Athletics left fielder Mark Canha continued to swing a hot bat on Friday, launching his first home run of the season and leading his club to a 12-0 win over Seattle. Canha took Taijuan Walker deep for a two-run home run in the second inning to break the game open. He finished 3 for 5 with three runs scored and two RBI.
Canha is hitting .500 (7 for 14) with six RBI to start the season.
"I don't even talk to him right now," manager Bob Melvin said after Friday's game, per Comcast SportsNet Bay Area. "Whatever he's doing, let's just let him do it."
