Game #36: A’s lose 9-1 in nightcap, earn split in doubleheader

A sweep today would have been fun, but a split will do!

The Oakland A’s lost the nightcap of their Saturday doubleheader against the Angels at the Coliseum, falling 9-1 in a game that went out of control quickly and never got back on track.

The A’s began the day with a dramatic comeback walk-off victory in the first half of the doubleheader, and you can click here to read the full recap of that contest. That opening win guaranteed at least a split in today’s twin-bill, which would be a productive result against one of the hottest teams in the league.
