Oakland A’s solid two-week stretch should help to avoid ignominious MLB record OAKLAND – The Oakland A’s got off to such an atrocious start to 2023 that there was legitimate talk as to whether they might set Major League Baseball’s modern-era record for most losses in a single season.Following what’s been Oakland’s best two-week stretch of the year, there’s no longer that concern.After being no-hit for five innings, the A’s scored four runs in the sixth and six more in the seventh on Sunday to earn a 10-6 win over the Los Angeles Angels and complete their first series sweep in close to three months.Ryan Noda and Seth Brown both hit two-run home runs in the sixth to give Oakland a 4-3 lead. After Angels outfielder Luis Rengifo hit a solo homer in the seventh to tie the game, a Tony Kemp single to center, along with a Los Angeles error, scored three more runs to give the A’s the lead for good before an announced crowd of 12.425 at the Coliseum.A two-RBI double by Shea Langeliers and an RBI infield single by Lawrence Butler rounded out the six-run inning, as the ...
