  2. Positives from today’s baseball:

    Gavin Williams joined the big boys today, with a final line of 5.2IP, 4H, 4R, 3BB, and 4K. The kid showed a great ability to bounce back, after a 4 run third inning the 4th and 5th innings combined only took 12 pitches! Not the perfect game we were all hoping for, but the kid showed tenacity, welcome to the Show, Gavin!

    💨 and 🐐 did their things today. Nayls goes 4/4 with a solo homer and 2 RBI, and José goes 3/4, with a triple. The bats at the were swinging pretty well, with 7 runs coming off of 13 hits, a walk, a HBP and two errors. Plus, slap hitting shit goblin baseball making its appearance in the 8th inning once again!

    BO NAYLOR GOT HIS FIRST BIG LEAGUE HIT AND HE HAS THE EXACT SAME CLUTCH DNA AS JOSH. INCREDIBLE.

    CBus had a double header today, which featured Jhonskey Noel going 3/6 on the day with 2 RBI and a homer. Rocchio in game one also hit a homer, a single, and stole a base. Game two had Karinchaos to close the game and he went
    1IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, and 3K, so status quo chaos for the madman.

  3. Camera man was extra sassy tonight.

    Did Noda get screwed on that clock strike 3?

  5. idk why our games against the As have to be like this but we take those lol

  7. 0.5 GB, with the Twins and Red Sox tied late.
    Today, the Naylor statue budget doubled in size.

  14. These have been some good games all season with Oakland. They grind it out and are tougher than a lot of more talented teams.

  16. That was a fun one to tune into late! Over slept on a nap and got in at the top 7. Happy they pulled it out

  18. Gavin Williams first major league start: 5.2 IP, 4 ER

    Corey Kluber first major league start: 4.1 IP, 6 ER

    In conclusion: Gavin Williams will win at least 3 Cy Youngs

  19. I think Boseph has really turned around attitudes in the dugout. Team is happy he’s here and I’m hoping that getting his first got today will finally relieve him of some stress

  20. Does anyone have a link yo a video of Bo’s first hit? I missed it and really want to see it.

  23. Was at the ballpark. That Bo AB for his first hit was absolutely electric. The crowd was motivating Bo after he went down in the count with LETS GO BO! And then he fouls of some pitches gets a full count and gets it done! And then Josh’s reaction 🥹

  25. I’d like to put into the universe Josh Naylor and Steven Kwan extensions.

  27. Overall a good outing from Gavin despite getting lit up a little bit there in the 3rd. That catch from Brennan was huge. Awesome to see Bo’s first hit in a big moment

    Go guards

  28. Bo did the thing. Huge for his confidence. Let’s see if he can parlay that into tomorrow.

    Amed Rosario can be sent to Guangdong Tigers tomorrow at this point. How can one SS mess up this many routine plays in a season and keep his job?
