A’s blown out again, fall to Dodgers 19-2
For the second time in two nights the A’s got punched in the mouth by the Los Angeles Dodgers, losing tonight in an embarrassing 19-2 contest that drops the Athletics back to the .500 mark for the first time since April 29th. Time to turn our sights on San Francisco.
The A’s were facing a favorable matchup on offense as the Dodgers had rookie right-hander Matt Sauer make his first career major league start. Things started well enough as back-to-back walks from Jacob Wilson and Tyler Soderstrom to start the game were soon followed by Shea Langeliers’ sixth double of the season, driving in Wilson:
