Oakland A's pitcher
Justin "Duke" Duchscherer started his first game in five years last night, which was the genesis for
this entry on Catfish Stew.
I'm sure Duke will be a Man of our Times, and put to rest any thoughts that the plan to make him a starter was just some sort of Misunderstanding. But let's hope Duke isn't Alone Tonight as the only A's player who does anything well. Please Don't Ask where the A's offense has been; they've been missing somewhere Behind the Lines. They need to Turn It On Again, and keep going forward, not get stuck in some offensive Cul-De-Sac that goes nowhere. Otherwise, Duke's Travels will just end up forgotten in a Heathaze of Athletics losses. Here's hoping Duke's End is more uplifting than that.
The A's
won last night, and Duke pitched well for five innings before leaving in the top of the sixth with a
strained bicep. It was just like the title of
Phil's second solo album, and just a minor setback if you take it at
face value,
but seriously I think Duke needs at least
one more night off before he can
turn it on again.

I find it highly appropriate to reference boring white guys when talking about A's baseball!
Now we need a band that's made up of incompetent kids and mediocre, over-the-hill senior citizens so we can talk about my team!
go giants,
