October 8, 201312 yr QUOTE (bbilek1 @ Oct 7, 2013 -> 08:22 PM) This is the dance the A's fans do when Balfour comes in. Fans singing in unison and dancing when an athlete is announced and enters the game... If I were an A's fan attending a game and that happened, I would renounce my fandom. I would most likely get shiv'd, because that seems to be the thing to do at baseball games in California, but it would be a matter of principle. I abhore the late '80s/early '90s cheese of Major League. It belongs inside the VHS player gathering dust in your basement and nowhere else.
October 8, 201312 yr Vmart just has that look up a ice cold assassin. Balfour probably just didn't take too lightly to it. I'm not condoning Balfour I'm just saying, I could see why he went nuts on him.

October 8, 201312 yr I can't believe it, but I kind of want Detroit to win just because I hate Balfour that much.

You're entitled to that but seriously, if one asshole on the team is enough to deter you, I personally find that silly. The A's are probably a solid humble squad and I for one am happy they are punching the tigers in the mouth.
October 8, 201312 yr QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 11:52 AM) On second thought, V-Mart was somewhat mean mugging him. V-Mart kept starring at him the whole time. He didn't even take a look to see where he fouled the ball off to. Remember when Orlando Cabrera kicked dirt towards Balfour in the 2008 ALDS and that almost started a fight?
October 8, 201312 yr Author QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 05:35 PM) Peralta says yaaaay PEDs I'd guess that his teammates forgive him right about now.
October 8, 201312 yr HR being reviewed. The ball was going over but the ball was going to be out anyways. Hm.
October 8, 201312 yr Author QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 06:08 PM) Covelli Crisp is a bad man Go get him Rick. I don't care what it takes.
October 8, 201312 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 9, 2013 -> 12:46 AM) Reddick is almost as unclutch as swisher .129 with the bases loaded I believe the announcers said. Really Reddick? Edited October 8, 201312 yr by Buehrle>Wood
October 8, 201312 yr Bases loaded no outs and the As get out of it. The White Sox hijacked their offense. Or Scherzer prayed to El Duque.
October 9, 201312 yr Author QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 06:48 PM) .129 with the bases loaded I believe the announcers said. Really Reddick? 4 for 31. I don't think I have ever seen a player with such a low average before.
October 9, 201312 yr Oakland will now be 1-11 in playoff games with a chance to clinch since the divisional series format started. Whereas DET is 4-0 under Leyland when facing elimination.

Whereas DET is 4-0 under Leyland when facing elimination. They have twice lost the World Series. How are they undefeated when facing elimination? And they lost the 2011 ALCS.
October 9, 201312 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 8, 2013 -> 07:02 PM) 4 for 31. I don't think I have ever seen a player with such a low average before. You can see why most of A hitters have low averages with the bases juiced. They don't know how to make contact.
