I watched most of the game on tv. We had both feeds and watched the A’s broadcast, of course! After the Cards/Royals game. (Mulder won his game, btw.)

Bobby Crosby is going to play with the Stockton Ports this weekend. I wanna go to a game!!! But I probably won’t. Bah!

Yes, a nice and solid victory. And the journeyman pitcher gets his first win for the A’s! Woohoo!!!

I’ve got another new top banner, this time featuring Cardinals pitcher Mark Mulder. THANK YOU WAH!!! If that’s what happens when you’re bored, well, I’ll take it. 😉 Muchas gracias!

And since I’m on banner number four for Moonlit Jazz, I thought I’d store the ones before in the photo gallery. You can see all banners here. Enjoy!

I missed Mr. George Eads on Craig Ferguson’s show last night. Alas! But my dear dear friend in Canada managed to record a bit for me and now I have it. She’s so sweet. Marni, love ya! 😀 (Now she just needs to get her website up so that I can tell you all to visit her.)

Oh, but I did catch the Teammates ep with Byrnes and Zito. They are a total HOOT!!! Crazy boys. Zito is cute on tv. 😛

Boston 4, Oakland 6
at McAfee Coliseum

Winning pitcher – Keiichi Yabu (3-0)

SV – Octavio Dotel (7)

Boston Runs: 4, Hits: 12, Errors 0
Oakland Runs: 6, Hits: 9, Errors 2

Oakland Record:(15-23)

FINALLY!!! Dotel made it a bit too exciting at the end (can’t he just have a 1-2-3 inning?), but the A’s won. A fun game to watch, even though I didn’t know what to think when it was still tied. Good for Watson! 🙂

I do love my A’s, I do. But right now, they’re making me so very very sad. 🙁 And perhaps slightly angry. Definitely frustrated. I know they’ll turn it around, but will the effort come too little too late? (more…)

First off: Harden placed on the 15 day DL – NO!!!! Why do I have this utterly sad and sinking feeling about my A’s right now? Why?!

Second: New top banner! You should be seeing a George Eads as Nick Stokes banner made by Wah. If you don’t see it, right click on the image, choose “View Background Image,” then refresh the page that comes up. Come back and ta-da!

THANK YOU WAH!!!

The images come from the screencaps I did from the 3rd season CSI episode “Let the Seller Beware.”
