It’s deja vu all over again.
The Oakland A’s played the Seattle Mariners on Sunday, and for the second straight day the A’s won by a score of exactly 3-2.
Whereas Saturday’s game required extra innings, this time the A’s got the job done in regulation, thanks to a three-run homer by Ramon Laureano in the 5th and another strong pitching performance from both the rotation and bullpen.

The larger problem of the A’s dormant lineup didn’t go away in this game, as they collected just eight baserunners (five hits, two walks, and a HBP) and went 1-for-7 with runners in scoring position.
