Tonight is a good night to post this; Cust hit a grand slam and drove in seven of Oakland's 16 runs (vs. Detroit's 10).
He's got 17 home runs (leading the A's) in 240 ABs for just over 14 ABs/HR, which doesn't compare to A-Rod's 11.6 ABs/HR (Ryan Howard's is under 11!), but it's up there. (I wish I had time to write a program to figure out what percentile that puts him at.)

The A's April
The Athletics Nation blog has an interesting summary of the Oakland A's April. I wonder if any other team has had as many injuries to key players; Yankees and Jays fans may be feeling sorry for themselves, but I think the A's have it worse.
I "watched" the last two games against the Red Sox--on TiVo after the kids were all in bed. The A's played quite well in both. I almost woke up the kids groaning on the play where Piazza was injured.
