So, the A’s are 5-0 during our suite games. That’s all I’m going to say about that. 😉

A great game! I *think* this is the first game we’ve seen Harden pitch live. And wow! He was FANTASTIC! Too bad his pitch count was so high. I think that 27-pitch first inning didn’t help. 😛

And Nick Swisher was back in the lineup! It was wonderful to have him back, but I know he must have been sad. I couldn’t believe they interviewed him after the game. We watched it on tv, but the sound wasn’t up. I was glad, because he looked a bit teary eyed and I know I would have cried a little if I could hear what he said. I’m such a sucker. During his interview, they showed this ridiculous stat that I can’t remember. Something about how wins and losses when he’s in the game and when he’s not. Let’s just say that he needs to be in the game as much as possible!

Huston Street. He’s so automatic it’s SCARY. In a good way. How does that kid do it?

So so so happy that the A’s won! 😀

Melhuse stretching… Harden warming up before the game… Street and Kennedy getting ready to join the game… end of the game hi-5s

Oh, and very happy to see the Cardinals won! In the bottom of the ninth. Against the Giants. Delicious! 😆
