Earning 1/2 WOBs in losing efforts.

Coco Crisp got on base 5 times but did not score once as the A’s lost another heart breaker walk off style, 2-1 against Texas.

Yasmani Grandal hit 2 homers and drove in 5 in the Padres 9-8 loss in San Francisco.

So Let’s factor in yesterday’s heroics into the year long WOB standings
