It seems Oakland Athletics fans don’t like Francisco Rodriguez, and revel in his failures:
This is one of those moments. Oakland hosted the Tigers over the weekend, and in each of the final two games they broke Detroit closer Francisco Rodriguez for a 9th-inning comeback and a walk-off win.
This is K-Rod we’re talking about. The guy who helped lead the Angels to a World Series title, albeit in doing so he prevented the Giants from winning but stay focused here. He’s fourth all-time in saves, and he holds the single-season record thanks to also holding the single-season record in save opportunities. He is extremely easy to dislike for many reasons, and I take the beaten path in that regard.
Fortunately, this weekend the A’s would not allow him to celebrate on their field.
Those were the first two walk-off wins of the season for the A’s. The Angels lead the majors with four walk-off wins.
