Welp.
The Oakland A’s lost again on Thursday, completing a four-game sweep by the Seattle Mariners at the Coliseum. The A’s took a lead this time but blew it in the 6th inning, ending in a 6-5 defeat.
It couldn’t get much more deflating. After three quiet losses the past three nights, Oakland looked like they might finally have a good day and salvage the finale. All-Star starter Chris Bassitt made his triumphant return to the mound after a scary injury last month, and he tossed three scoreless innings while the A’s lineup took an early lead.
