I liked Haren with St. Louis, I think he has about as much potential as Harden...and almost the same name too.

Sosa missed it and thought he had the homer. he did his hop and gets a ground roll double. Palmeiro up!

Palmeiro flies out to right.

Haren is a fiesty guy man. I have seen him animated tonight. he "beaned" Sosa. Then later on in the game I saw him cussing at Tejada after he apparently got pissed from a groundout. i like Haren's spirit and drive to play hard right now.

Roberts just cut off the throw to first on a sac bunt for no reason, lol...first and second, 0 out for Oakland in the top of the 8th.

redsrbetter · #21 04-07-2005, 10:38 PM

And your boy Byrnes does it!!! 3 run shot in the eighth. A's lead 4-1

browntown653 · #22 04-07-2005, 10:38 PM

Byrnes homers to dead center!

4-1 A's.

browntown653 · #23 04-07-2005, 10:40 PM

Double for Chavez, runner on second 1 out.

Single and an RBI for...I don't know, I didn't see who it was lol. 5-1 A's and Kline is finally out.

redsrbetter · #25 04-07-2005, 10:45 PM

Man I feel so sorry for Kline. He really had guys hitting him, but he also had absolutely zero back. the defense completely sucked in that inning for the Orioles.

browntown653 · #26 04-07-2005, 10:49 PM

Yeah, Kline's usually a very dependable lefty arm in the bullpen. I was really hoping the Yankees signed him in the offseason but it was a nice pickup by Baltimore. That play by Roberts was inexplicable though.

Harden is my new favorite player...I also like how he wears 24. He had a great outing today for his first start. Hope to see more from him...PS Beane is the master.

^ you mean Haren, not Harden...confusing yes...but Harden will be better than Haren...

yay, we won!

I got confused between Harden and Haren as I was watching the game at a restaurant tonight. Haren looked good along with his counterpart, Bedard.

That was a good game.

Good job by the A's taking two out of three against the O's on the road.

Team's looking good so far...especially the pen which was an Achilles' heel last season

Player of the Game goes to Haren. Pitched very well and got some retalitation for the nonsense that transpired yesterday. Nice clutch homer by Byrnes too.
