JP Sears throws five shutout innings
JP Sears #38 of the Oakland Athletics pitches during the first inning against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park on May 31, 2024 in Atlanta, Georgia. OAKLAND – The booms, cracks and thuds echoing around the Oakland Coliseum weren’t Independence Day fireworks going off in the East Bay.
With Oakland attempting to close out its first sweep since the club beat Miami in three straight in early May, the left hander Sears got the start for the A’s and was seeking his first victory since May 25. The A’s, wearing special red, white and blue July 4 hats, fared far better when they got two runners on against Angels starter Roansy Contreras with top hitters Miguel Andujar and Brent Rooker up to bat in the bottom of the inning.
