Game #147: Hilarious homer by Billy Butler splits series

Billy Butler played the role of hero for the A's, hitting a three run shot in the ninth to save the day.

September has been a long month. But now we have this.

Pitcher's duel, kinda

Results wise, this game was a bit of a pitching duel for the early innings. For the A's, Sean Nolin "Ryan" got the start, again disappointing the radar gun but putting up decent results.
