FALL BALL CHAMPION A's

11/19: Thursday night, 7 PM, Dell Diamond.

Aaron Lippe and Cory Thell faced off in a championship matchup for the ages.  Lippe's A's came out on top behind his complete game 5-3 victory over the Yankees at Dell Diamond.

Zach Oertli scored the first run of the night on a single by Philip Escobar, then knocked in the second A's run.

Carlos Soriano singled past a diving SS to knock in a run after Corey Thell reached.  Jeff Lilly drilled a single to tie the game 2-2.

Philip Escobar hit a grounder to short and Brandeaux Tourville's throw home was wide, scoring two runs.  A HBP drove in the fifth A's run.

In the top of the last inning, Cory Thell again dropped a hit in on the right field line for a double to make it 5-3 but the score stood and the A's finished their perfect fall season.
