Bauers just misplayed a ball off the wall in LF, then when he finally retrieved it his throw gets by Ramirez at 3rd.

What should have been a double turns into an inside the park job. ... Well, double and 2 errors, or a triple and 1 error. However they rule it.

2-1 Oakland, and both their runs due to errors.

Another run scores on another ... ummm ... oh just cue the Japanese groundskeepers ("they're still sh*****"").

And the awesome defensive catcher Roberto Perez just misplays a pop up right behind the plate and misses it.

They look like the Bad News Bears out there.

Jose needs to be sat down a couple days.

He misses a throw into 3rd. He misses an easy pop up. He strikes out twice swinging at balls in the dirt, and one of them the ball was like 3 feet in front of the plate.

I don't know where his head is but it clearly is not on baseball.

Martin with a big clutch hit to tie the game in the 9th!

He’s been our offense today.

A’s 2
Martin 2

AJ Cole?? Oh well, the inevitable, another walk off loss.

Well, Tito did not take me & Civ's advice of using Cole only in case of emergency. They brought him in for the 9th and we lose.

3-2
Bad Guys

Tito outsmarted himself again. Second and Third One out. He doesn't intentionally walk the guy and pulls the infield in. With the bases loaded, you can play the infield back a little. With the infield back, the second baseman catches the little bloop that won the game.

In fairness, Luplow slipped or he would have caught that ball.

Just the way it went, wasn't meant to be.

Our offense is so bad, the team has to play flawlessly to win - did not happen.

Again, as in Articles, TFIR is precisely on cue. The team as constituted can win only if all things go right. That's inevitably not going to happen every day.
They didn't try to field an across-the-board quality team and the team plays at the level of its talent. If the Twins hadn't taken off this mediocre Cleveland team could again have won the Central and tried to get hot and lucky in the postseason [after a late season pickup or two as usual].

Lousy bat out of the lineup today: Jason Kipnis
Lousy bats in the lineup today: Carlos Gonzalez, Carlos Santana [last 10 games 115/179/115]
offensive stars in the lineup: Look elsewhere

Hey, we actually get off to a nice start today. Guys on 1st and 2nd and Santana hits a double off the RF wall. 1-0 good guys!

TFIR or anybody else watching this game ... you see that small round wet spot in the middle of the bill of the A's pitchers cap?

Looks fishy to me.

It is a pink bill today in honor of mothers day. Makes me wonder if he didn't use something not knowing it would be so noticeable with the pink.

I mean seriously, why would there be a little round wet spot on a guys hat? Definitely not sweat or it would be all over to the scalp.
