or water that screws Seattle teams over? Are their meals being salted with medication? Our best pitchers fall apart as soon as they get there!

Gawd I HATE this! At least they got Winker out of LF!

 

[SoulfishHawk]

One run game. This sh isn't close to being over.
Side note: While the timing sucks, Kirby has been phenomenal this year. This is the FIRST TIME all season he gave up more than 1 walk in a game. Damn

 

[Sports Hernia]

How did the replay ump miss that call at first with Haniger. Clearly safe as 1st baseman clearly came off the bag. Baseball umping is at NFL level officiating. Why have replay umps if they are missing obvious calls?

 

[sutz]

Kind of weird how we can only score runs in one inning per game.

 

[sutz]

France on 3d with no outs. Can we please bring him home.
