On the Oakland A’s podcast with Jerry:

1 The A’s really struggled today getting dominated in Cleveland 8-0 they set a record for the most strikeouts in a series eclipsing a record held since 1913

2  A’s starter Jharel Cotton had some success to start Thursday’s game but eventually needed some relief after Cleveland’s hitting started to take wing

3 On Wednesday a huge contrast the A’s got good pitching from A’s starter Sean Manaea went seven innings, three hits, and gave up a run that was a homer the only run for Cleveland.

4. The A’s Chad Pinder is had a good Wednesday hitting two homers and helped the A’s win by two runs 3-1
