Michael Wuertz wasted little time letting the Twins back into the game, offering up a solo home run to tie the game in the eighth . Then entering in the ninth in a non-save situation was Andrew Bailey. Bailey was roughed up for three runs and the A’s went on to lose 6-3.

Dallas Braden held the twins to two runs through seven innings.

The A’s draft was again the highlight of the day thanks to another loss. Several top-prospects fell into the lap of the Athletics, mainly because of signability concerns. Lets see if the A’s can snag at least two, preferably catcher Max Stassi and Samuel Dyson, a right handed flame thrower.
