Now *that's* baseball

Oakland over Boston 5-4 in 12 innings. Tied up in the 9th, won on a squeeze bunt in the bottom of the 12th. Back and forth all game, two great pitchers starting the game, every at bat counting. Fun fun fun!

There have been some great ist round games. The Marlins games, the first Oakland game, the Twins over the Yankees. Good stuff!

Yup...And as long as neither Yanks or Braves make the WS, I'll be happy. :D

Couldn't have said it better myself. Although my passion for hating the two teams has diminished since the Mets have sucked big time over the last two season.

Still, now that you mention it. I hope they both lose.

My high school baseball coach would have been proud. He was a HUGE advocate of bunting. I don't care where you were in the lineup, if we needed a run and there was a runner on 3rd, he'd bunt them home. ESPECIALLY with the 3rd baseman playing behind the bag.

We were tricky like that. :evil:

Lol..funny you should mention that...our uniforms were red and white...guess what our nickname was. =P

Btw, I'd just like to add that I hope the Cubs knock off the Braves, then they get crushed by their next enemy. A cubs-less, braves-less and yankees-less World Series would be the best Xmas gift I could ever receive.

everyone back oakland with me :)
