ANAHEIM - On a night when little Oakland offense was in evidence, Dustin Garneau fared well at the plate and behind the plate.
Garneau, who is from nearby San Pedro and lives down the street from Angel Stadium in Orange, hit his first homer as a member of the A’s - making him the only man to cross the plate for Oakland in a 3-1 loss to the Angels.
No one else did much apart from striking out. Oakland faced left-hander Andrew Heaney, making his third start since coming off the DL, and Heaney, who’d allowed nine runs in his first 10 innings, allowed just the one run in six innings.
