The Oakland Athletics, currently playing in a minor league park, experienced another embarrassing moment as two medical carts malfunctioned while retrieving injured Mets outfielder Jose Siri. Following Siri's injury in the second inning, the first cart stalled, requiring multiple workers to push it off the field. As a result, a second medical cart was brought in, drawing comments from the SNY broadcast team who reflected on the team's persistent minor league issues. The A's continue to await their new stadium in Las Vegas, facing ridicule about their operations.
'With Siri in obvious pain, a golf cart entered the field. The idea was to ferry Siri to the visiting clubhouse... The golf cart had other ideas.'
'Gary Cohen said, "We used to have a saying... whenever something like that would happen, we'd say, 'That's why they call it the minor leagues.'"
'A second medical cart was brought onto the field... after the first cart stalled out, requiring a slew of workers to push it off the field.'
'Cohen's colleague Ron Darling... said, 'This is something out of the silent slapstick film series...'
