They took 2 out of 3 in Arlington.... but the last time I remember a team from Texas coming here...

Image

They left a little upset.

A's have been stinking it up lately...

Image

But not nearly as bad as this man, who's been pulling his hair out as a result of being their manager:

Image

Everyone should keep an eye on this well-known rules-dodger...

Image

And defenitely keep that mustachioed guy away from Sosa!

Image

Is that a needle in your pocket or are you happy to see Sammy? Someone get Frank Francisco, and pull up a chair...

Image

It's time to take Texas to the cleaners, again.

Image

2 for 1 special. We eliminate your basketball team, we'll take out your baseball team FREE.

Ran out of time to do the individual pictures, wanted to get this up before gametime... I'd really like to take this series 3-0.

Gaudin continues to be our lietutenant behind Haren... he's looking better and better with each outing.

Haren with another quality start hopefully Kennedy rebounds tomorrow in the series opener.
