Bats continue waking up
Things started out well enough as the A’s put two runners on in the first thanks to a pair of Cleveland errors. The club wouldn’t cash in quite yet though but it was a preview of things to come. They didn’t wait much longer as the club got on the board in the second inning after a Nick Allen triple and Darrel Hernaiz sac fly got the scoring started. Allen is fighting off Hernaiz for the shortstop gig and he had a big day at the plate, but more on Allen later.
