Overview

  • Oakland clinched the series with a 1-0 win Thursday at Yankee Stadium, marking the A’s first series victory in the Bronx since 2016.
  • Jeffrey Springs carried a no-hit bid into the seventh and finished seven scoreless innings with one hit allowed before two relievers closed a combined one-hitter.
  • Ben Rice broke up the no-hitter with a seventh-inning single, but the Yankees finished with one hit and have gone 17 innings without a run across the final two games.
  • Ryan Weathers logged eight innings of one-run ball with seven strikeouts in the loss, as Yankees starters have allowed three or fewer runs in all 12 games to open the season.
  • After the game, New York recalled right-hander Luis Gil from Triple-A and designated Rule 5 pick Cade Winquest for assignment, with Gil set for his season debut Friday against the Rays.
