Just like the A’s won the other day, they lost to the Rangers 8-5 and it was a big inning that cost them. Edgar Gonzalez gave up six runs in the third inning in the beat down and it all came on seven hits and two walks. Of course Jost Outman was one of the relievers who shined and he did it with four shutout innings.
Kurt Suzuki went two for four with a double and an RBI. Ryan Sweeney tripled, drove in two runs and scored once. Gregorio Petit had a particularly rough game with two strikeouts in three at bats and he left five men on base.
Brett Anderson, who’s looked sharp so far this spring, gets the start tomorrow against the Indians. Michael Wuertz is also set to throw.
