- Chris Smith: 6 ip, 4 Ks, 2 BB
- Sean Doolittle: 1 ip, 2 Ks, 0 BB
- Tucker Healy: 1 ip, 0 Ks, 0 BB
- Simon Castro: 1 ip, 1 K, 1 BB
The starter was the 36-year-old Smith, who spent a couple months with the A’s at the end of 2016 and pitched surprisingly well. Next up was Doolittle, in Nashville on an injury rehab assignment.
