Not one post about Oakland rookie Sonny Gray's awesome start against Detroit?
Here's one:
It was Sonny Gray who took over The Justin Verlander Show, and the A's took the momentum from the Tigers in evening up this best-of-five American League Division Series at one game apiece with a 1-0 walk-off victory that was every bit as thrilling as it was critical at the Coliseum on Saturday evening.

Verlander was part dominant, part gritty, but so was Gray. Making his first postseason start, Gray impressed not only with the stuff that made him a the A's first-round Draft pick in 2011, but also with an unflappable presence that proved essential as he performed on the biggest stage of his career.
And all he did was pitch the game of his life. Turns out this kid is all right.
"He pitched like Josh Beckett and Curt Schilling," said Detroit's Miguel Cabrera. "Man, he was good. He was great today."
