G136: Athletics 1, Red Sox 0

Eduardo Rodriguez (8-1-0-2-5, 110) was a mere four outs away from a no-hitter when he allowed an infield single.

With two outs in the eighth, Marcus Semien ground the ball back to the mound. It hit off Rodriguez's foot or lower leg and the lefty could not find the ball right away. He recovered and made a quick throw to first and the runner was called out. The Athletics wisely challenged the call - and it was correctly overturned, with Semien getting credit for a single.

Oakland had four baserunners before the hit: a two-out walk in the first, an infield error in the second, a two-out walk in the fifth, and a HBP in the sixth.
