  • A's News Clips, Sunday, May 30, 2010 Brett Anderson Sparkles In
    A’s News Clips, Sunday, May 30, 2010 Brett Anderson sparkles in return for A's By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune The A's understandably had Brett Anderson on a short leash Saturday night. Therefore, it was a surprise when the bottom of the sixth inning rolled around and Anderson's workday wasn't done. The left-hander marked his return from the disabled list with 52/3 scoreless innings as the A's blanked the Detroit Tigers 6-0 before a crowd of 39,750 at Comerica Park. The A's won their fourth straight, reclaiming sole possession of first place in the American League West for the first time since May 5. Mark Ellis homered and had a season-high four RBIs, and Gabe Gross made an over-the-fence grab in left field that may rank as the A's defensive highlight of the year. But Anderson's surprising dominance, after he missed five weeks with a strained left forearm, had manager Bob Geren smiling in the clubhouse afterward. "That was very, very impressive," Geren said. "Considering the time he'd been off, to have that sharp of command and that good of stuff "... you couldn't ask for a better start." Anderson allowed Johnny Damon's one-out single in the first and then retired 16 in a row until the sixth. He was pulled that inning after Damon's double put runners on second and third with two outs. Brad Ziegler entered and retired Magglio Ordonez on a lineout to third to preserve the A's 2-0 lead.

  • May 11, 2011 Tribune Pujols Takes Center Stage In
    May 11, 2011 Tribune Pujols takes center stage in Cardinals' 6-4 victory Speculation abounds about future home as slugger goes 4-for-5 against Cubs By: Paul Sullivan On the first pleasant night for baseball at Wrigley Field, everyone was feeling a little giddy. The locals booed one former Cub lustily, while one current Cub was greeted with mock cheers when he managed to catch a routine fly. But the biggest feel-good moment of the night occurred behind the batting cage before before the Cardinals' 6-4 victory when slugger Albert Pujols wrapped his big arms around Cubs general manager Jim Hendry in a photogenic bear hug. Was Pujols, who went 4-for-5 on the night, starting the negotiating process, or just saying hello to an old friend? Six months remain before Pujols can become a free-agent, but "the hug" was interpreted by some as a sign the Cubs will be courting the star in November. Hendry took pains to point out he and Pujols were just exchanging pleasantries, not dollar figures. Tampering rules prohibit the Cubs from talking about players on other teams. But hugging the opposition? "Well, he hugged me first," Hendry said with a laugh. "He's a lot bigger and stronger than me." Peppered with questions about "the hug," Hendry pointed out he hugged former Cub Ryan Theriot — the object of fans' derision — twice before the game. "I can't win," Hendry said. "I like Albert. We've always gotten along. He's a great, great player. I admire the heck out of him.
