On the Oakland A’s podcast with Titus:

#1 Titus, Saturday the Oakland A’s got a lot of runs particularly in the second inning when they scored seven runs against one of the best teams in the Majors the Baltimore Orioles.

#2 All 19 of the A’s runs were scored by the home run which when you think of it was an tremendous effort by the long ball.

#3 Brent Rooker and Max Schuemann both hit three run homers, the A’s had five home runs total in the 19-8 landslide. The A’s had been struggling for some run production in previous games and this might be a start of their ability to get around the ball.

#4 The A’s previous to this series with the Orioles shut out the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday and Thursday by identical scores 5-0. Do you believe that this was some carry over from that series to this series against the Orioles a close 3-2 loss on Friday to the 19-8 laugher on Saturday?

#5 The A’s give it a go and try and win game three of the series at the Coliseum against the Orioles. The Orioles after that loss Saturday might be out for revenge after getting beat in that landslide.
