Oakland puts the "A" in AL with 2nd straight WS trip

​

​

"Straight A's"​

Oakland heads to its 2nd straight World Series​

​

​

Oakland AP; A clean sweep and total domination of the Baltimore Orioles lead to an epic celebration on the mound after the Oakland A's clinched their second American League pennant in as many years with a 13-1 win on Thursday night. The celebration in the streets of Oakland made the Trevon Martin protests look like a cub scout meeting. AJ Griffin took a 0ne hitter into the 9th and Veteran Grant Balfour closed it out to pop off the party that lasted late into the night "west coast style". The A's will face the Washington Nationals(Knight) in a much anticipated matchup that has been in the making for three seasons now. Oakland heads to the Nation's capital with a .356 avg and 74 runs scored in the playoffs so far while only giving up 33 runs. The pitching for the A's brings a 4.14 era and a team record of 7-1 to the post season.​
