Loaiza!
Last night Esteban Loaiza pitched a complete game shutout! That was the sort of thing the A's were looking for when they got him. Wow. So the A's get 2 of 3 in Toronto and get outa town. Monday they came back from an 8-0 deficit to win 12-10. I couldn't believe when I got home monday night, it was 8-7 Jays, and the starter, Haren was still in there. Even the game they lost, they played well. Aug 24th... is it getting late in the season? It is the early part of the end of the season I guess. A long way to go, but a 5 game lead and a season high 17 games over .500 seems pretty good.
