OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Nick Gordon had four hits, including his first home run in three weeks, and the Miami Marlins beat the Athletics 12-3 to end Oakland’s six-game winning streak Sunday. Josh Bell had a pair of RBI singles and Jonah Bride drove in two runs as the Marlins won for the third time in 12 games and avoided a series sweep. Miami got 14 hits and had eight players with at least one RBI, a stark difference from a day earlier when the Marlins’ bats were mostly muffled in a 20-4 loss to the A’s. “Super big,” Gordon said. “After last night, to bounce back like that and put it on them pretty good shows signs of a good team.” Brent Rooker, who homered twice in one inning during the blowout victory Saturday, had two hits and scored twice for Oakland. The game attracted a crowd of 12,212, the largest at the Coliseum since opening day. |
