    I think its going to take 7 runs or more to win tonight’s game in OAK

    I’ll stay up if it doesn’t get unbearable. I think Fulmer will have a strong game and go 6 plus. If we get him some runs early, it will help.

    JV’s ERA is now lower than Scherzer’s – 4.02 JV vs 4.05 Max

    Wow, am I happy I stayed up for this gem by Fulmer! Hopefully the pen will get the out they need to close out the 8th.

    Billy Butler up with guys on 2nd and 3rd, talk about an unpleasant flashback…it worked out this time though.

      Yes, but a lot of those flashbacks included JV pitching who he owned.

    excellent start by Fulmer, it would be great to get this type of consistency out of him, Greene and Norris, as that would minimize the dependency on Pelfrey & Sanchez

    Not perfect but very good. Looking forward to see how Matt Boyd does tomorrow.
