The A’s couldn’t mount an offense to support Frankie Montas in a loss to the Rangers.
OAKLAND — The A’s continued to come up empty at the plate Saturday, wasting a strong performance from starter Frankie Montas and losing 2-0 to the Texas Rangers at the Coliseum before a crowd of 9,120.
Miller sliced a single to left, scoring Garcia. Willie Calhoun also tried to score, but was ruled out at the plate on Kemp’s throw to Murphy. On a crew chief review, it was ruled Murphy had illegally blocked the plate with his left leg rather than gave the runner a lane to home. That allowed Calhoun to score also and gave Miller a two-run single.
Brock Burke was the winning pitcher in relief for the Rangers, who improved to 5-9 while the A’s fell to 8-8. Matt Bush pitched the ninth for Texas, getting his first save. The A’s managed just three hits against four Texas pitchers.
