Athletics vs. Padres – game summary – July 28, 2021

SAN DIEGO – Sean Manaea took the perfect game for the sixth inning, and Matt Chapman hit three sets to take Oakland Athletics to a 10-4 win over the San Diego Padres on Wednesday.

Manaea (8-6) kept Padres off track until he walked with former athlete Jurickson Profar in one-sixth. Pinch player Eric Hosmer then raised one of the low midfields to end Manaea’s bid for another career. The left-hander did not hit the Boston Red Sox on April 21, 2018.

Until Hosmer’s hit, presumably in the trade block, Padres hit just one ball from the inner field. It was Jake Cronenworth’s volleyball that went second to fifth.

Manaea hit nine in six innings and gave only one hit and one walk.

In his previous start, he reached the highest 13 of his career and gave just one run and three hits in seven innings in a 4-1 win over Seattle.

I just try to be consistent every time I go there, just a little more confidence in my stuff, “Manaea said. Go there and try to throw zeros in any way I can to help the boys win.

A 4-0 lead before throwing the field helped.

These guys got the lead in the first match, so I didn’t have to be too cute with anything, just go after the guys and let the defense take action. Just trust my stuff and attack your friends. There is no reason to be there trying to be perfect in everything, just go there and have them. That was almost it from the beginning, ”he said.

He’s good, Director Bob Melvin said. His fast ball sometimes plays like its upper 90s. He hides it. He has a lot coming towards you. He got a big swap, which is a separator, which makes his fast ball much better and his break ball is so much better now. When he throws strikes and gets ahead, throws a hard one like that, he has a tough guy to deal with Whether you’re right-handed or left-handed.

Elvis Andrus had three hits and two RBIs for A, who split the two-game series.

Blake Snell (4-4) had another short trip to San Diego, making seven runs and seven hits in four innings. The left walked four and hit one.

Snell struggled from the start by walking three of the first five strokes and then handing over three driving tests to Chapman, who raised A 4-0. Snell walked lead-based dough Mark Canha on four straight pitches and walked Matt Olson out one before Jed Lowrie’s sacrificial flight. As Sean Murphy walked, Chapman drove a 0-1 fast ball from the side of the second deck on the left field, his 13th.

Canha added RBI Singles in the second and fourth, and Andrus also had a basic RBI hit in the fourth. Andrus had a second RBI single in the seventh, with A scoring three runs with three hits and two errors to rise 10-0.

Austin Nola hit the RBI double in the seventh Padres. They added three songs for ninth, including Profar’s double and pinch Hitter Victor Caratin’s single.
