Sorry!
With two out in the ninth, Milton Bradley follows an Eric Chavez single with a monster home run off Joe Borowski. That ties the game at seven, and Dan Johnson singles to keep the inning alive.
Update: Crosby singles to bring up Jack Cust. Borowski is done.
According to the broadcast, the Indians and Athletics are 1-2 in last at bat wins. One of them will get another today.
Update: I can't believe what I just saw. Jack Cust takes an easy swing at the first pitch. At first I thought it was going to be a fly out to left, but it goes over the fence in left center for a walk off three-run homer. The Athletics score five in the ninth to win 10-7. Fernando Cabrera gives up the shot to pin the loss on Joe Borowski. That six home runs for Cust in seven games. He also picked up a double today, so seven of his nine hits are for extra bases.
I just saw the slo-motion replay of the homer. He had a huge uppercut, probably 60 degrees from level.
Cust's home run was the fourth of the game, all for the A's. That means another $40 for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.

So is Jack Cust going to be Ryan Howard? Or Chris Shelton? Either way, he's DAMN fun to watch.
Nice headline, David! The Milton Bradley jokes never get old.
