LOS ANGELES – The A’s took the field Tuesday night with 100 games under their belt this season, but game No. 101 felt like the beginning of a new, unknown chapter.
It’s tough to know what to expect from a team after it trades away its No. 2 starter, its closer and its No. 3 hitter, as Oakland has done in the span of six days.
But the Post-Trade Era of the 2015 A’s got off to a heartening start with a 2-0 victory over the Dodgers behind Sonny Gray’s three-hitter.
Talk about the right day for the A’s to have their ace on the mound in dominant form.
