Determined to even up the Rivalry Series against former cross-bay neighbors, the San Francisco Giants, the Athletics face off against them at Oracle Park. Luis Severino took the mound today for the A’s against Landen Roupp from the Giants.
Both teams were relatively quiet until the bottom half of the seventh when two base hits and a walk for the Giants loaded the bases with one out. But then Luis Severino struck out both Jung Hoo Lee and Heliot Ramos swinging to end the inning and extinguish the jam.
Lawrence Butler doubled to open the fourth inning.
