Despite the Oakland Athletics’ clinching the last place spot in the American League West and losing five out of their past six games this week, the talk of the town was the Barry Zito vs. Tim Hudson matchup on Saturday.

Oakland’s Big Three then came together on Sunday to throw out the ceremonial first pitch.
