Yes, I live in Stanislaus County…

Zito during today’s game…

Good for Zito! 🙂 He’s over .500! Wish I could have been there. Day games during the week rock! LOL!

Mulder hosts TWIB – So guess what all you Mark Mulder fans should watch on Saturday? That’s right, This Week in Baseball! 😉 Read the article for more details.

Shots from the valley: Horses making the cows run, the moon high above, the moon high above take two, and out to where?

Those pictures are my part of my daily commute. Those were while we were driving home. Lovely, isn’t it? Hey, it’s better than sitting on the freeway in bumper to bumper traffic. 😛

I get to update my Greg site! I love getting the scoop. Makes me feel loved. LOL!

Tonight’s game: Harden on the mound, Crosby at the plate, Zito and Ellis on the side, Scutaro pied after his walk-off homerun…

Twas a pitcher’s duel and a brilliant one at that. Too bad Harden didn’t get the win, but the A’s won on Marco Scutaro’s walk-off homerun in the bottom of the ninth with two outs. Classic. And in time for me to go to bed. LOL!

Woohoo, Mulder wins! 😀

I should be in bed, so this will be a visual post at best. 😉

Tonight’s game… Byrnes, Zito, Scutaro; Chavez at the plate; Mulder on the mound; Crosby at the plate

It was a decent game. Mulder didn’t have his best stuff, but lucky for him the fellas picked him up. Mark had one good inning and I was out of the room when he had it. Figures, eh? LOL!

Mark Mulder on his way to his major league leading 17th win…

So it’s not really almost midnight, but I wanted to have this postgame alert show for Monday. I got to watch this whole game and was quite happy with the result. Woohoo!

Tonight’s game… Hudson, Crosby, Chavez, Byrnes…

At this very moment, the A’s have just scored their 4th run. Yah!

I don’t know if I’ll get to watch the end of the game. Alas! Hopefully they can hold on to this one run lead and add a little more. 🙂

The A’s crowd cheered Miguel Tejada his first trip to the plate. I thought that was so sweet. How could anyone not cheer for Miggy? 🙂

Such a Mundane Monday…

Ever watch that movie Office Space? Yes, it was a Monday like that. Hardly anyone came into the office today. It was a little dead out there. Thank goodness we got to leave early!

We ended up going grocery shopping before coming home. I think a lot of people do grocery shopping after work. LOL!

And then while we were putting our groceries away, I noticed that the oven clock was blinking. The electricity must have gone out, I commented. About ten minutes later, the lights and the airconditioning went down. BUMMER! Everything came back on about another ten minutes later. Craziness!

Two years ago on “The Life”… Mulder, Hudson, Zito, Chavez…

One of these days, I might actually put up the screencaps from “The Life.” 😛

TV shots: Mulder in a Chevrolet commercial, Kotsay ready to move onward to the next base, Mulder and Hatteberg in the bending over and scream commericial, Byrnes coming back after almost hitting it out…

So they lost. I finally get to watch a game on tv and they lose. Isn’t that just what always happens? Blah! But hey, they had a good road trip. 🙂

Scary doggie pictures…

While I watched the game, I amused myself by taking pictures of my dogs. Doesn’t Saffy look evil crazy in the first picture? LOL!

After I figure out what to title this post, I think I will try and do some writing. The baseball story needs some work. Okay, it needs A LOT of work. LOL!
