Harden's line ended with six innings, three hits, one ER, three walks, and nine strikeouts. Casilla picked up where he left off, striking out two of the four batters he faced.

A's still holding onto a 4-1 lead as we go to the bottom of the seventh.

Start with Brown

go to DiNardo for Ortiz/Manny. Tough to hit HRs off of Lenny.

I would say Foulke because of yesterday, but I get the feeling that he might have just had the one FU inning (goy Papi and Manny)

Bullshit

Major League umpiring can be a terrible joke sometimes. Rookies get squeezed, it's a fucking disgrace to the game.
