There’s rarely a dull inning with the Athletics, and this was indeed the case in tonight’s game against the Twins that went deep into extra innings. While Mike Fiers had a strong outing, he did not get a win as it was swept away quickly via the relief pitching that followed. This is not to say the bullpen was bad, the hitting was just better. Overall, the bullpen was stellar until the 12th inning when Blake Treinen gave up two walks and the go-ahead run to lose the game 3-4 and deny the A’s their fifth win in a row.
