2012 AL WEST CHAMPS Oakland A's Regular Season Thread

Best baseball experience in the 9th I've ever been a part of. For some moments after the end of the 7th, I kept getting flashbacks of the '06 ALCS and the sick feeling of losing both home games. The walk-off win was absolutely fitting.

I WILL NEVER doubt this team again. I was so embarrassed to come back in this thread. I should have never given up on my squad who are the comeback kids.... they will destroy verlander tonight. It's their destiny.

Wow awesome game last night. I thought they were done for.

I should have known better than to count them out.

Yeah you should've ........known better that is. They have a s-it ton of comebacks this year man. Are you up in Oakland? . Isn't there a bridge nearby ? Just sayin'
J/k -chill

Haha nope no bridges. I'm out in Phoenix, AZ. I G
grew up in Hayward so I'm one of the A's fans that fills the spring training stadium but don't get out to the coliseum very often.

Heard on the radio Detroit had the plastic all lined up and champagne sitting on ice already in the locker room. Had to tear that s**t down. lulz

95.7 The Game
This is plastic wrap the Tigers had up in their clubhouse last night! "Like" this post if you LOVE that the A's made them rip it down and if you think they'll get to Justin Verlander tonight!




lol awesome

I was watching last night's game on Santana Row. I feel like the entire bar imploded and fell down on top of me. Unbelievable comeback...but what were we really expecting? To say that this squad has been resilient this season would be totally understating it. We are a late-inning team. We might not get to your starter the first couple times at-bat, but if the game is close and we see your bullpen in the late innings, we always seem to make noise. A LOT OF NOISE!

Man, if we can only put the Tigers away tonight...
