I applaud your optimism.Lucroy seems like an unlikely guy to HR, and postseason games are full of surprises...make it happen
They’ll score a run in the 8th when it’s 6-0 YankeesHyperbole and hot takez aside, I will be surprised if the A's dont score against the Yankees. Severino is going to have a rough inning or at least keep throwing lots of pitches. Severino has an sOPS+ of 123 in the second half of the season.

Oh well. The reasoning was sound.I applaud your optimism.
I was thinking the same thing!Why does it sound like James Woods is in the booth?
Thank God it's not just me.I was thinking the same thing!
Any team with good hitters and a steady approach can have this guy out of the game in 5 innings or less.Hyperbole and hot takez aside, I will be surprised if the A's dont score against the Yankees.

55 pitches through three. And it won't get easier as he sees the meat of the A's order. As long as the A's can keep this close, this game is no where close to over.Sevy’s pitch count is getting up there. Maybe their bullpen will be bad tonight.
I imagine that the entirety of Aaron Boone’s brain activity is “Remember that home run I hit 15 years ago?” Then he chuckles to himself before receding into sadness as he realizes that nobody likes him.Severino is no hitting the A's! Boone is a genius!
If he had been, he wouldn't be pitching now.Why wasn't Trivino the opener?
Given the way he is throwing, that is a great question.Why wasn't Trivino the opener?
A’s wanted their World Series championship video to have a little more dramaWhy wasn't Trivino the opener?

What is an obvious Gus?Not to be an obvious Gus, but why didn’t Melvin start Trivino? Better year, solid for just about all season.
It would be awesome if nobody actually called him to tell him even though he is expecting it.Buck Showalter fired.
No cool kids here but more hot takez than you can imagine.I feel like this is the cool kids game thread.
