Elephant Rumblings: Fiers Fires Up A’s, Why 200 Wins Is New 300

Mike Fiers would have liked to finish out sixth inning, but had no issues with leaving at 78 pitches. "I talked to Bob as soon as I got here and we're all about winning games. Whatever time he decides to pull me is his job. I trust those guys behind me and they picked me up."

Fiers: “It’s team baseball here, and that’s what I want to be a part of. This team does everything right. They hustle, they pitch well, they play defense, they come up with big hits, put together good at-bats against a good pitcher in Kershaw.
