The Oakland Athletics crushed the Kansas City Royals yesterday, 13-2.
Bobby Crosby led the way with a home-run and a five RBI night, while Emil Brown and Ryan Sweeney each had three hits.
The A's are just a game behind the Angels in the AL West. Anyone surprised?

The A's surprise me almost every year, which in turn makes it not that much of a surprise any more...I like them simply because they are a small market team that is always developing talent...had they the resources to keep their players...their 90's and 00's teams could have rivaled their legendary 70's team.

I wish the Pirates would take notes. Maybe they could learn a thing or two from Billy Beane.

Maybe they should show Billy Beane a reason to come on over and do the same thing in Pirate town...I like the way the guy runs a team.

We just hired a new GM. Man, I was hoping we'd go for a Moneyball disciple.

Well, if he is new, he is going to need time to develop...he just inherited the last guys mess.
