Bad Fiers tonight

He's got a great era since the no hitter but that's a product of pitching to contact in a cavernous stadium with a great infield against offenses not as good as Houston. I don't trust him at all. It's be fine if he were the third starter but as the "ace"...

I know the a's aren't as good as the Astros but this season series is an impossibly thorough rear end kicking so far, Oakland has barely had a competitive moment in this matchup so far

Eh there've been four or five one run games, and one two run game that ended in the 12th

Watching you sleep.

Butt first, let's
check the feeds.

This Yankees/Twins game has been on for an hour and isn't out of the second inning. And the score is 2-1.

Its physically painful.

Outscoring the a's 55-21, including tonight

So I'm being a little hyperbolic, there have been close games, but overall it's an rear end whooping

If you were an A’s batter tonight, why the hell would you not step out of the box a couple times? Miley is mowing them down and poor Fiers literally hasn’t had a single break over 3 minutes.

Ump has to grant time, which I don't think he's likely to do when the pitcher is working quickly

God drat that ball was vaporized.

Would have been nice if we could have scored more than a single run with all those baserunners.

Is there a variant of The Maddux where the pitcher spends less than 30 minutes total on the mound? :eyepop:

What should have been a 4 pitch walk with bases loaded is now 3-2 thanks in part to a terrible umpire.

When he’s bad, he’s really really bad. And I don’t know of many other players who let their terrible at bats affect them in the field defensively as well.
