Woohoo! A’s over the Tigers, 8-4. 🙂
A lazy Saturday. Gotta love it. Pizza should be here soon…
3 August 2002
Friday: A’s fall to the Tigers, 1-3. Tejada extended his hitting streak to 22 games, but Zito ended his home game winning streak at 16. Alas!
Mychael Urban has another cool article. Read it! Urban Legends: Good, bad ball My favorite part (yeah, a Zito bit of course):
Retro uniforms: Is there anything better than the powder-blue road getups of the Mike Schmidt-era Phillies? Probably not, but the canary-yellow tops of the Catfish Hunter-era A’s run a close second. And when 6-foot-4 Oakland ace Barry Zito works in the high socks, it looks like a good 5-foot-11 of him is covered in yellow, conjuring images of Big Bird on the Subway diet. Good for ball.
And my take…
Mychael Urban: Gives fans, A’s and just baseball, interesting and funny and thoughtful insights into the game, the players, and even the fans. Plus he answers his emails from goofy fans like me! Good for ball. 😀
