Game #33: A's 6, Blue Jays 5
May 9, 2006 | A's @ Toronto
• My man Danny Haren gets a win. Hooray! Of course the rest of the A's made him -- and me! -- sweat bullets for it. Haren hasn't updated his blog in a week. They need to get some ghostwriters on the case.
• Kiko Calero is also a big hero. As for Huston Street, I worry. I have a worst-case scenario in my head that I'll keep to myself for now.
• My other man, Bobby Crosby, hits home run number five. I'm a little down on Crosby this year, compared to previous years. Looking like Brad Pitt does have a downside after all. I can't stand the whole Brad/Jen/Angelina story, anything that reminds me of it, and anyone who looks like any of them. And really, can anyone look like either of those women?
• Didn't I call Adam Melhuse our go-to guy back in Game 13? I sorta did. Wouldn't it be cool if he got more playing time? Let's see... Melhuse appeared in 10 games and has one home run. Kendall-- oops! I said I wouldn't rag on Kendall.
• Melhuse started because Jason Kendall is serving his four-game suspension for The Brawl. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Kendall believes his suspension wouldn't be reduced after talking to different people, including Billy Beane. I can only imagine Beane saying something to the effect of, Suck it up, Jason. You don't go charging the mound during a game and expect there to be no consequences. And stop comparing your punishment with Lackey's. Someday, when everyone knows you're a genius, you can throw all the temper tantrums you want. Until then, let's have some decorum when you're out on the field.
• Off-tangent: Dr. Dan sent me the link to a Simpsons clip on You Tube featuring the 1974 Oakland A's. Click here to see it for yourself.
(Game experience: Intermittent MLB Gameday checks, KYCY 1550 AM for last couple of innings. I missed every inning where major scoring took place.)
A's record: 17-15 | streak: W-1 | well-A-meter: 3

Shouldn't the comments regarding Brad/Angelina/Jennifer have been in pink text? Also, you didn't include Vince Vaughn in the romantic web. I guess you don't have a problem with Vince. ;-P
You're right. :-)
