rolliefingers08 Posted April 23, 2007 Author Share Posted April 23, 2007 Game 3 of 3: Oakland Athletics (43-35) @ San Diego Padres (45-33) Padres Win On Walker Off Left: Bradley chases a Gonzalez double to the outfield wall. Right: Walker gets an arm after hitting his walk-off shot in the 11th. The A's went into the final day of their 3-game set with the San Diego Padres hoping to cap off their road trip on a positive note, however such was not the case as the A's dropped the rubber match of the series 3-1 in extra innings. Josh Barfield hit a solo home run in the 6th inning to give the Padres a 1-0 lead, and it looked safe going into the 9th with starter Shawn Estes still on the mound. Nick Swisher delivered with a single to lead off the inning, and he moved up to 2nd on an Eric Chavez walk. Bobby Kielty laid down a sacrifice bunt to advance the runners, bringing the enigma that is Bobby Crosby to the plate. This time the young shortstop delivered with a fly ball to deep right, scoring Swisher from 3rd and tying the game. That was it for Estes as he finished with a solid line of 8 2/3 innings pitched, allowing just 1 run on 7 hits and 3 walks, striking out 7. Through 10 and a half innings the game was tied, but Justin Duchscherer gave up a single to lead off the home side of the 11th, and was pulled for the lefthanded matchup of Joe Kennedy on pinch-hitter Ryan Klesko. After a quick one-pitch groundball out, Todd Walker stepped up to the plate, and the 2nd pitch he saw was driven deep to left-centerfield, out of the reach of Mark Kotsay at the wall to win the game on a walk off home run. Clubhouse Talk: Kennedy: "That's just one of those things where you make the right pitch, but it wasn't right enough and the guy tagged me on it." Tomorrow: The A's are back home to the Coliseum as they take on the Arizona Diamondbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rolliefingers08 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 Bah... I miss doing this! My p.o.s. computer decided to restart on its own while installing windows updates, and as a result, no longer logs on, and requires a windows repair... so it's on the DL for awhile longer. Hopefully now that the problem has been diagnosed, it can be fixed quickly, because I WANT TO PLAY AGAIN! So rest assured, I will be back, and there is much to be done.

redsox Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 That is very nice to hear. Would you be continuing this same dynasty or would you be starting a new one? BTW, when I had first started my dynasty, I was basing the format off of yours. Hope everything works and that you start posting again. Really liked your presentations. Take care.

rolliefingers08 Posted June 26, 2007 Author Share Posted June 26, 2007 Ohh I hope to be continuing on with this one, as long as none of my files end up corrupted. I know it's still stuck in 2006, which is why I had been trying to go as quickly as possible. The plan is to go through the 2007 offseason as close to realistic as possible, although I wouldn't rule out a resigning of Barry Zito or Frank Thomas. I also plan to 'fix' the offseason with the team changer and player editor to put prominent free agents on the teams they ended up with in 2007.
