Branded

Tough one to swallow, as we give up the go-ahead run on a wild pitch with 2 outs in the 7th. It kills me that if we'd just won a bunch of games we lost earlier in this ridiculous season, like maybe if we hadn't had half the team on the DL, we'd be in the division race right now, talking about how we played a pretty good series against one of the league's best teams, with each of the last two games potentially going either way (after, granted, a shitty game one). Instead we're still miring.

But look at the A's. Heading into this month they were 37-42. Their record now? 53-44! I'm not saying a 16-2 stretch is something you can do on a whim just because you think it might be fun, but a good stretch can turn a Chrissie Hynde into a Terry Malloy*.
