Late game collapse cost them today
Oakland extended their losing streak today, blowing a late lead a against the Cincinnati Reds and falling 3-2.
Facing Reds starter Hunter Greene, the offense struggled for most of this game.
WOOOOOO!
Despite Hunter Greene striking out 10 Oakland A’s through his 5.0 IP, the Cincinnati Reds trailed on the road in the Coliseum entering the Top of the 9th by a score of 3-2.
The Mariners have the best record in baseball in one-run games once again...
Before the White Sox moved to their I’m sure lovely but horribly named current park, they played in Comiskey Park, built in 1910. Comiskey was the founding owner of the White Sox, and one of the founders of the American League.
Flails and baserunning fails fall short to give the unexpected gem of a pitcher his deserved run support.
Neither team was exactly Hungry Like the Wolf for this one
New York Mets pitcher Brooks Raley has been placed on the 15-day IL with left elbow inflammation, the team announced on Saturday afternoon. In corresponding moves, RHP John Curtiss has been recalled from Triple-A Syracuse.
However, he's actually winning games as a full-time rotation member early on this season for the Pirates (yes, another Bucco SP... small wonder they've improved, right?). Better yet, Velasquez has a date against the NL-worst offense (Washington) this weekend.
This was a no-hitter regardless of how you viewed it or how many pitchers it took. The Mets waited more than 50 years for their first: Johan Santana providing the entirety of the 134 tosses on a Friday night at Citi Field.
Here we go. Let’s end the losing streak
Happy Easton McGee Day!
