We’re not out of this race by any means. We need to sweep Oakland here and then we still have 7 games left with the Orioles.

But the hot steak needs to start today, not tomorrow, not next week. This is a big series.

The A’s are mad about all the close pitches and HBP’s but Monoah has zero control tonight.

What is Manoah doing?

There will definitely be retaliation from Oakland.

If they retaliate, they're idiots. Manoah has had a habit of plunking hitters in the minors, but it's not intentional...he just develops major control issues at times.

Monoah’s mechanics look off. Seems uncomfortable and off balance with most pitches and he’s throwing it literally everywhere.

if george has to wince every time he's out there, on top of already playing with a massive brace on his knee, then what are still doing trotting him out there? im fine with shutting him down, even if we were in a playoff spot.

For some unknown reason, I switched back over to the Jays blowout when Kirk was up.

Sometimes, you do something right in life.

If he’s playing then I’d assume the trainers believe he won’t suffer further damage. He’s getting paid a lot of money if he’s a go he should be in the lineup.

A’s first base coach actually moves directly into the path of Jansen’s throw, pointing at the bag. Then ducks a little before he gets hit.

Buck: nothing you can do about that, Aldretti did everything possible to get out of the way.

Putz.
