ARLINGTON, Texas - Opening Night starter Kendall Graveman didn’t have any work to do in the A’s final four-game series at Texas - so he volunteered for some.
Each of the past two days, Graveman served as one of the visiting clubhouse attendants - picking up laundry, cleaning cleats, finding lost items, providing food and a host of other jobs. “It’s so I don’t drive myself crazy,” said Graveman, whose last start was Wednesday.
Lots of the players and coaches had fun with it, requesting that Graveman fetch different items for them or chiding him for losing articles of clothing.
