Game #35: A's 3, Blue Jays 8
May 11, 2006 | A's @ Toronto
Thursdays aren't a good day for me to follow baseball. And, as it happened today, when the A's play a day game in preparation for traveling, game times are awkward for those of us left in the Bay Area. Despite a 9:37 AM scheduled game start, I couldn't really follow today's game.
Nick Swisher hits two home runs, but from the looks of it, the Blue Jays capitalized on their offense.
Kirk Saarloos gets the loss against former Athletic and current Toronto LHP Ted Lilly.
Eric Chavez has food poisoning, the reason for his missing the last couple of games. Jason Kendall, of course, still has one more game to miss as part of his suspension.
Tomorrow the A's meet the Yankees again. This time on their turf. Hope Barry Zito redeems himself from his Opening Day start against them.
(Game experience: Heard Nick Swisher's first home run on KYCY 1550; checked scores intermittently on my cell phone.)
A's record: 17-17 | streak: L-2 | well-A-meter: 2

I think the hotel the A's stayed at in Toronto hired the same chef that poisioned Kobe Bryant's bacon cheeseburger in Sacramento in 2001. I'm in Toronto for the weekend, so I'll be sure to avoid all hotel restaurants.
