seen for an A's Wednesday night game not against the Giants, Yankees, or Red Sox. We had lots of fun. I thought Jaso's hit in the second was a sure-thing Grand Slam... good thing Cespedes followed up that deep fly out with the first of his two HR's tonight.

We happened to leave after the 7th inning, it was getting a tad late for the 5 and 2 1/2 year olds... and the A's were ahead 9-2. What a blessing in disguise. If I would have seen Jim Johnson give up four straight hits AGAIN, it would not have been pretty.
