Despite another Brent Rooker home run, the Oakland A's saw their impressive streak of not losing a series end at five on Sunday after the Los Angeles Dodgers escaped with a 3-2 victory in their last-ever trip to the Oakland Coliseum.
Kike Hernandez had two doubles and two RBIs and Cavan Biggio added a run-scoring single as the Dodgers won two of the three games in the series, snapping a streak of six road series losses for L.A.
Just trying to do my part, Hernandez said. We've been struggling as a team, and I believe that if I'm anywhere close to the hitter that I'm capable of being we'll be in better shape.
Former Cal State East Bay star pitcher Alex Vesia (2-3) struck out two batters in the seventh inning and earned the Dodgers' last win ever in Oakland. The left-hander was one of five Los Angeles relievers who combined for six strikeouts and no walks in 4 1/3 in.
