With the month of September quickly passing us by, the Oakland Athletics entered tonight with just three more chances to add to their feather-light win column. That’s now down to two.
Opening their final series of the season, the A’s didn’t show much of their late-season progress on any sides of the ball. Offensively, Brent Rooker knocked in the first and only A’s run of the game with an RBI double in the 3rd inning. After that, it was mostly crickets out of the team’s lineup.
On the pitching side, Ken Waldichuk started things off with some solid Ken-ergy, pitching a quick couple of innings.
