Marco!!!! Scutaro!!!!!

We're back at .500 folks. Durazo went 3 for 4 with a HR and scored the winning run.

Good win, after a great comeback last night. I was reading in the Chronicle that Kots fired up the troops.

A's manager Ken Macha credited Kotsay with firing up the squad for the final push when the A's fell behind a second time. After a great throw to the plate to nail Carl Everett to end the White Sox's four-run sixth, Oakland's center fielder let his teammates have it.

"He came in and let everyone know how he felt about that inning,'' Macha said.

"It got pretty heated,'' said Chavez, who had two hits with men in scoring position and drove in three runs. "The game was ugly at that point, (Kotsay) just got mad. We scored three runs (after that), take that for what it's worth.''

Sad that a guy that's only been in Oakland 2 years had to be the one to do it, instead of Chavy.

THANK YOU, OAKLAND!

A's made my week.

Here's hoping the Whiney Sux start showing their tin man-like impersonation. They do it well. They are the baseball's version of scarecrow.
