Tune in at 10:05 PM ET as the Padres take on the Athletics. Twitter will be providing updates on all the action.
My competition in Sacramento is gone, now I'm stuck with garbage hitters. SMH #Athletics #mannyramirez
wow... “@Athletics: Manny Ramirez has requested his outright release from the #Athletics and the team has granted his request.”
Damn my #Padres suck. Still love em through and through tho. There’s always next year. #ortheyearafter
I just spoke to Manny Ramirez. He's very much at peace with this decision, hopes to find another spot to play. #Athletics
Atta boy, Hatteberg! Good luck on the call tonight. #athletics
"…to the major leagues. However, given that the #Athletics could not give Manny any assurance that they plan to promote him in the …" MORE
"…immediate future he asked for his release. Manny thanks the #Athletics for providing him with this opportunity."
This weekend is going to be very, very difficult for me. #Athletics #FOSSEPOSSE #FOREVER
Ramirez said he realized that the #Athletics didn't have a spot for him and weren't likely to. #Athletics
Ramirez says he genuinely appreciates the opportunity the #Athletics gave him and he had a blast during the spring and with @Rivercats.
En el aire con Amaury Pi-Gonzalez para el 1er juego entre los #Padres y los #Athletics por KIQI 1010 AM, KATD 990 AM y, en Fresno, KWRU 1300
Not even back in the big leagues and it's Manny being Manny. #Athletics
"@Athletics: Manny Ramirez has requested his outright release from the #Athletics and the team has granted his request." Hahaha
Coco Crisp steals his 30th consecutive base and 10th on the season to start the bottom of the 1st. #Athletics
Buh bye. “@Athletics: Manny Ramirez has requested his outright release from the #Athletics and the team has granted his request.”
Manny Ramirez asked for and received his release from #Athletics today.
Padres - C. Quentin singled to shallow left center, E. Cabrera scored, C. Headley to second (SD 1, OAK 0, top 1st) #athletics
Hatteberg is very composed and sounds great. Problem: 2 straight men calling the game. No color or punch. All Martin, no Lewis. #Athletics
That's 33 consecutive successful stolen bases and counting for #CocoCrisp, as he extends his franchise record. #MLB #Athletics
Anthony Bass hasn't been close to the plate since he got ahead of Jemile Weeks 0-2 in the count. Even the Weeks foul ball wasn't close.
#Athletics @Coco_Crisp successful in his last 33 stolen base attempts, longest streak in club history.
There was no place for Manny Ramirez on this team. #Athletics
"its pretty safe to say, the Oakland A's won't have a batting champion here - Dick Enberg. Sounds familiar, #PetcoNationalPark #Padres
Great PA by Jemile Weeks to draw a walk on eight pitches despite falling behind 0-2 in the count. Anthony Bass has now walked two to start.
Worth noting that with Ohlendorf now in the rotation, the #Padres no longer have a true long man in the bullpen.
Anthony Bass hasn't pitched well his last 4 starts at all.. #sorrynotsorry
Win a bar bet: Coco Crisp holds the #athletics record for most consecutive steals wo being caught and still going: 33 not Rickey.
Josh "Tramp Stamp" Reddick batting with two runners on and none away
#athletics
Really want to believe that Bass' early success wasn't just small sample size #Padres
Inning #1. OAK scored 2 runs. Score: SD: 1, OAK: 2 #athletics #padres #mlb
A's TV broadcast is not the same without Ray Fosse, but I'm trying to be open to change. #Athletics

Reddick to 3rd with a 2 run triple 👏👍 #Athletics
Josh Reddick got a 1-1 fastball up in the zone from Anthony Bass and ripped the pitch to the right field corner for a two-run triple.
At Sweet Home Coliseum :) A's v. Padres and post game fireworks! #athletics
Anthony Bass has been inconstant the last few starts. Up in the zone, getting behind, very irratic. Looking that way early tonight. #Padres
Walks kill. So far, #TravisBlackley & #AnthonyBass have walked three batters in the first inning. Three runs have scored. #MLB #Athletics
Dear Red Sox, thanks for Reddick. A's fans everywhere. #Athletics
Darren Balsley talked earlier this week of how Anthony Bass needs to figure how to get out of a 'crisis.' Well, this is one of them. #Padres
He stays HOT!!! Josh Reddick with a 2-run triple and the #Athletics lead 2-1.
Add a RBI single from Brandon Inge and it's #Athletics 3, #Padres 1.
Big props to whomever raised @Addison_Russell Not sure I've ever heard a recent high school grad with manners like that. #Athletics
It made some sense. Low risk/medium reward power source “@BNightengale: Manny: He gone. #Athletics. Signing never did make sense #mlb”
Flipping between the #SFGiants and #Athletics games. I like Travis Blackley, k.
