Rangers vs. Athletics
A's Lose 4-9
The currently named McAfee Coliseum is a giant concrete stadium from pre-1990. This can be interpreted as it's not a very pretty stadium. The concourses and seating areas are all reminiscent of 1980's baseball. As you can tell, I was not impressed. The entire upper level of the stadium was closed off. Obviously that's a sign of poor attendance since this was a Saturday game. I do have to complement the A's on the variety of beer selection. I really enjoyed a local microbrew called "Curve Ball."
The game was slow to get started, but then the scoring opened up for the Rangers. It is at this point I must point out the ESP like quality of my friend Paul. He out of the blue said that Josh Hamilton will hit out one out. On the very next pitch, Hamiltion took one deep to left. Truly an amazing prediction. With the late glut of scoring, came many pitching changes. A flaw with AL baseball, no worry of the double switch.
