Why pitching to Vladimir Guerrero Jr. made A's Brett Anderson feel old

The A's can't seem to figure out how to defeat the Blue Jays. Toronto is currently 5-0 against Oakland this season following a 7-1 win on Saturday.

During a postgame interview, when asked about why the Jays are being a "thorn in the side" of the Green and Gold, manager Bob Melvin said it simple enough, the other team was playing better -- no sugar coating it there.

Brett Anderson got starting honors for the A's where in 4.1 innings he gave up six runs on 10 hits with two walks and two strikeouts. Not the strongest of numbers, but he did do something nobody else has done before.
