On the Oakland A’s podcast with Jerry:
The Oakland A’s Sean Manaea picked up win #10 (10-7) as he didn’t surrender a run on five Toronto Blue Jay hits, going six innings, one run earned, and five strikeouts. Manaea had a lot of his pitches working for him on Wednesday to keep the Blue Jays off balance and was also able to keep runners off base.
A’s reliever JD Wendelken came in to relieve for Manaea in the seventh loaded the bases, but got the third out and came away unscathed except for one run in the 8-3 five-run win for Oakland. Part of the success for the A’s in July was their lineup hit consistently with an average of .290. They were able to make a number of comebacks in late innings.
The A’s have Thursday off and have three games with the Detroit Tigers at the Coliseum starting Friday night. For the Tigers, Blaine Hardy (4-3), and for the A’s, Brett Anderson (2-3), to open the series.
