I remember the good old A's teams that i grew up watching my favorite lineup of all time.
SS- Walt Weiss
2b- Mike Gallego
1b- Mark Mcgwire
RF- Jose Canseco
LF- Ricky Henderson
CF- Dave Parker/Dave Henderson
3b- Carney lansford
C- Terry Steinbach
P- Dave Stewart/Bob Welch/Mike Moore
Those were the good old days. Until Carney broke his leg in a snowmobile accident and was never the same.

Epic lineup. Sick speed. Sick power. Sick pitching. Those were the glory days. The bash brothers hitting the ball like nobody had seen before. Eckersley lights out like Gagne. Back-back-back ROY. Don't forget Rick Honeycutt. Sandy Alderson, Tony LaRussa. Man I loved that team. I cried when Gibson hit his homerun. Eck was perfect. How did it happen?
