Wake Up With Miguel Tejada Hitting A Walk-Off Home Run To Make It 18 Wins In A Row For The A's (2002)
A little over a year ago, we woke up with the A’s winning their 20th consecutive game in 2002 on a Scott Hatteberg walk-off homer, which was recreated in the movie adaptation of Moneyball. But two games before that, the A’s walked off to make it 18 in a row when Miguel Tejada took Everyday Eddie Guardardo deep, which was one of the major highlights of his MVP season that year. You know what else was a major highlight of Tejada’s season that year? When he collected another walk-off hit to make it NINETEEN in a row. Fuckin’ Hatteberg gets all the Hollywood glory, though. That son of a bitch. Did the dude who played Tejada in that movie even have a speaking part?? Shit ain’t right.
