The A’s blew an excellent chance to collect a sweep today, blowing a late lead to drop the series finale to the Angels 8-5.
The pitching matchup for today’s finale was A’s rookie righty Joey Estes versus eight-year veteran Carson Fulmer. Both teams threatened over the first couple frames but came up short, partially due to the defense of the A’s:

Welcome back Toro! We missed you.
That wasn’t the only nice defensive play the A’s made early today:
