A win after 4 losses

Yesterday's game looked extremely promising with Harden looking like the Harden he had always promised he could be.  It made the past few seasons of disabled list stints all worth the wait.  Harden not only pitched exceptionally well but he recorded his first major league hit, and off of Hudson no less.  Cust hit a solo home run, walked and struck out using every one of his skills.  (He hardly does anything other than those 3 things.)  Sweeney hit a 3 run home run and this game got the bad taste of loosing 4 in a row out of my mouth. The reliever Casilla is on the Disabled List, Ellis is injured and not playing, while Chavy and Buck are playing in Triple A. All of these things did not matter tonight as the Athletics beat the Braves. Street looked dicey tonight.  It feels like you never know which Huston Street is going to come out and pitch. He could be lights out or the other team could hit everything he throws.  He almost blew the game tonight but luckily the Braves only scored 3 runs against him. Still those 3 should not have happened.
