Fresh off a dominant pitching performance and some clutch and timely hitting, the Athletics take on the Seattle Mariners in game three of a four game series at Seattle’s T-Mobile Park. A’s skipper Mark Kotsay sent 29-year-old righty Osvaldo Bido to the mound tonight against 26-year-old righty Bryce Miller for the Mariners.
Bido got off to a bit of a rough start. Victor Robles lined his first pitch of the night off the top of the left field wall, and he hit Julio Rodriguez in the ribcage with his second. He loaded the bases with a 4-pitch walk before even throwing his first strike.
