I had 8.5 but a frustrating loss. After those back-to-back RBI singles in the top of the 1st, the teams combined to go hitless w/RISP in their last 19 at bats & w/19 LOB ... not easy to do but oh well, let's get it back tomorrow!
Was on this one too - A's had bags juiced w/0 outs B5 only needing one for the over. I told myself "I'm sure Rangers would gladly trade a DP for a run here." DP obv induced but didn't even think about the 1-2-3 variety ... guess this is one of many reasons why the A's suck so badly. I'm sure...
On the DBacks too ... boy are they putrid on offense. Bottom 5 in runs, OBP, SLG, & OPS. Hard to believe they aren't last in some of those categories - hitters look clueless.
After they scored a pair in the 4th, they couldn't get more w/2nd & 3rd no outs - GO-5 & a pair of K's. I'm on 'em too so hopefully they get their stuff together. GL w/your plays!
I had a decent bet on Creighton. I would not have made that call in that spot but it it what it is. Blue Jay's had plenty of chances to win but missed way too many shots of their own & gave up too many 2nd chance points.
I'm too busy with work, family/kids, etc. to keep track of a lot of things these days. How some of you "adults" have the time & energy to argue like 5 years olds is impressive.
