2 - 1 A's in the 2nd. Thomas and Payton knocked in a run.

[Providence A's]

6 - 1 A's in the 3rd...Swisher just hit a grand slam.

[Providence A's]

6 - 3 A's after 3 innings.

[Providence A's]

6 - 5 A's after 4 innings...Haren made an error, 4 runs earned...not very sharp tonight...let's get some more runs

[Providence A's]

Thomas hits his 33rd homer. He's 3 for 3 tonight with 2 runs and 3 RBIs (92 for the season). 481 homers and 1557 career RBIs.

8 - 5 A's in the 6th.

[A'sDiehard]

The Big Hurt absolutely crushed that ball.

8-5 A's bottom six.

[Providence A's]

I actually missed the homer because I had to restart my browser due to installing something to watch a video...I'll see it tomorrow.

[A'sDiehard]

Haren is all over the friggin place tonight. Just get us through the sixth.

Here's a hypothetical:

Let's say Big Hurt hits #500 with the A's next season, and eventually one day is elected into the Hall. And for the sake of hyoptheticals, he ends his career with Oakland in whatever year.

Do you think he dawns the A's cap, or goes with Chicago even though the terms there ended pretty sour.

Tough to say but I think he goes with Chicago. JMO.

Mcha leaves Haren in there and he gives up a leadoff HR in the seventh.

Kennedy coming in out of the pen.

I believe the HoF chooses and 16 seasons or whatever with the White Sox will outweigh 2 - 3 with the A's

you seem surprised...that surprises me

only 4 of the 6 runs were earned, but he gave up 10 hits (2 homers), no walks, and 2 k's.
