Tuesday 6/13 - Thursday 6/15 Mariners @ A's

[A'sDiehard]

Johnson with a leadoff double.

[A'sDiehard]

Bobby Kielty just followed with another double and it's 4-1 A's.

[Providence A's]

No but he was running pretty slowly and ackwardly; he was getting high fives in the dugout and I think it's just the same bad wheel he's been dealing with. I'd like to get far enough over .500 to give him a few days; that and we need Chavez to heat up to do that IMO.

when isn't he running slow and awkwardly? And Chavez is having some issues with that hamstring and his lower back that have been slowing...he's actually played through a lot of nagging little injuries that probably would have shelved other guys.

[Providence A's]

Bobby Kielty just followed with another double and it's 4-1 A's.

don't look now, but Kielty is batting .275...6 doubles and 6 RBIs...eh

[Providence A's]

Kotsay with the RBI single to make it 5 - 1...looks like I'll be able to go to bed early tonight, huh? 4 more school days counting tomorrow

[A'sDiehard]

Kotsay singled home Kielty. 5-1 A's.

[A'sDiehard]

I didn't know Chavez was battling some injuries; I've been so darned busy I haven't had time to catch up.

[Providence A's]

yea...and he had and still has I guess the shoulder issue, but it doesn't seem to be as bad this year...

also, there was some unofficial "report" on baseball prospectus that Harden would need TJ surgery...the A's vehemently denied the report...who knows...if he can't come back at all this year, then I don't think we'd go far in the playoffs.

[A'sDiehard]

Well I'll worry about the playoffs if and when we get there but it is a scary thought without Harden. 7-1 A's so I think you're safe to catch some sleep.

[Providence A's]

it was and I did...A's won 7 - 2.

[A'sDiehard]

Who is this Bobby Kielty guy? He just homered to make it 4-3 A's in the third.

Hopefully Loaiza has sobered up enough to get us thru six.

[A'sDiehard]

Swish just doubled home two more runs and it's 6-3 A's in the fourth.

[Providence A's]

And Loaiza gave it right back...6 - 5 going into the bottom of the 5th.

[Providence A's]

6 - 5 A's after 6.

[A'sDiehard]

Holy crap Dan Johnson is on fire!! 9-5 A's.
