Game #37: A's 3, Yankees 4
May 13, 2006 | A's @ New YorkThe losing streak continues. And Duchscherer also lands on the DL.
I didn't want to ask too much of Brad Halsey. He's a fill-in for Rich Harden for pete's sake, and he's being asked to pitch to the team that drafted -- and later traded -- him. That bottom of the first inning... well, let's get philosophical about it. It's only one inning in one game in one series among many in one season. Shrug it off.
I can only imagine that Chavy felt weak today after not eating for a few days. And I wonder how Melhuse is doing, now that Kendall's back behind the plate.
Swisher continues to get on base (for 31 games straight). Ellis' bat is alive. Street can still pitch.
I look forward to tomorrow's match-up. Danny Haren vs. the Big Unit.
(Game experience: Heard the first and last innings only on the radio.)
A's record: 17-19 | streak: L-4 | well-A-meter: 2

i would say that street's performance was very encouraging. he kept the ball low and that seems to be what matters.
i kept waiting for frank thomas to stride to the plate in the bottom of the ninth.
