The club won its 40th game tonight and remains just a game and a half back of the Mariners in the division.
The first four inningsThe offense did not show up at all through the first four frames in tonight’s game. Facing the Angels’ top young starting pitcher Walbert Urena, the A’s went down 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12 in this one (four perfect innings).On the bright side of things, the A’s had their own young rising ace in J.
T. Ginn on the mound tonight. While he wasn’t as perfect as his counterpart, Ginn did his job with three scoreless innings in going toe-to-toe with his mound opponent.
Los Angeles did strike first tonight. A double and passed ball put an Angels baserunner on third base but with two down all Ginn needed was any sort of soft contact. Alas, a line-drive single plated the first run of the game to give the Angels the first lead of the night.
The fifth inningThat lone run really woke up the A’s bats. After getting perfected for the first four innings the offense got to work against the rookie right-hander that had had their number for the past 15+ innings dating back to his previous two starts.It all started with, of course, a walk.
Followed by a force out at second. Nothing too crazy. Then a walk.
Then a single to load the bases, the first domino. Then the hit that gave the A’s the lead, another single from Jeff McNeil:Jeff McNeil knocks in two for the lead 🐿️ pic.twitter.
