We win and the Angels and Athletics can't even capitalize?

Man, fuck those guys.

DA slowly reestablishing himself so we can get Guti Part II in the offseason.

As we closed on 40 - i told everyone to watch the DA

I was so happy, it felt like win 50!

I'm so confused.

The line can go up?

40 wins seems completely different than 39

It can only get better from here on out. Fat chance.

So glad we're at 40, but looking at who we have to play for the rest of the way, I'll jump for joy if we make it past 60.

Casey Kotchman is my hero

I was sitting in row 18 and I yelled at League as loud as I could "THROW YOUR SPLITTER" after he threw a first pitch fastball to open the inning.

He paused, stepped off the rubber, walked back on, and threw a splitter the very next pitch. It was awesome. It was also a ball, since it was Brandon League, but still.

Someone in my section yelled that, too, but I don't think it was after League's first pitch, so I guess it wasn't you.

It sure is nice to get to 40 wins before the middle of August.

This takes me back to the very early days of the franchise when I was just glad we finally had a team.

Yay for Guti dingers.

And a hearty chuckle at the “Miracle” photo, heh.

Also, despite Adam Moore's horrendous day at the plate, he drove two balls to right field (one that was a line drive towards the corner that went just foul, the other the fly out) that looked really well struck.

He has legitimate opposite field power, which is nice on a team where only three guys (Bradley, Gutierrez, and Branyan) seem to have even a chance at hitting one out that way.
