The A’s dropped Game 2 in Sacramento with a thud—a 6-2 loss to the D-Backs headlined by defensive disasters, bad umpiring, and an emotional ejection from Mark Kotsay. JT Ginn couldn’t find the zone, the defense couldn’t hold the ball, and the umpire couldn’t locate a strike zone if it came with a GPS. The A’s gave Arizona extra outs, and they cashed in. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. delivered the dagger, while the A’s bats left runners begging for help.
The night took a bizarre turn in the 7th when Langeliers and Kurtz collided on a pop-up that dropped, Perdomo stole a base without a throw, and Kotsay blew up after another horrendous missed call. Even with Zac Gallen bending but not breaking through 6+ innings of work, the A’s couldn’t claw back. We break down the messy details, the troubling defensive trends, and what this means heading into the rubber match on the next Locked On A’s.
