Giants make three errors, more miscues in 7-1 loss to A’s

Oakland scores all its runs in the third and fourth innings

Jake Peavy is charged with seven runs, only three earned

A’s have won first three games of Bay Bridge series

OAKLAND -- Giants right-hander Jake Peavy pointed emphatically at catcher Trevor Brown in a gesture of approval during the third inning Wednesday after getting Marcus Semien to hit what looked like a harmless-looking pop-up to shallow right field.

As Peavy turned back to the play, he watched the ball drop. And it set off an implosion.

Right fielder Mac Williamson and second baseman Ramiro Pena collided, resulting in a three-base error that started a barrage of bad Giants defense in the third and fourth innings.
