Game #55: One big inning sinks A’s again
Photo by Lachlan Cunningham/Getty ImagesThe theme of the Oakland A’s weekend series against the Los Angeles Angels was the Big Inning, and unfortunately the Angels created the bigger one on Sunday.
The Halos put up four runs in the 2nd inning and the A’s couldn’t catch up for the rest of the afternoon, falling 4-2 and settling for a split in their four-game matchup at the Coliseum.
On Thursday the A’s won while scoring all their runs in the 6th inning, and on Saturday the Angels did the same thanks solely to a crooked number in the 5th. The Halos took another turn today, tallying four in the 2nd inning and then cruising the rest of the way.
