Anthony's Good Baseball

Nothing good or wonderful happened this afternoon. Anthony would have wished this game into the cornfield, out there with Bill Sommes' collie and the three-headed gopher.

Three singles, and a homer by Casper Wells, were all they got in eight innings off Trevor Cahill.

Brad Penny imploded in the fifth. With a runner on second and two out;  a small, escapable jam: hit batter, walk, walk, single. Three runs.

Down by three isn't the end of the world, unless your teammates have scored more than five times once in the last seven games. And that once was the A's meltdown in game two of this series.
