In a recent MLB game, Max Scherzer delivers an outstanding performance for the Oakland A's, while JP Sears struggles as the team faces the possibility of setting a record for intra-division futility.
Oakland Athletics’ Esteury Ruiz comes up short to catch the ball for an out on a triple by Texas Rangers’ Leody Taveras in the eighth inning of their MLB game at the Coliseum in Oakland, Calif., on Tuesday, Aug. 8, 2023. OAKLAND — Max Scherzer had six strikeouts and pitched three-hit ball over seven innings and the Texas Rangers extended their longest winning streak in seven years to nine games, beating the last-place Oakland Athletics 6-1 on Tuesday night.
Corey Seager had three hits including his 19th home run for the surging Rangers. Marcus Semien, Robbie Grossman and Sam Huff added two hits apiece. The A’s finish off their three-game series against the Rangers on Wednesday, and have 12 games left against AL West foes. The Rangers haven’t been to the playoffs since 2016 but have a strong chance to end that drought this season, especially after trading for Scherzer .
