Walk This Way

The Athletics beat the Guarindians 17-0 Thursday afternoon, Oakland knocking out 14 hits and drawing then walks. Matt Chapman drew five walks, but missed tying the record for walks in the game when he struck out in his last plate appearance. He drew more walks than the entire Cleveland lineup, which drew four.

Chris Bassitt lowers his ERA to 3.06 and raises his record to 12-3. We’ll see what the AL Cy Young race looks like after Lance Lynn faces the Yankees this evening.
