I have also become an A's fan. Watch out for them next year.

Thanks Bob, and you're right on both counts.

The game is over and really was different from a regular season game, but it's just an exhibition and a chance to honor players; past, present and future.

Again, I was happy for Rooker and he performed well. He definitely got the AL kick started with the 3 run blast.

I'm actually looking forward to the second half to see how they gel and come together. They've definitely got a lot of talent.
