The Athletics won their third game in a row Tuesday afternoon at Hohokam Stadium, topping the rival Seattle Mariners by a 4-2 final score.
Left-hander Alex Wood got the start today, his third of the spring (though his second one didn’t count because of the rainout). Looking to get things tuned up for the fast-approaching season, Wood turned in four scoreless innings, allowing just two hits but also hitting a pair of batters. A quality outing for a veteran like Wood during spring training.
On the hitting side of things the A’s put runners in scoring position in each of the first two frames but couldn’t break through against Mariners starter Bryce Miller.
