Not disappointed at all about how they played. With Verlander on the mound it's always gonna be a tough win. Parker looked solid too, just a few mistakes. LETS GO A's

I gave 'em a pass for Game 1 because Verlander is just so damn dominant! Would've been great to give him another troublesome inning or two. Really stoked how well Parker pitched. He & the rest of the rookie staff have shown so much maturity all season. They avoided some serious disaster on that shallow popup that Penny nabbed. Phew!
Yesterday's game was downright frustrating. While both pens had issues, it was like the A's got a taste of their own medicine.
My hopes are still up because of the resiliency the Green & Gold has shown all year, but they sure have painted themselves into a corner.
I'm gonna be screaming my head off tomorrow. I seem to recall that a couple of y'all also scooped up tix. Any of y'all tailgating or wanna meet up for a pre-game brew or two?

I'm both stoked & nervous that this game will be another nail-biter. We really needed to split in Motown. But if there's a team in the postseason that could pull off the comeback, it's our 2012 Oakland A's!

The crowd was amazing tonight. The A's were able to get back on their game plan.
Pitching? Check
Defense? Double Check (CoCo and Yo)
Long Ball? Check
The A's won't go down easily and can't wait to use my tickets for Game 5.
