A’s stay unbeaten in Mike Fiers’ starts, top Orioles 3-2
BALTIMORE - While chasing the Astros in the AL West and the Yankees for the top wild-card spot, the A’s are also keeping an eye on Hurricane Florence and hoping none of their games against the league’s worst team get rained out.
On a day the team learned that top starter Sean Manaea is likely to be out for an entire year after shoulder surgery, ever-resilient Oakland beat the bedraggled Orioles 3-2 at Camden Yards. Mike Fiers, one of the four fill-in starters added to the rotation since March because of the devastation to Oakland’s rotation, allowed one run in sixth innings to earn his career-high 12th win.
The A’s are unbeaten in Fiers’ seven starts since he was acquired from Detroit on Aug.
