Game #22: A’s rocked by Cleveland

I fell asleep twice during this game.

The Oakland A’s got rocked by the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday afternoon. They almost got shut out but managed a few runs at the end, taking a 7-3 loss and completing a weekend in which they were swept at home.

The day began with good news, as pitcher James Kaprielian was activated from the injured list to make the start for his season debut. However, it turned out to be a short outing for Kap, who still showed some rust to be shaken off. He battled through the first two innings with just one quick run crossing the plate, but in the 3rd he walked his first three batters to load the bases and was removed.
