An off-night for A’s, Chapman in 7-1 loss to Mariners
By Susan Slusser Published 9:48 pm PDT, Thursday, August 30, 2018 After two consecutive weeks without a day off, and with an injury-riddled rotation struggling to provide enough innings, the A’s look tuckered out. Even budding star third baseman Matt Chapman was off his game Thursday when Oakland returned to the Coliseum only to be blasted by the team trailing the A’s in the wild-card race.
