After a promising 10-10 start to the season in which Oakland received several strong pitching performances and a number of clutch hits, there was an unexpected sense of optimism surrounding the Athletics.It didn’t take long for reality to set in for the A’s, who lost 10-1 Wednesday in Boston to a surging Red Sox team at Fenway Park.
A historically bad A’s lineup was once again overwhelmed Wednesday. After recording just three hits over eight innings against Boston starter Nick Pivetta in Tuesday’s 6-1 loss, the A’s were held scoreless over five frames by rookie right-hander Josh Winckowski. Right-hander James Kaprielian’s struggles continued as the Red Sox scored in each of the first four innings and knocked the A’s starter out of the game with his team in a 6-0 hole. Kaprielian gave up seven hits and six walks in just 3 2/3 inninngs.
Aside from Davison’s home run, one of the few offensive highlights for Oakland Wednesday came in the fifth-inning when rookie third baseman Jonah Bride recorded his first major league hit. Bride, a 23rd round draft pick out of South Carolina in 2018 punched a single through the right side of the infield and reached second on a single from Tony Kemp, but was stranded in scoring position on a groundout from Ramón Laureano.
