A’s drop a close one, lose 2-0 to Royals

The A’s dropped Thursday’s game against the Kansas City Royals, losing 2-0 and not managing much of anything on offense.

Pitching (mostly) solid

Yesterday’s original starter Ken Waldichuk got the start today and pitched four clean innings before finally getting tagged for the game’s only two runs in the fifth. A double and single chased Waldichuk from the game, with Rico Garcia coming on in relief. He allowed the inherited runner to score after giving up a pair of singles.

That was all the damage done against the pitching staff today, though.
