The A’s announced a paid attendance of 2,703.
Orioles starter Jordan Lyles gave up five hits in out-dueling A’s right-hander Daulton Jefferies , who allowed three hits and just that unearned run while striking out five in six sparkling innings.
Tony Kemp hit a leadoff single in the eighth against Bryan Baker, who then allowed Sheldon Neuse’s single before a pair of strikeouts and a groundout to escape the inning. Jorge López finished for his second save. “I think this was a great decision made to ensure that we got this game in,” A’s manager Mark Kotsay said. “… It is a disruption to the fans and that’s something we’ve got to be aware of. … We’re going to make adjustments as well for them.”
Seth Brown fouled off seven straight pitches before a double to right in the second inning. McKinney was on first after a leadoff single and he slid headfirst trying to score on Brown’s hit. A run went up on the scoreboard, Baltimore challenged and the play was overturned on a ruling that catcher Anthony Bemboom tagged McKinney in time.
