The Oakland Athletics rallied from a 6-0 deficit, but were unable to complete the comeback in a 10-7 loss to the Minnesota Twins.
Mark Kotsay chose again to go with Austin Pruitt as an opener for Hogan Harris and that decision didn’t go well. Carlos Correa led off the game with a single and then moved to second on a walk by Donovan Solano. Pruitt got Byron Buxton to line out to Jace Peterson at third and then struck out Max Kepler for the second out. However, he wouldn’t escape as Kyle Farmer split the gap in right for a two-run double to stake the Twins to an early lead.
