The A’s clubhouse had a nightclub feel, complete with flashing lights that alternated between a spectrum of colors and music being blasted at a near-deafening decibel.
“The vibe is good right now, and it’s growing,” starting pitcher Jharel Cotton said. “I think we’re confident, and we’re only going to get that much better.
“I just love it.”
That’s what a four-game sweep of the vaunted Yankees will do for a team, and that’s exactly the feat the A’s secured on a scorching hot Sunday afternoon with a 4-3 victory in front of a sun-soaked crowd of more than 34,000 at the Coliseum.
