The A’s just keep on winning as they beat the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 in the first game of the home stand.
Righty James Kaprielian got the ball to start this game and was more than solid for the club. Kap held down the potent Tampa Bay lineup to zero runs through five innings, continuing a string of solid starts for him. The A’s we’re hoping for just this heading into the season and Kaprielian might have turned a corner and is claiming back his spot long going forward.
As good as Kap was on the mound, the bats were oppositely just as cold.
