A's are on the board, and Travis Buck with the sacrifice fly. Still looking for hit number one though. We need this to give him some confidence.

A's 1

Indians 0

Kurt has been a beast to start off this year.

Seven Game hit streak and is two for two today.

A's get out of the inning.

Joey giving up his first hit in eight batters.

The A's are in a jam here and they need to get out of it.

Runners on second and third, and they walk Travis intentionally. Bases are now loaded.

Joey Blanton walks Ryan, and the A's are now losing 2 to 1.

Joey pitches a gem and is out of the game now. Two outs top of the seventh inning, and the bases loaded.

Looking more and more like the Indians are going to take the last game of the series. Heading to the ninth.

2-1

We are heading the bottom of the ninth inning in Oakland.

Last chance for our sweep.

Down 2-1

The tieing run is at first and the winning run is at the plate.

Damn it. Fly out.

Two outs winning run still at the plate for Bobby.

A's loose the third and final game of the series to the Indians 2 to 1.

A's still take 2 of 3 games.

Was a good series for us,not bad for a team thats pick to finish last. We could have very well sweep them,and could have taken 3 of 4 from the Sox,so thou I still dont think we'll make the playoffs,I do like the future,and could see us making them next season.
