  • A's News Clips, Friday, June 18, 2010 Oakland A's Bullpen Lets Dallas Braden Down in Late Loss to Chicago Cubs by Joe Stiglich
    A’s News Clips, Friday, June 18, 2010 Oakland A's bullpen lets Dallas Braden down in late loss to Chicago Cubs By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune Dallas Braden was lined up for a well-deserved win, and the A's were poised to leave the Windy City with a series victory. That script never played out on a picturesque Thursday afternoon at Wrigley Field. Oakland's bullpen laid an egg in the late innings, and Kosuke Fukudome's walk-off RBI single off Jerry Blevins in the bottom of the ninth gave the Chicago Cubs a 3-2 victory in front of 36,942 fans. "That's a tough way to lose," A's second baseman Mark Ellis said. "Give (the Cubs) credit. They had some good at-bats there at the end." This one had to sting on several fronts for the A's. They could have carried some momentum into St. Louis as they begin a challenging weekend series against the Cardinals tonight. Instead, they watched the Cubs win their first series since taking two of three from the Los Angeles Dodgers on May 25-27. Oakland also spoiled an excellent start from Braden, who threw six innings of one-run ball and left with a lead but still hasn't found the win column since his May 9 perfect game. "Dallas pitched so hard. He gave us a chance," manager Bob Geren said. With the first-place Texas Rangers gathering steam, the A's have lost 11 of their past 16 and are a season-high six games out in the American League West.

  • A's News Clips, Friday, September 4, 2009 Long Ball Bites Tomko
    A’s News Clips, Friday, September 4, 2009 Long ball bites Tomko, A's By Joe Stiglich, OAKLAND TRIBUNE Brett Tomko doesn't make a secret of his philosophy on the mound. He goes after hitters and isn't afraid of giving up the home run ball. After delivering three fine starts upon joining the A's rotation, Tomko hit his first stumbling block in green and gold, as the Seattle Mariners teed off on the veteran right-hander in a 7-4 defeat of Oakland on Thursday before a sparse crowd of 10,297. Tomko gave up a pair of two-run homers in the first inning and served up one more in the fourth, as the A's fell to 3-10 this season against the Mariners, the team directly above them in the American League West standings. "Guys got on base, and I fell behind (on all three homers)," Tomko said. "When you fall behind guys and don't make a quality pitch, that's what's going to happen." Today, the A's will call up right-hander Clayton Mortensen from Triple-A Sacramento to start in place of Vin Mazzaro. Mazzaro was examined by a doctor and found to have some tendinitis in his right shoulder. Manager Bob Geren said it's possible Mazzaro may just be skipped for a turn to rest his shoulder. His next scheduled start is a week from today in Minnesota. "He hasn't bounced back start-to-start as well as we'd like," Geren said. Tomko found trouble immediately Thursday.

  • A's News Clips, Tuesday, September 22, 2009 A's Streak Ends With
    A’s News Clips, Tuesday, September 22, 2009 A's streak ends with big thud By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune As convincing as the A's beat the opposition while winning seven games in a row, Monday night's streak-buster also was no cheapie. The Texas Rangers pounded A's starter Edgar Gonzalez early and coasted to a 10-3 victory, preventing the A's from bagging a season-high eighth straight win. Oakland outscored its opponents 45-12 during the win streak and never trailed in any of the games. That changed in a hurry Monday, as the Rangers scored four runs in the first two innings and led 6-0 by the fourth to end most of the intrigue for an announced crowd of 10,581 at the Oakland Coliseum. "We haven't had too many of these all year," A's manager Bob Geren said of the lopsided loss. "You know the winning streak is going to come to an end, but not necessarily in this style." Gonzalez's command was off, and he also thought he got squeezed by home plate umpire Laz Diaz on some borderline pitches. "After that, I had to throw the ball down the middle," he said. Gonzalez (0-3), whose work had been sporadic most of the season as a long reliever, was making his third start since being inserted into the A's expanded six-man rotation. He was tagged for nine hits and six runs (five earned) in 31/3 innings. The A's, though, are without injured starters Dallas Braden, Vin Mazzaro and Brett Tomko for the rest of the season, so Gonzalez will remain in the rotation at least through his next start Sunday against the Los Angeles Angels.
