Fresh off of an exciting comeback victory over Ohtani, Trout & Company on Opening Day, The A’s and Angels were back at it Saturday at the Oakland Coliseum. Lefty Patrick Sandoval took mound for the Angels against A’s Righty Shintaro Fujinami. “Fuji’s” first major league start began with two strikeouts and a soft groundout to some of the most dangerous hitters in baseball. Unfortunately, his masterly over the Angels bats did not last long.
The Angels got on the board first against Fujinami in the top of the third, when Luis Rengifo walked, Gio Urshela singled. Logan O’Hoppe doubled scoring Urshela.
