Last night we saw how good the Oakland A’s look when everything goes right. Thursday brought a reminder of how bad any team can look when everything falls apart at once.
No part of the A’s roster found any success this afternoon, as they dropped a 8-3 decision to the Texas Rangers to wrap up a series loss at the Coliseum against the last-place club in their division.
Oakland has gotten superb starting pitching lately, from all five members of their rotation including Sean Manaea. Especially Manaea, in fact, as he posted a 1.13 ERA in five June starts.
