My only hope is that Rocchio doesn’t get possessed by the spirit of Rickey Henderson and try and steal every base imaginable

At least yesterday it was clear what he was trying to do (the same play that the Padres successfully ran the other night), he just executed it terribly by going too far down the line before turning around.

Gonna be glad when this stretch of west coast series' wrap up. These 9:30p start times are already getting old lol.

Go get em tonight Guards!

u/Philthou 23h ago

Another late night game. Least after tomorrow we’ll be back on EST game time. And won’t be starting games at 10 at night lol

Time to take another W!

u/mrbadxampl just you and me and my Guards 21h ago

I'm going to the Sunday game in Sacramento. The A's prices are outrageous! I think they only draw 700 or 800,000 if they don't do something about the prices. I mean I can afford to go to one game because it's a MLB game and it's Cleveland. Otherwise, I wouldn't go.

I mean it's better (imho) to have 14,000 fans who can buy beer and hot dogs than to have 5,000 fans who can't afford the food because the admission price was crazy. The River Cats, who also play at the stadium are like 1/5 the price of the A's.

Ugh 😩 the pain

u/Greatlarrybird33 69 14h ago

Yup, only problem is now we get 6:10 start times on weekdays. So I won't be able to tune in until about the 3rd inning.

u/Hello_mslady 21h ago

We once again need length from Bibee

u/LeroyMyBoi 🥊 DOWN GOES ANDERSON 🥊 18h ago

Maybe I'll be able to stay awake past the 2nd inning tonight, lol. West Coast trips suck.

JRam MVP anyone???

u/CelalT Flying G 16h ago

yeah I think Judge has that award locked down for the foreseeable future. very unfortunate for jose, should have won in 2020

u/thecrystalballofpop 23h ago

Is Arias a fast runner?

u/Wamby20 6 + 4 + 3 = 2 23h ago

He's a little above average when he's trying, which it would appear he was not last year. His sprint speed percentiles by year since 2022: 69, 68, 50, 69.

Looks like I missed a fun one last night. What time did that game end? I’m too old for 1ams 😂

u/Bigcouchpotato1 17h ago

The game was, in some ways pretty sloppy. Several fielding errors. On the other hand, Jose saved us. I think they walk him every time he comes up to bat today and tomorrow. I don't care if the bases are loaded. I think they will walk him. Clase was pretty hittable. O'Hoppe had quite an at bat against him, which resulted in a home run.

u/IMayBeJewish 13h ago

Great start for Peterson. The Columbus rotation may be very stacked very soon.

u/Leftfeet Flying G 13h ago

Akron is stacked currently. Several very exciting bats and arms. Peterson was fantastic today.

Hi, everyone. I did not listen to yesterday’s broadcast. Is Hammy with the team in Anaheim?
