A’s top Tigers for second win of season

The A’s got back into the win column Saturday morning, beating the Detroit Tigers 4-0 on the opposing turf to secure their second win of the season.

The club didn’t wait around to get the scoring started against Tigers starter Kenta Maeda. Second baseman Zack Gelof walked and advanced to second on a groundout to put himself in scoring position, but the extra base didn’t matter as last year’s All-Star Brent Rooker blasted his second 2-run home run in as many days, giving Oakland the quick lead:

Another day, another two-run homer for Rooker pic.
