Last night, Vince Cotroneo wisely named it “July 33rd” and sure enough the “6 runs/game in July” A’s put half a dozen runs on the board to run their July record to 16-9. Since the All-Star break, if it isn’t the final game of a series the A’s aren’t losing. 9-4 in the second half and looking like first class spoilers.
The question is: where is this all heading? I know, Sacramento, but have the A’s morphed from an awful team to one on the brink of being truly competitive, or are they just enjoying a long good month?
