Most fans remember Kyler Murray choosing football over baseball in 2019, but what many forget is that the Athletics still quietly hold his exclusive Major League Baseball rights on the league’s restricted list. This detail prompted ESPN analyst Rex Ryan to use that as a warning to Kyler Murray, ahead of his first game against […]
The post “Go Play Baseball”: Kyler Murray Hit with Harsh Warning After Earning Vikings’ QB1 Job appeared first on EssentiallySports .
Let’s…. not talk about last night. Today is a new day! And thanks to their walk off win on Friday night the A’s have a golden chance at another series win. Over a division rival. Who is fighting to stay alive in the playoff hunt. Perfect time for another W, my friends. Taking the ball […]
The beauty of baseball is that there’s always another game tomorrow. Lose in a blowout or a heartbreaking walk-off? You can flush it away with another game tomorrow. But the opposite is also true. Win in historic fashion? Well, there’s another game tomorrow. And so after winning 19-1 last night on the back of Michael […]
West Sacramento Athletics manager Mark Kotsay knew the drill from months of exercising it. Another game was on fire, and he needed someone who could at least let it burn itself out, so he went to Carlos Cortes in the bottom of the eighth inning, the bases loaded with Mariners and four runs already in.
And Cortes did his duty Saturday, inducing Victor Robles to fly out modestly to right field to end the inning. Seattle still led, 16-1, but Cortes did the required work. Then he went out again...
The Mariners spanked, smacked, and otherwise stunted on the A’s on their way to an easy-peasy-lemon-squeezy 19-1 win, the largest margin of victory in franchise history! Obviously it would be completely unreasonable to expect the guys to score 19 runs again today, but it would be cool. Jacob Lopez will try to prevent that against […]
In a very disappointing year for the Seattle offense, the Mariners delivered the biggest margin of victory in franchise history with Saturday’s 19-1 squash of the Athletics. Weston Wilson went 5-for-6 and was one of five Mariners with at least three hits in the game. Michael Arroyo was part of that group in going 3-for-4 […]

The Mariners dominated the A’s to a 19-1 victory on Saturday night. The fun got started early as Dominic Canzone sent out a two-run home run to put the Mariners up early in the first inning. The Mariners didn’t stop there; in rare form, they continued to pour the runs on. For an offense and […]
Nasty result tonight. The A’s had their butts handed to them in this one, dropping the middle game of the series to the Seattle Mariners 19-1. Nothing went right on either side of the ball. Still have a chance at the series win tomorrow. More to come…

The A’s reinstated Shea Langeliers from the 15-day IL ahead of Saturday’s matchup against the Mariners. The All-Star catcher has been out since late July with a torn meniscus in his right knee. Infielder Darell Hernaiz was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Langeliers was feared to be lost for the year after undergoing […]
The Mariners are currently six games out of the AL West, six games out of the last Wild Card spot, and nine games from elimination. While it’s technically possible the Mariners squeeze into the playoffs if they go on a crazy run over the next 13 games, given how this team has played all year, […]
The A’s won on some fireworks last night thanks to a late extra-inning blast from Donovan Walton. That gave the A’s the first win of the weekend series against the Mariners, who are desperate for wins right now. The postseason is slipping away from them and the A’s are doing their part dragging them away […]
Regular readers know that I’ve followed one of the great Cy Young horse races in recent memory, with Cam Schlittler going great start-for-great start with the Blue Jays’ Dylan Cease. We got a little bit of separation this week, as the Athletics touched up Cease for four runs in five innings on Monday, and then […]

Mariners vs. Athletics full game highlights from 9/11/26
WEST SACRAMENTO – A season that seemed like it couldn’t get any worse for the Mariners did Friday night. A comeback that gave them the lead in the top of the 10th inning, and perhaps kept hope alive for a postseason bid, turned into a greater letdown, a 6-5 loss to the Athletics at Sutter Health Park when Donovan Walton hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the inning. George Kirby threw at least 100 pitches for the second outing in a row but found no joy in the accomplishment that surely sa...
In 1998, US Poet Laureate Billy Collins published his first paradelle in The American Scholars. The footnote to his paradelle, “A Paradelle for Susan”, reads: The paradelle is one of the more demanding French fixed forms, first appearing in the langue d’oc love poetry of the eleventh century. It is a poem of four six-line […]
Wow. It took an extra inning for it to be decided but the A’s came out on top thanks to some late-game heroics from an unexpected hero. The Athletics took the first game of the series against the Mariners, walking them off en route to a 6-5 victory. Seattle’s playoff hopes are on life support. […]
