In their current state, the A’s shouldn’t head for Vegas anytime soon.
Plays they think are sure things turn out to be anything but, and, anyway, there’s no betting in baseball.
If there was, the A’s would have put down their last Euro that Coco Crisp’s shot in the ninth inning was the game winner.
It came in a 4-4 tie with two men on base. Manager Bob Melvin said he thought it was “at least off the wall, but probably over the fence.’’
Crisp and his teammates to a man said they thought the wall wouldn’t contain it.
