Imo canha isn't worth a feeling as powerful as hate.

Rengifo isn’t in the game for the Bees tonight.

I wonder if he’s getting called up…it’s probably a stretch but maybe Rendon is going on the IL.

He’s in the clubhouse.  Just not activated.

There was a thread earlier today that covered this.  Rengifo is with the Angels, but hasn't been activated.  Seems like Rendon will only be out for a couple days. Rengifo is probably just up for insurance.

someone tell the ump to check these guys bats, there seems to be a large hole in them.

Good Heaney tonight.  2/3 against the A’s then 3/4 against the tigers later.  A 5-2 week.  Creeping towards 90 wins.

I'll take it!

The A’s luck is just beyond stupid at this point. 

[Chuck]

Damn. Matt Olson is good!

So far, it's one of those seasons for them. I've been thinking that since back in April when they won their 11th game in a row by scoring two runs in the 10th inning when the Twins committed errors on back to back plays.

I agree.

Here we go.

[jsnpritchett]

Weird play.  Someone should have gotten that.

I make an argument that they’re really not THAT good… they just have a combination of luck, timely hits and more luck. This team is not THAT good. Look at the lineup. Everyone is hitting like under .230 except for Olson.

So what that nerd tool say about the likelihood of a play being made there ?

[eligrba4ever]

Apres vous, Alphonse? Mais non. Apres vous, Gaston.

ughh

And that opened the door.

Bundy doesn't need to take notes on this inning. He lived it last night.

[fan_since79]

Come on Heaney, bear down here. Don't let this get out of hand!

[Revad]

Heaney looks good, just circumstances and outfielders that really want the ball.

They're scoring 0.38 runs/game less than the Angels, but they're allowing 1.02 runs per game less than the Angels.  And, sure, they don't hit for average (18 points lower than the Angels), but they get on base at the same pace.  They've also got a significantly better defense than the Angels.

Oakland knocking the angels back to reality real quick. 

[eligrba4ever]

Heaney stops the slop after two runs, not seven.
