Yeah, both those guys are in the pen. I think Porcello even made a brief appearance at some point. Can't remember which game.

Man, I love/hate these Oakland fans. They're a crazy, noisy bunch.
JV pitching extremely well through 5 ..pitch count pretty good.

Not too noisy during the top of the 7th. It's like a library in there right now.

Call me crazy, but the later in the series V pitches his first game, the less likely he is to pitch his second.

Verlander is a decent pitcher sometimes.

Congrats to A's and their fans on a wonderful season, what a team. Games 2 and 4 nearly killed me.

Great night for Verlander. Loved it in th 9th when the announcers said.. "There is nobody loosening up or even stretching in the bull pen..this is Verlanders game"
My hats off to the As. Hard to believe with that lineup they did what they did. 15 walkoff wins does help the cause.

Man did Verlander look in control from start to finish or what
A's catcher looked very nervous.
Would love to see the O's just for HFA but playing the Yankees is never boring.

I would expect the yanks to win today, setting up a possible CC vs JV game 3 if they short rest CC. Either team it should be interesting.Man did Verlander look in control from start to finish or whatA's catcher looked very nervous.

CC's no stranger to short rest either, probably the right move for the Yanks if they win today.

Glad the O's took that game ...gives Detroit an extra day of rest, which should allow JV to pitch game 3, maybe. JV - what a warrior.There's going to be some coooold World Series games.

I don't think Detroit gets an extra day of rest, it's just that the Orioles/Yankees won't get any rest. MLB is locked in with a 10/13 start to this series I believe.JV pitches game 3 for sure. Tuesday Night.

Exactly. Game 3 and 7 would both be regular rest for JV. I think Max is the one that I would bump to game 4 to pull JV ahead. He's better than Anibal, but his endurance and velocity are both still down from the shoulder injury. Give him as much rest as you can.FisterSanchezVerlanderScherzerFisterSanchezVerlanderWoot!!!!I don't think Detroit gets an extra day of rest, it's just that the Orioles/Yankees won't get any rest.

A great season for the A's. Really incredible what they pulled off with such young talent. Verlander was just too much. Detroit's starting pitching was awesome. The offense was just OK. Prince had some hits stolen by great defense. Cabrera hit well, but was not all that clutch. Infante had a great series, the best of any non-pitcher. Detroit's defense probably had its best stretch all season. We won't even talk about the bullpen. The only adjustment I would make to the roster is find a way to get Villarreal on it.
That is likely the rotation. It would be nice if Max can go game 2.Exactly. Game 3 and 7 would both be regular rest for JV. I think Max is the one that I would bump to game 4 to pull JV ahead.

Delmon sucks vs. righties, Boesch sucks against everybody.
Pretty solid combo.
