Running and Slugging

The Oakland A's will run when they believe they can steal a base. Eric Byrnes heard you can run on Contreras, so he stole both 2nd and 3rd. Of course, staying at first would have been fine, as Chavez drives him in with a HR. The A's are now 8 for 11 stealing bases, and Byrnes is 5 for 5. Hatteberg followed up with another HR to right to give the A's a 3-0 lead after 1.
