A-Rod may have to acknowledge Braden's greatness now.

Official attendance in Oakland - 12,228, but I bet you will find 40,000 people in the bay area that will end a sentence with "and I was there to see him do it!!!!!!!!"

[cochamps]

wow, didn't know that guy had it in him.

Braden lost his mother to cancer when he was in High School. Pretty awesome to watch him hugging his Grandmother after the game. It wouldn't surprise me to see that very moment duplicated in a movie.

Pretty awesome that he did it on Mother's Day, given his mom's passing of cancer. He had started to become a douchebag about the A-Rod incident, but this puts him back into a more positive place. Really happy for him.
