Chuck Berry had some great songs.

I remember in the late 70s, the Athletics were just beyond horrible. I think I remember a sports illustrated photograph with the caption that 214 people had showed up for the game.

I think either Matt Keogh or Rick Langford went something like 2-20 one season(I know I could look it up, but I’m just going off my own memory right now) Boy they were awful, just awful, and I think they remained awful for quite a long time. A very long time,  as a matter fact they may have been pretty awful ever since.

I think Oakland won the division in 81

They had some good years with Billy Martin in that era.

Apparently the drum circle is still going strong in Oakland.

Good eye, Chance.

A double steal with Mancini and Sisco.

Hmmm.

That worked out as well as ons would think it would.

More dumb baseball, this time from the dugout.

Just a horrible call to go with the double steal.

Getting squeezed. Cashier was hot there.

I hated that two out double steal  idea.   Run expectancy with 1st and 2nd and two out is .429; 2nd and 3rd is .580.   If my math is right you’d need almost an 80% chance of success for that move to make sense.

Villar and Broxton on base doing that would make sense. Mancini and Sisco? Not so much...
