SAN FRANCISCO — The game plan is pretty simple for Kendall Graveman when things are rolling for him.
He throws his sinkers, lots of them, and the movement he typically has on the pitch keeps hitters beating ground balls into the earth and generating zeroes on the scoreboard.
On Thursday night, the A’s right-hander certainly looked to be knocking the cob webs off. The end result was an 11-2 Oakland loss in the Bay Bridge Series finale, after the Giants tagged him for seven runs in just two innings.
That left Graveman in a predictable mood afterward.
