The A's knocked around CJ Wilson in the very first inning, capped off by a three run homerun by Kevin Kouzmanoff. Sadly, that would be the extent of the A's scoring. Texas would beat up on Dallas Braden; he gave up 4 runs in his 3 innings.
Brandon McCarthy looked pretty good in his 3 innings. Honestly, there wasn't much else to report! We do it again tomorrow, same time, same place.
