The Oakland A’s snapped a three-game Cactus League losing streak on Wednesday, and they did so in a big way.
The A’s lineup exploded in a 10-5 victory over the Kansas City Royals, and there were even more positive takeaways than that score might suggest.
The top highlights came on offense, where the A’s did most of their damage in the middle innings. From the 4th-6th combined they put nine runs on the board, including a bunch off former teammate Mike Minor, who signed with the Royals this winter as a free agent.
Oakland had a couple of bubble roster candidates at the bottom of the order, and both had great days.
