The A’s continued their strong push to the playoffs, earning a fifth straight win as they took the series opener in Baltimore. Mike Fiers improved to 5-0 with the club, allowing just one run — a Jonathan Villar home run — over six innings while striking out seven. Alex Cobb’s issues with a blister on his pitching hand continued as he exited after two scoreless innings. Matt Chapman, Khris Davis and Stephen Piscotty each knocked in a run in a three-run third inning.
