OT: Great season, and goodbye to a couple of the greats..
What were your favorite or most memorable moments about this season?
Miggy's Triple Crown!!! 3 Perfect Games!!! 7 total no-hitters!!! Hamilton's 4 home run game!!! Aaron Hill's 2 cycles in 11 days!!! The A's(coinciding with Moneyball)!!! Mike Trout's insane rookie year!!! Adam Dunn tying the record for most opening day home runs!!! Alex Rodriguez tying Gehrig for most career Grand Slams!!! Jim Thome breaking the record for most career walk off home runs!!! Jamie Moyer becomes the oldest pitcher to win a game!!! Doug Fister striking out 9 consecutive batters!!! Plus Chipper Jones and Omar Vizquel both going out with singles in their final regular season at bats..
Honestly, a regular season doesn't get any more exciting than this.(give or take a few PED suspensions and the mess in Boston) .I can't wait to see what the playoffs have in store for us...
Now back to the A's and Moneyball. Let's keep in mind that when the Red Sox won the world series in 2004, that a movie was being made about the team. What are the odd's that the baseball God's will bring similar luck to the A's to coincide with the first full season after the release of Moneyball?
