Game #51: A's 3, Rangers 4

May 28, 2006 | A's @ Texas
At this point, I'm not surprised by losses anymore. It's still the first half of the season and I know the A's will improve. At some point we'll have reinforcements when all the guys on the DL come back.
  • I still don't have an explanation for Kendall's wearing batting gloves. The best speculation was that he's open-minded enough to try something different.
  • Adam Melhuse comes in to pinch hit and he takes over from Antonio Perez at third base (Chavy was DH). Melhuse never ceases to surprise.
  • Now can someone enlighten me: Why do we have Antonio Perez?

A's record: 23-27 | streak: L-1 | well-A-meter: 2

Melhuse really stung that ball he hit. Baseball is a game of inches, and he was just inches from driving in the tying and leading runs.

Those inches will go the A's way at some later time .. as in "it all evens out."

And I'm all cliched out. :)

Well we pay Keith Ginter $1.4M to play in Sacramento, where he is hitting 310/383/465.
