    The game kept wearing on, slowly and seemingly out of reach for the Oakland Athletics. They had lost a two-run lead and trailed by five after six innings.

    The young A's were far from unnerved.

    "The way the game was going, it didn't seem like it was out of reach the whole time," said Oakland's Chad Pinder. "I didn't get that vibe at all in the dugout. We just kept trying to put together good at-bats, and that's what everyone did."

    Never more than in the eighth inning, when the A's scored five times with two outs to stun the Los Angeles Angels 11-10 on Sunday afternoon in a game that took 4 hours, 12 minutes, the longest nine-inning home game in franchise history.
