The A’s turned in a really backwards effort on Tuesday: Alex Wood was magnificent, and their bullpen conceded a late lead.
Through the first 7.2 innings of the game it looked like the A’s were on their way to an impressive shutout with Wood getting his second victory of the season. Instead, Corey Seager had other plans. He turned a 2-0 deficit into a 3-2 lead with one swing of the bat depositing a ball into the right center stands off Lucas Erceg. In the end, the A’s lost 4-2 in a game they let slip right through their hands with their offense falling flat.
