Jace Peterson homered twice on a five-hit night and drove in five runs, and the Oakland A's ended a 15-game road losing streak with an 11-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates.
“I just didn’t execute,” Keller said. “It comes down to execution. I left too many pitches over the middle and they took advantage, free passes. It was not a good night.”
“Tonight, his breaking stuff wasn’t very sharp, so he didn’t get a ton of swing and misses,” Pirates manager Derek Shelton said. “On top of it, the fastball command was really inconsistent.” “This kid, Keller, has pitched great all season,” Oakland manager Mark Kotsay said. “We knew what we were up against. The at-bats started out really well. We had a great plan. The offense executed their plan. ... You tip your cap to the guys in that room for executing the plan.”
