Game #80: A’s lead all day but blow it at last minute

Saturday was the same game we’ve been watching for the the past two seasons.

The Oakland A’s scored in the 1st inning and then never even reached second base again, which gave the opponent plenty of time to mount a comeback. In the end, the Seattle Mariners walked off by a 2-1 margin, with Oakland’s bullpen taking a blown save and a loss.

The 1st inning went well! Tony Kemp led off with a walk, and Ramon Laureano singled to put runners on the corners. Sean Murphy came through with a sac fly to plate the run and put the A’s on top 1-0.
