EDGE Analysis

The Oakland righty was effective for most of the night, but Marcus Semien tagged him for a solo home run in the third, Leody Taveras knocked a triple and came around to score on a Bubba Thompson single in the sixth. Kaprielian has now thrown over five innings in 10 straight starts but has only recorded three quality starts in that span. He will carry a 4.33 ERA and 1.33 WHIP into his next start.
