JP Sears is going to take the ball in the opener against the Brewers. He's been outstanding recently for the green and go well, Chris , he's been the pillar of the starting rotation. Well, he has a tough team to contend with in the Milwaukee Brewers who are having one of the best seasons in major league baseball, Aurio fouls it back. We've got early action here at the Coliseum. Go to work left hander right in front of the old man. You gotta love that at a boy on the ground is short. Schuman throws to first. Chio is beaten by a step comes Blake Perkins good to have him back limited time on the injured list with that calf strain. Another 32 basketball bounced towards short scans. There has it and across the diamond in time for the second out William Contreras coming up another payoff swing and a miss got him up and away the fastball at 92 Contreras and the Brewers go 123 at the end of his last two starts. This is the kind of guy in the Brewers thought they were getting when they traded with Tampa Bay first five starts. He was 0 to 2 of the five, a but his last two have been outstanding. A 146, a, the right fielder. Lawrence Butler had an amazing month of July 10 homers hit 363. He's cooled off in August sends a charge to right center field. That ball is carrying Perkins watches it. Lawrence Butler, his 14th home run of the year and the start this Friday night scoring early , no doubt when he made contact , it jumped in a hurry and now here's Brent Rooker and foul it back and a nice catch. And it's the same dude, the same left hander twice about it. I tell you something just gives me the feeling that his day is not done. And that's a walk for Rooker and that'll bring miguel on too hard to the plate. It's amazing when you look at it. I told you he wasn't done. I told you he wasn't done. Oh, my goodness. This is incredible. I can't, I can't same expression back to back hits for the crew 1st and 2nd. Nobody out now for Hoskins and the Brewers set up now for a potential big inning if Hoskins can come through and he is due Hoskins left field back and it is gone. Rhys Hoskins with two strikes, delivers a three run blast and it is a big early blast here in the bay area for Reece and the Brew crew. And now here's Joey Ortiz and still nobody out in the inning. This is driven out to left center field poked really well, but days back track back to back Ortiz with his ninth of the year. It's a solo shot in the Brewers up 4 to 1 and Brewers fans that are here in the Bay area tonight are making their presence felt and it's been five straight hits against Sears to open up the Brewers half of the second one away. Now for Jackson Chio comes to the plate for the second time today and a bullet into the cap in left center field. Monasterio makes the turn as the ball gets away from Ando hard Monasterio chugging around third. He'll score. It's a five run second inning and the Brewers lead it 5 to 1 1st out in the inning. We'll bring up the center fielder. JJ got him looking with sweeper and JJ gets run up to out for Miguel and you are the right handers 11 hit on the ground to short tough play. Adam ranging to his left. What a pick Ws throws bounced. It got him. Willie adam. Spectacular. Oh, he went hard up the middle to take one away from Miguel and Duar and that ends the inning. So the Brewers have a man in scoring position with two outs and that brings up Jackson Chio for a third time at the top of the order. Chio is up there hacking to left center field. That's headed towards the gap. It's going to be off the wall. Frelich scores, Chio in the second base. He's got an RB I double the Brewers lead it six to one. Jackson's got another hit and the Brewers have another run. Blake Perkins, the center fielder just trying to join the hit parade. Perkins ground ball towards the middle knocked down and the ball gets away is going to try and score. He will Perkins with an RB I single Brewers score on an error for the second time. They lead it 7 to 1. So the bases loaded now for her, this could be dangerous for the 3 to 2 offering and Hernes takes that will bring home a run and Savalli wild on that pitch, Hernes had to move out of the way. Now, 7 to 2, maybe the last hitter for a Savalli got a lefty due up next, got him through the sweeper. That's out. Number one, let him have it right here. One out bases loaded. Looks like that's what's going to happen. It's Butler homered back in the first 12 pitch ground ball that kicks off of Savalli's glove. He flips to first and he will complete the play, but it does bring home Brown for the third run for the A's now 7 to 3 an RB I for Lawrence Butler and a nice play by Savalli to recover, but Pat Murphy's going to extend him. He's going to let him have Rooker here, the 10 pitch drilled into right field. Frelick going over and back towards the line. Sal makes the running grab big play by Frelick in right. He got a great jump and Savalli gives up just the two runs in the fourth back to the top of the order Jackson Chios two for three with an RB I double two curve sail to center, but they will have this one and there's another 123 innings. So Ross Stripling has done his job settling down Milwaukee. He's retired seven in a row. Stripling back out there as the long man facing 23 and four starting with Blake Perkins, who's one for three on the evening, slow rolling ground ball to short Schuman good throw to first and Perkins is retired. Stric delivers that's one liner caught, shut off. Nice play to his right by Seth Brown and there are two away reaction by Brown making the play at his ankles. Stripling holds it on his belt still holding. Now he's ready. 32 pitch and he missed fastball low. And so the Brewers finally have a base runner against Ross Strier. Back to back walks with two outs. Stripling went through the lineup one time clean and now he's got to deal with Rhys Hoskins already has a three run home in the and that one worked. Stripling strikes out Hoskins and another good inning of relief work for Ross Stripling 7 to 3 Brewers Max Schuman, the rookie to greet him. He drops a bunt, third base side , a good one, barehanded pick pouts, but his off balance throw to first is wide and it rolls into the ample foul ground and Schuman turning second all the way to third throw from Hoskins tag applied out. Wow, unbelievable. He's saying no, it wasn't. And they may take a look at this. It honestly looked like Ortiz's left wrist hit the, uh I don't know what you call the oven mitt hanging out of the back pocket. It's going to be a tough call. The runner is out. Oakland loses their bases loaded. Now for Gary Sanchez infield, up for Oakland base is full of Brewers and a chance to put an exclamation point on this ball game to right center. It is down. A base hit, one run is in two runs are in. Here comes Adam score, Sanchez Motoring for third. He clears them with the bases loaded. Triple oh, the big fella picking them up and putting them down and now the infield stays in still nobody out. And Hoskins the batters now, Hoskins to left that's going to be caught tagging and scoring is Sanchez another RB I for hoskins 11 three goff at first on a fielder's choice for Darrell. Her names to right field. Sal Frelick turns on the Jets and makes the catch a lot of room to cover. Sal Frelick covered it and Then some, a one popped him up right side of the infield Rhys Hoskins calling for it in fair territory. Makes the catch in this ball game is over Brewers come into Oakland and they take game one with a big offensive display, 11 runs on 14 hits and they take down the A's 11 to 3.
