The A's shook off their recent offensive woes, scoring 9, on the back of two home runs by Jack Cust, another home run by leadoff man Jack Hannahan, and Dana Eveland went the full nine innings, en route to a 9-1 victory, thwarting the Rays' chances for a sweep, and keeping the A's record safely above .500, at 25-23. When I saw this afternoon's lineup, featuring Hannahan in the leadoff position and Crosby batting second, I didn't know what to expect. It certainly didn't seem like a 1-9 I would have drawn up. But the pair combined for a 4-9 mark, with a double, Hannahan's home run, a walk and 3 RBIs, all in front of today's masher, Cust, who finished the game with 4 RBI.
