Good afternoon and Happy Friday to all of you, as the Oakland teams play a double-dip tonight; both on the road, as the A’s taken on the Blue Jays at 4:00PM, and the Warriors the Clippers at 7:00PM. It’s been a week, amIright?
It’s also a bit like Groundhog Day, since at this very time last weekend, the A’s were kicking off a series with the Toronto Blue Jays; so optimistic, so full of hope, so confident in their abilities to win. I mean, Eric Sogard at shortstop and leading off; what could go wrong? Obviously the answer to that turned out to be everything; the A’s lost three horrible games last weekend as they were swept right out of their own ballpark.
