Moments/ emotions from last night you'll never forget
Feeling like I'd been kicked in the balls and had my lunch money stolen after Moss put the A's up 2-0.
......The silence from the crowd after the HR happened. Brandon Finnegan. I mean... Brandon K. Finnegan. Amazing. Watching Billy Butler wander off first- wondering what had just happened. Being so excited that Moose seems to have learned to hit the ball opo. The look of despair on the face of Ventura after giving up a huge HR, (**** you Moss). Watching Gore being put into the game, and KNOWING he was going to steal second successfully. The crowd shots of the fans with the same look of despair that Ventura showed earlier in the night. Dyson stealing 3rd. Again, KNOWING he would steal 3rd, and that he'd be succuessful. Aoki hitting the deep fly ball to right. (I thought that ball had a chance to get out) The feeling that we deserved to lose the game after failing to get a big hit to win the game. The joy watching Hosmer hit that triple. The joy watching Colon get the tying run home. The joy watching Perez get the game winning hit The tears that came after it set in that we had won our first playoff game in 29 years. Please share some of what you experienced- |

All of it. I went to the garage when they went down 7-3 to work on the jeep. Listened on the radio. All of a sudden, it's 7-6 when I decide I have to see it. Made my poor son go to bed at 11pm. He says, "well, it was a pretty good year anyhow" as the A's just scored. Woke him up this morning and let him watch the bottom of the 12th which I recorded. We jumped around like crazy again.

The gun shots overheard in KCMO actually meaning something good happened.

Guthrie is hilarious. "American League playoff record. I warmed up the Left Fielder 12 times. We set a lot of records. Hats off to me. Hats off to G-Baby Gore."

I had been sitting pretty calmly and silently by myself for most of the game while my son and wife slept upstairs. But when Salvy got the hit, I jumped up and just SCREAMED as loud as I have ever screamed, over and over and over, pounding a countertop. My family came running downstairs to see what the hell was going on. I tried to explain, but I had pretty much blown out my voice in those 30 seconds. I just told them it would take an hour to recount every crazy turn of that game, and it simply was one of the greatest postseason games in baseball history.
After they left, I just sat down and wept. |

Everything. ...and the fact that I'm on business trip on the east coast.....I'm exhausted today....but it's a good exhausted. Colon Hosmer Perez dyson.....they paid back yost for his loyalty....and maybe saved him his job for the epic shields mistake. But aside from that....and ladies is great today....might have to go up to Anaheim for game 2!

However, it may go down in history as one of (if not the best) playoff games ever.
