Athletics Turn Things Around | MLB News

The Athletics just pulled off a rare two-game win streak, knocking out the hot-streaking Red Sox — who’ve lost only three games since July 26th, all to Oakland. The secret? Starting strong: Henry Bolte’s early aggression — a first-pitch single, a bunt error, and a groundout that scored the first run — set the tone and gave the pitcher breathing room. Bolte’s been on fire lately, hitting .283 with two homers and five RBIs in his last 14 games, and his speed lifts the whole team. And the bullpen? Finally clicking: Elvis Alvarado, Brady Basso, and Hogan Harris combined for three clean innings, allowing just one hit, with each pitcher sticking to their role — seventh, eighth, and ninth — proving structure is key to bullpen consistency.
