Sacramento A’s podcast Tony Harvey:

#1 How did Lawrence Butler had hit well against the Boston Red Sox in the last series but Friday night struggled against Detroit pitching going 0-4.

#2 What kind of outing did A’s starting pitcher Jeffrey Springs have against the Tigers, pitching four innings allowing four hits and two runs.

#3 Did Nick Kurtz was the lead off hitter with two at bats and walked twice just couldn’t get the long ball going.

#4 Talk about how this A’s line up looks without Zack Gelof, Brent Rooker, Shea Langeliers, Joshua Kuroda Grauer.

#5 Of A’s players such as Lawrence Butler, Nick Kurtz, Jacob Wilson they needed their bats Friday night but they were silenced by Tigers pitching, and A’s starter Jeffrey Springs pitched well allowing four hits and two earned runs but the A’s bullpen later allowed 11 more runs in the 13-1 loss ?
