Dodgers take the series finale over Athletics 8-2 in Los Angeles

The Oakland Athletics wrapped up their three-game series with the Los Angeles Dodgers tonight at Dodger Stadium in Chavez Ravine. A’s Manager Mark Kotsay sent lefty JP Sears (2-7, 4.10 ERA) to the mound to face a Dodgers team that didn’t seem to be able to miss anything they swung at last night and hit 4 homers in eight innings. Julio Urías, who had struggled early in his outings this season, logging an 11.40 ERA in the first inning took the mound for the Dodgers. It looked like he might continue that trend when with one out, Zach Gelof singled to left field and Ramon Laureano walked on four consecutive pitches.
