New York Yankees Aaron Judge is caught in a rundown by the Oakland A’s second baseman Max Schuemann in the bottom of the second inning at Yankee Stadium in New York on Thu Apr 25, 2024 (AP News photo)

On the A’s podcast with Jeremiah:

#1 Oakland A’s closer Mason Miller retired four Yankee hitters in including Yankee slugger Aaron Judge to shut the door on the Yankees for a 3-1 win in New York on Thursday night.

#2 The A’s got offensive help when Nick Allen and Tyler Nevin both slugged third inning home runs off of Yankee starter Nestor Cortes in a three run inning that turned out to be all the A’s runs they needed for the win.

#3 One thing that can be said about Miller he can heave he throws over 100 MPH and struck out Jose Trevino the his first batter he faced when he came into relieve TJ McFarland.

#4 Miller pitched his eighth consecutive scoreless inning of relief. Miller has put out 31 of his last 38 hitters and has struck out 22 of those 38 batters. Miller is really putting up some Fireman of the Year numbers at this stage of the season.

#5 The A’s open up a series in Baltimore on Friday night. The A’s will start RHP Ross Stripling (0-5 ERA 5.34) whose looking for his first win. The Orioles will start RHP Corbin Burnes (3-0 ERA 2.76). Like the Yankees the Orioles are hot. They’re in first place in the AL East 16-8, they have won and have won eight of their last ten games.
