This was a game of extremes. 29 hits. 17 runs. 1 “error” but about 5 important defensive miscues. 13 LOB for the Tigers, 10 for the A’s. 3 hours and 58 minutes. But after it all, Oakland emerged on top. The Matts couldn’t score enough to counter the Daniels, but a Jed came through in the end.
In a sign of things to come, the game started 15 minutes late due to a rain delay. The field was slick, and the slow start would just get slower as the game went on.

Canha made a perfect throw to nab Alex Presley trying to stretch a double into a triple in the 1st.
