Despite still having some of the game's top players, age and youth did not mix well as the A's posted consecutive 8th place finishes with records of 43-109 and 36-117! (It would not be until 1922 that the Mackmen would rise above the cellar, but by 1929 - oh, brother - what a string of American League pennants! _______________________ Important: Shipping Information Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low.
