Game #151: Liam Hendriks Gives up the Win in the 9th

Leading the pack in the Wild Card Race, these amazing Oakland Athletics are coming off quite a week and looking to continue their domination. Facing Kansas City with a record of 55-95, that record is no guarantee that a win is in the bag. And Kansas City let the A’s know they were not done playing ball for the year. The Royals meant business and showed it right away in the first inning, getting the best of Tanner Roark who was taking the mound against Kansas City’s Glenn Sparkman. In a sea-saw battle, the Athletics fell to defeat in the 9th inning, ending their six game streak.
