Beyond that, Guerrero’s swinging strike on the second pitch he saw from A’s reliever Liam Hendricks in the seventh inning was his first swing and miss since his call-up. It was his 30th pitch seen; two pitches later, he had his first swinging strikeout on a nasty slider in the dirt.

Guerrero, after all, injured his oblique and missed the final three weeks.
