CLEVELAND — The A’s have become notorious for late-inning comebacks over the past two weeks, but this deficit was much too large.
After keeping it close for most of the night, one bad inning by Emilio Pagan allowed things to get out of hand as the A’s fell in a 10-4 blowout to the Indians Friday night.
On what was fireworks night at Progressive Field, the A’s were the ones who started things off with a bang as Dustin Fowler led the game off with a solo home run to well up the right field bleachers. The home run traveled a projected 467 feet, tied for seventh-longest in baseball in baseball this season.
