Not that an 1-7 record is something to highlight on your resume this season, but today's loss was certainly a lot better than last week's loss, so there's a tiny win for Daniel Mengden. Except it's still a loss. Oh, and also, it officially ended the season for the Oakland Athletics.
Happy Friday to you! Judging from the comment section, many of you did not have the opportunity to see tonight's game, which was unfortunate, because it was a thriller. Okay, I may have used "thriller" liberally here, but you know. There was a curveball strikeout that was neat, and Khris Davis misplaying a ball that was fun--oh and also when he struck out and lost his hat, the bat, and almost his head--and there was an exciting non-ground-rule-double that scored a run, and there was an exciting single, two Seattle home runs, and Ray mispronouncing "Wendle".
