You guys need to get the Tigers off your backs, or out of your tanks, or something. Six straight post-season losses by the A's now, all to the Tigers (going back to their sweep of the 2006 ALCS).
On a lighter note, I didn't think this was a big deal, did you? But Josh Reddick called it "immature and not very professional . . . You don't do that on the field. Save it for the dugout." [That's Tigers RP Al Alburquerque (What a name! Is his first name actually Albert?

) kissing the ball before tossing it to first for the final A's out of the game.]
EDIT: Apologies; I just noticed that CONN CHRIS mentioned this in his post a few minutes ago.
