ANAHEIM -- The top of the A's order used a little togetherness Friday while helping to open a big early lead against the Angels.
Matt Joyce hit a two-run home run in the second inning off Angels starter Parker Bridwell, and Marcus Semien followed with a shot of his own as the A's posted a five-spot to take a 6-0 lead.

It was the second time the A's had delivered back-to-back home runs this season, and both have come against the Angels.
