[MLB] A’s v Jays: One game winning streak.
Aug 29th, 2007 by Ashley
Wheeeeeeeeeeee!
..
So after the 5-game winning streak, the A’s managed a 5-game losing streak to the underdog Devil Rays and the team they just swept a week ago – Toronto Blue Jays.
Today, the consistently inconsistent Lenny DiNardo took the mound to take on Doc Halladay, who exhausted himself with 9 IP but still failed to join the 15-win club. (Oh wait, the league leaders are at 16th win, darn.)
We had a rather enjoyable game – where Lenny DiNardo gave up only two homeruns and a single and the A’s, while GIDP a bunch, managed to outscore the Jays taking advantage of the not-so-Halladay Halladay in early inning – until Huston Street emerged from the bullpen in the top of ninth, decided that the fans should be awarded with bonus baseball for being so faithful under the Aug heat, generously gave up two homeruns to tie the game and turned the game into another A’s patented tiring and frustrating game.
Thank goodness it’s still a win.
(Street should buy magic Marco and Hannahannahan a dinner!)

So the A’s continues to their quest for .500, yet again.
