(deep breath) Buckle up, kids. It’s the first Friday drinking thread of the season for baseballgirl and as predicted, the wine bottle is empty, our voices are hoarse, the run totals are into the double-digits, it’s the wee hours of the morning because nothing about this game was fast, more than half the A’s lineup homered, including the trio of Matts, defensive gems were made by both Matts on the corners, yet none of it was enough to overcome the pitching, nor one excruciatingly crucial error. Despite being staked to a 6-0 lead, the A’s lost the game 13-9.
Game #9: A’s Squander 6-Run Lead, 5 HRs
