Sushi aside, the A's are probably looking back on their trip in Japan with little fondness. In the two-game series against the Mariners in Tokyo that formally kicked off the MLB season, the A's didn't just lose both games. They also found out that top pitching prospect Jesus Luzardo would be shut down with a shoulder injury and lost Matt Olson to a hamate bone fracture after the first baseman fouled a ball off of his hand. All in all, a rough go.
But the baseball season, after all, is a long one. There are still 160 games left in the regular season.
