My old stomping grounds of Sacramento. I just might head to this series and see some dear friends.

That’s the ballgame, folks.
Come back tomorrow for another Angel loss, when they face another rookie pitcher.
Today’s starting A’s pitcher was a rookie, with 1-2 record, who easily handled the Angels .

The sliver of good news, no Patty’O postgame on the field interview

Might be our worst loss of the year

Ward makes a very good catch, even looked like he cared about his fielding being discussed of late.

He let that first run come across and assumed he would not have a chance

Angels showing their true colors – a team that won’t make the playoffs.
Not just this year, but 2026.
Why 2026? Because most of these players will be back next year.

Maybe Arte signs Bergman and Kyle Tucker

Do you think the A’s would take Schanny for Kurtz?

A’s shouldn’t take Schanuel and Neto for Kurtz.
I certainly wouldn’t

I think this was our last chance this year, playing a supposedly inferior team.

Swing the club Sally Brown. Charlie’s whinny little sister.

Well, that’s 9 K’s. Don’t feel like a comeback in the cards tonight. Hope for a better tomorrow.

I’m only watching because trout is in the lineup. Otherwise, would’ve turned it off back when kikuchi came out to pitch 4th

Looks like we’ll get our normal allotment of 10 K’s pretty easily.

9 now, I think. Is it true we’re still only in the 6th?

Yup. Gotta get some sleep.

I let out a loud sigh when I saw the 10:05PM start time for me. I really miss living on the west coast.

I work tomorrow and it’s 11:15 now. I may have to check the score in the morning.

You’ll see that we either won in a nice comeback or we re-signed Newman after the top of the 8th and he pitched the bottom half

I blame the broadcast crew saying it was a good thing the team had a day off after the sweep.

Quite frankly, get rid of all the players except for Neto and Schanuel. Perhaps keep Reid.

We’re 15 days too late for that. Lots to note here. We sweep the dodgers, suck vs Sacramento. Fullmer has a tendency to allow inherited runners.

If we got rid of everyone now… but maybe in the iffM-season

When Stephenson comes back, I’m hoping Brogdon goes.

36 pitches already for Brogdon

Bye, bye, Brogdon.

Just when he was pitching well, too. But this not so good
