Friday 4/14 - Sunday 4/16 Rangers @ A's

[A'sDiehard]

Other than Bradley, Swisher and Thomas, this team is sleeping. And Kendall officially sucks and is nowhere near worth his money. I'm tired of that guy and his rally killing feeble ground ball double plays.

And Zito? *ugh*

We had great seats too. Good thing nobody else in the AL West is playing well.

[Providence A's]

yea, everyone (except Texas obviously) lost, so we're still only a half game behind. The Angels come in after the Texas series, too.

[Providence A's]

Harden gets 'em 1-2-3. He struck out Michael Young looking

[Providence A's]

1 - 0 Rangers going into the bottom of the 3rd. They scored on a double play grounder...no RBI.

[Providence A's]

1 - 0 going into the bottom of the 5th....let's get some runs for Harden

[Providence A's]

Swisher hits a 2 run homer to give the A's the lead

[Providence A's]

Harden walked 2 with 2 outs in the 6th and Nevin hit a homer that barely cleared the wall...4 - 2 Rangers now

[Providence A's]

Chavez gets one back with a lead off homer in the bottom of the 6th

[Providence A's]

Thomas homers on the next pitch! 4 - 4

[Providence A's]

and Bradley goes deep!!!! 3 in a row!!! 5 - 4 A's

[Providence A's]

5 - 4 A's going into the 8th. Harden is done. 7 innings, 4 earned runs, 3 hits, 5 walks, 8 k's. If the A's hold on, he's in line for the win.

[Providence A's]

Duke struck out the 1st batter, gave up a pop up that should have been caught for a single, and then a legitimate single by Young...Kennedy in with runners on 1st and 2nd with 1 out...

[Providence A's]

and he gets the double play! bottom of the 8th with Street warming up...let's get an insurance run or two

[Providence A's]

and the losing streak is over! A's 5, Rangers 4. Harden gets the win and Street gets the save.

Swisher, Chavez, Thomas, and Bradley all hit homers...actually, all the runs scored on homers for the A's.

I can't wait to see Baseball Tonight!! Back to back to back on three pitches! How many times has that happened?
