导出博客文章OAKLAND, Calif. -- Even before the video review, Eduardo Rodriguez realized
speedy Marcus Semien was safe at first base.Rodriguezs no-hit bid for the Boston
Red Sox was broken up after a replay reversal with two outs in the eighth
inning, and Khris Davis hit a game-ending double in the ninth that sent the
Oakland Athletics to a 1-0 victory Sunday.Retiring Red Sox slugger David Ortiz
offered Rodriguez a hug after he came off the field and these words: You did the
best job you could do -- buen trabajo in Spanish, Rodriguez recalled.Trying to
complete Bostons first no-hitter in eight years, Rodriguez stuck out his right
leg to knock down Semiens grounder in the eighth. The left-hander had to search
for the ball in the dirt on the mound before scooping it up and making a quick
throw to first.Semien initially was ruled out by umpire Laz Diaz. As manager Bob
Melvin challenged the call, which was overturned after a brief review that
lasted approximately 19 seconds.Replays clearly showed Semien was safe, just as
Rodriguez knew they would. And the infield single ended his run at a no-hitter
in frustrating fashion.Youve got to ask everybody whos lost a no-hitter how it
feels, said Rodriguez, who came the closest he ever has to throwing a
no-no.Rodriguez got the final out of the eighth, keeping the game scoreless.
After that, his day was done.He was outstanding and unfortunately he gets a ball
off his shoe that he cant seemingly find, and thats the end of a potentially
history-making day here, Red Sox manager John Farrell said.In the ninth, Brock
Holt misplayed Davis double in deep left field for an error that allowed Danny
Valencia to score from first base.Valencia drew a leadoff walk against Craig
Kimbrel (2-4), and the As averted a three-game sweep.Oakland snapped a five-game
losing streak overall, and a nine-game skid to Boston.Ryan Madson (5-4) pitched
the ninth for the win.Oakland has not been held without a hit since four Orioles
pitchers turned the trick on July 13, 1991 -- the longest active streak in the
majors.Boston right-hander Rick Porcello carried a bid for a perfect game into
the sixth inning of an 11-2 victory Saturday. Jake Smolinski broke that one up
with a double.Jon Lester tossed the most recent no-hitter for the Red Sox on May
19, 2008, against Kansas City.Ortiz received a standing ovation before his
initial at-bat, when he struck out swinging to end the first.He went 0 for 2
with two strikeouts and two walks after going 5 for 6 with five RBI in the first
two games of the series.Itd be nice if he took a day off, Melvin joked before
the game. Hes performing as well as he ever has.For the upcoming interleague
series at San Diego, Big Papi will be available to pinch hit but Farrell has no
plans to use him on defense.After Boston outscored Oakland 27-4 over the
previous two games, neither team could capitalize Sunday until the very end.The
Red Sox had scored at least 11 runs in all five previous meetings this
season.Oaklands first win in six tries against the Red Sox meant the As avoided
going winless for the fourth time against an AL team in one season. They went
0-11 against Baltimore in 1978, 0-7 versus Cleveland in 1995 and 0-6 when facing
the Indians in 1994.As starter Kendall Graveman struck out seven in 6 1/3 sharp
innings.You know theyre going to put some good swings on you and today a couple
of balls were hit hard right at people, and that helped us, he said.Dustin
Pedroia has an 11-game hitting streak and has hit in 20 straight against the
As.MONCADAS FIRSTSCuban star Yoan Moncada made his major league debut Friday,
got his first hit and RBI with a run-scoring double Saturday, then was picked
off and committed an error at third base Sunday.His glove came through when it
mattered behind Rodriguez: Moncada snagged Billy Butlers hard liner to start the
seventh.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: Rookie OF Andrew Benintendi (left knee sprain)
played catch for the first time and has taken some dry swings. ... RHP Clay
Buchholz will start Tuesday at San Diego in place of Steven Wright, who will
travel with the team with plans for a second opinion on his injured pitching
shoulder. ... RHP Koji Uehara, on the disabled list since July 20 with a right
pectoral strain, is scheduled to be activated Monday and available as the first
option out of the bullpen as soon as Tuesday, Farrell said.Athletics: Rehabbing
pitchers Felix Doubront (left elbow) and Chris Bassitt (right elbow) were
scheduled to play catch out to 90 feet Monday as they each recover from Tommy
John surgery.UP NEXTRed Sox: LHP Drew Pomeranz (2-3, 4.06 ERA) faces his former
Padres club on Monday in San Diego. Pomeranz was traded by the Padres on July
14.Athletics: RHP Raul Alcantara will make his major league debut Monday against
the visiting Los Angeles Angels.
