Matt Chapman on his spring debut
Media: Susan Slusser
PEORIA, Ariz. - Matt Chapman, one of the A’s key players this season and beyond, finally made his spring debut Sunday and deemed it better than he’d even expected.
The A’s third baseman missed a week and a half with right hand soreness, but a cortisone shot administered Feb. 22 did the trick. Chapman went 0 for 2 with two flyouts and a walk in the A’s game against the Padres, and he had no issues at all with the bruised right sesamoid bone; by his third at-bat, he wasn’t even thinking about it.
