The A's got ahead of the Yankees quick when they routed Pettitte in the first. "Swisher led a first-inning charge, nothing new for the A's, as they scored two runs off Pettite right away. Shannon Stewart reached on an error by Jeter, then Swisher smacked a double into the left-field corner to put runners on second and third. Stewart scored on a sac fly by Bobby Kielty, and Swisher came home when Mike Piazza smashed a single off the glove of Cano."
The early error by Jeter alone made my day, & things just got better & better from there. Even after the Spankees took the lead in the 7th it never really felt like we could lose.
Then fate stepped in: "for the ninth time in his four years in Oakland, Scutaro delivered a game-winning hit, hitting a three-run home run off the left-field foul pole with two outs in the ninth inning to give the A's a 5-4 win."
After Super Marco hit that dinger, no one left their seats! The celebrations went on & on! Plus the seats were great for heckling the Yankers, although they had lots of coppers guarding their precious lil egos...
The only crappy part was of the day was that Harden left the game with a tight shoulder & none of the MFY's were actually hurt...

Marco Is great, Isn't he? but of course I have gotten upset with him and I have a nickname for him. Is Scrote (short for scrotum). So I'am an ass. Its part of my charm.
That's funny, I do the same thing, only usually with the crappy Spankees names. You know you could always use the Spanish word for scortum... "Escroto!" Te he!
