The A’s dropped both of their games in Saturday’s split squad double header, losing to both the Milwaukee Brewers and the Texas Rangers.
Brewers handle A’s 8-0
The A’s squad against the Brewers featured mostly young guys and prospects not likely to be on the Opening Day roster (outside of prized shortstop Jacob Wilson). On the hill for the squad for the A’s was righty Mitch Spence, who had had a solid spring up to this point.
After a quiet first inning that saw him induce a double play, Spence completely imploded in the second inning.
