Great comeback win tonight. Love the home field magic!

Bullpen was great. Allen looked good, despite the 2 hits. Hung a breaking ball on a 1-2 count, otherwise we probably see a 1-2-3 inning. Regardless, was 95 on the heater, and had good break to the curve.

I kinda thought that final pitch was going out...Naquin hauled it in deep. Felt like a CoCo Cordero save.

Have we had a lot of rain outs? A quick scan of the standings today...we have played 100 games. 58-42. Nobody else is at 100. Maybe a team or two at 101-102 and most teams at 103 or more.

Not watching...just monitoring from phone. Rough 1st inning....seems like must have settled in a bit.

Damn, was hoping As would leave that guy in a bit longer. Tribe was absolutely tattooing him.

That was a weird start. He got smacked around by a few hitters, but also struck out the side, and made some guys look silly with swings and misses. Very bizzare.

And of course gave up an obligatory solo home run. Only 2 guys in the league have allowed more. But...it'll happen when you throw strikes. Solo homers won't kill you as a starter.

Ramirez fails to bring in Napoli who was on third with one out.....Chiz in PH... And fouls out :(

The A's have a nice collection of sucky ex-tribe pitchers. Axford is warming in the bullpen.
