On the Oakland A’s podcast with Jerry Feiteberg:

#1 The Oakland A’s are getting tired of other teams taking out the broom as the A’s were in another sweep. This time by the Boston Red Sox in a 7-3 loss at Fenway Park.

#2 The loss represents the A’s six straight loss as they’re 0-6 on this current road trip. It has been a tough go as A’s manager Bob Melvin tries to figure all this out.

#3 Amongst those struggling is Oakland A’s starter Mike Fiers, who pitched five innings and gave up three runs on five hits.

#4 Fiers has given up the big fly this time to the Red Sox’s Mitch Moreland, who hit his fifth homer of the season over the Green Monster and it was Fiers’ ninth home run surrendered.

#5 On Friday, the A’s will try it all over again as they’ll open up a three-game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The A’s will start Brett Anderson (3-2, 4.35 ERA) and the Pirates will start Joe Musgrove (1-2, 1.54 ERA).
