The A’s won a squeaker tonight in Oakland.

3-2 in 13 innings. We won a game that Justin Verlander started. We didn’t beat him…he got a no-decision…but it’s still significant. That’s the best we’ve been able to do against him for a long, long time.

The Astros have played a level above us so far this year. Entering this series, we had 8 more games against them to prove we could play at their level. So far, we’ve won the first two contests. I hope we win all 6 of the rest 😂

They’re a better team. No doubt. But baseball is a crazy sport. Shit happens.

It’s late, though, so I’m going to keep it short tonight. That’s the theme of this years’ blog entries, man. “It’s late, I gotta run.” It’s because of the day job. For sure. I have to go to bed earlier than I’ve been used to for the past decade or so because of it.

But I haven’t felt overly tired for the past year. Not at all. I just think it’s a mental shift I haven’t made yet. It always makes me feel like I’m going to bed too late. Maybe I can just let that stress go, you know?

Working on it.

Solid day. I was tired. Long week. Just did some writing…

Life is good. Seriously. I’m feeling good right now 🙂

Night.
