Sean Nolin got relatively high marks from his manager Tuesday night.
He didn’t give himself the same grades, however.
Nolin, who is in a late-season audition that will help determine if he’s in teh running for a spot in the Oakland rotation next spring, gave up five runs in five innings against Texas.
And while he didn’t take the loss in an 8-6 A’s defeat, he did let a 4-1 lead slip away in the fifth and sixth innings.
In particular he wasn’t happy with the two-run homer hit by the Rangers’ Mitch Moreland in the sixth that let Texas pull into a tie.
Nolin’s audition still a work in progress
