...game 3:
1. The A's did not know what every LL'er knows - how to execute a proper rundown
2. The A's did not know what every HS player knows - if you slide across home and the ump does nothing you missed the plate
3. The A's did not know what every first year rookie league player knows - if you think you have been obstructed keep running anyway, do NOT take this opportunity to stop & celebrate what you might not get.

By the way, when Nomar recovered the ball in the outfield after the Damon/Jackson collision and threw the runner out at 2nd, did anybody get flashbacks of Jeter's amazing cut-off play (also in Oakland, I think) to nail the runner at home a couple years ago?

No one south of that line from Milford to Albany.
BTW, have you heard if Damon's ready to play yet?
