I do not think I have ever been to such an A’s game!
A’s blast Buehrle, White Sox

The A’s kicked some serious butt! Four home runs in the 3rd inning (a very LONG inning, I might add 😛 ) by Scott Hatteberg, Terrence Long, Carlos Peña and Frank Menechino. Mike Fyhrie, stepping in again for Mark Mulder, got the win.

It was an early day for us, since I wanted to get my Tim Hudson Bobblehead. LOL! We stood in line for an hour at the gates and got our bobbleheads. (I’ll have to take a picture of it later.) Then we had time to check out our seats (under the overhang so that *someone* doesn’t get sunburned), watch the end of the no hitter from Boston Red Sox’s Derek Lowe (had to look that one up), and watch the end of the Magic/Hornets game (Hornets won in OT). Sporty, aren’t we just? LOL!

We had good seats on the third base infield side. I could see the players hanging out on the side. Too bad I wasn’t closer! 😉 The day started out cloudy, the sun shone for most of the game. I wore my groovy new A’s jacket anyway and I was okay. Plus I had shorts on!

Good game. Even better for the win.

Doy, the score! 16-1
