The bats went silent again.
The Oakland A’s were blanked by the Angels on Friday, by a 2-0 margin at the Coliseum.
The A’s had a nice week, bouncing back from a nine-game losing streak to win four out of five against the struggling Tigers, and along the way their lineup began to stir from its early slump. But tonight the offense disappeared once more, collecting just two hits and never even reaching third base.
Halos starter Chase Silseth made his MLB debut and breezed through six innings, and their bullpen had no trouble finishing it off.
