Happy Monday, Athletics Nation!
The A’s summer explosion on offense subsided somewhat through their latest homestand, which saw the team go 3-4 and drop their series against the Tigers yesterday in what I would call a real “unraveler” of a game, to noun a verb. I did appreciate the collected manner in which Ross Stripling was savaged by the Tigers’ bats in the eighth; those were some hard knocks through which to keep one’s chin up. His is quite strong, might I add.
With yesterdays loss, the A’s dropped back to 20 below .
