POWER Stave off A’s Comeback to Win 9-5
The Power got back on track on Friday with a win to improve to 4-2. Brice Foster dominated on the mound for the Power. The starter went five strong innings tallying 4 strikeouts along the way. He would only give up two hits as he cruised to his league leading third win on the season. Tavis Brunson delivered a long two-run home run for the A’s in the sixth inning. However, the big blast was not nearly enough for them offensively. The six through nine hitters for the Power provided the offense needed, as they scored seven runs on seven hits.
