MIAMI (AP) — Gunnar Hoglund won his major league debut by allowing one run over six innings to lead the Athletics over Miami 6-1 on Friday night and extend the Marlins' losing streak to six.
A 25-year-old right-hander who pitched at the University of Mississippi, Hoglund (1-0) struck out seven, walked none and allowed six hits, including Dane Myers' leadoff home run in the sixth.
Hoglund was selected by Toronto 19th overall in the 2021 amateur draft and was among the prospects acquired by the A's in the March 2022 trade that sent third baseman Matt Chapman to the Blue Jays.
