#1 Philadelphia Phillies starter Tyler Phillips pitched into the seventh inning against the Oakland A’s allowing six hits and four runs, striking out five batters. The A’s couldn’t figure out the Phillies pitching and dropped Saturday’s contest 11-5.

#2 On the other hand the Phillies hitters solved the A’s pitching slugging for 11 runs including a four run eighth inning that put the game out of reach. The Phils got home run help from Bryce Harper and Trea Turner.

#3 The Phillies in all hit four home runs and Spence absorbed most of the damage in the early innings of his start giving up five hits and six earned runs in three and two thirds innings of work.

#4 The A’s Brent Rooker provided most of the offense with a home run, double and a single. It wasn’t enough but Rooker never gave up at the plate.

#5 The A’s will try and salvage this series in game 3 against the Phillies. Starting pitcher for the Phillies hasn’t been announced the A’s will be leaning on starter and RHP Joey Estes (3-4, ERA 5.53). First pitch 10:35AM PT. Can the A’s do what they did in game one and get some offense and some pitching to have a shot at winning this series?
