Yes which is weird. He got an easy double while Vizquel was getting thrown out.

Based on what SNET showed it looked like they were looking at his leg or groin, tweaked something while running the bases?

Blackley can't hit the strike zone so Gomes swings at a crap pitch. Smart.

Not sure why they are not bunting in that situation.

I understand that the road team sometimes doesn't want to play for just 1 run.

But come on, it's Yan Gomes....

IMO, you have to play for just one run. The way these 2 teams swing the bat, one run is likely all it would take.

Oh and I love Rajai!

2 out of 3 hitters for the A's pretty dangerous in Jonny Gomes & Reddick.

Yeah, they really don't have absolutely to, but the next 2 hitters are lefties. So I guess they want a lefty-lefty matchup and will play those percentages. Cross your fingers...
