Game #81: A’s lose game, series, star pitcher, and first half of season

Things somehow keep getting worse for the Oakland A’s.

They lost again on Sunday, by a 2-1 margin to the Seattle Mariners, but that’s barely a footnote at this point, more of a daily expectation. This afternoon added injury to insult.

They mustered just one run on four hits, which is a typical output for this lineup. They lost the series at T-Mobile Park, three outta four. And at the halfway point of the season, they’re still last place in the entire majors with a 26-55 record, still on pace for the worst campaign in Oakland history.
