Just to show you the magical power of blogging, we are the first people on the Web to break the news that Ken Macha is leaving as manager of the Oakland Athletics. According to Peter Gammons, Macha wanted more money than general manager Smilin' Billy Beane wanted to pay, so he's now a "free agent."

How do we know this? We just saw it on Baseball Tonight. But we still had it up before ESPN.com. So we win! Wee!
