Jeffrey Springs bounced back with a masterclass on the mound, tossing five and two-thirds innings and allowing just two runs after a rehab stint that turned into the perfect reset. Struggling with a brutal stretch that ballooned his ERA over six, Springs dialed in by boosting his changeup usage—keeping hitters off-balance and striking out key batters. Manager Mark Kotsay raved about his command and clutch escapes, including a pivotal double play fueled by the changeup. Though the A’s bullpen ultimately collapsed, giving up seven runs in the eighth, Springs’ performance was a bright spot—a reminder of resilience and grit as the team refuses to quit.
