Jeffrey Springs allowed one hit in seven outstanding innings to lead to the visiting Athletics to a 1-0 victory over the New York Yankees on Thursday afternoon.
Springs (2-0) took a no-hit bid into the seventh before Ben Rice cleanly singled to right field following a one-out walk to Giancarlo Stanton. The veteran left-hander allowed only Rice's hit, struck out six and walked two.
Springs threw 60 of 93 pitches for strikes and only allowed four baserunners. He struck out Aaron Judge on a called third strike to end the third with two on and retired Austin Wells on a fly ball with two on to end the seventh.
The A's won their first series over the Yankees in New York since getting a three-game sweep April 19-21, 2016. The A's did not score until Max Muncy tripled and trotted home on a single by Tyler Soderstrom off New York starter Ryan Weathers (0-1).
The A's won for the fifth time in eight games after dropping their first four contests and finished with eight hits.
After Springs finished, right-hander Justin Sterner retired Judge on a groundout with a runner on first to end the eighth. Left-hander Hogan Harris struck out Rice to cap a perfect ninth and notched his first save.
The A's earned the win after losing right fielder Brent Rooker to right flank discomfort on a swing in the opening inning.
The Yankees were held to one hit for the first time since Aug. 15, 2023, at Atlanta. The A's allowed one hit for the first time since April 11, 2024, at Texas when JP Sears lost a no-hit bid in the seventh.
Weathers allowed one run on seven hits in a season-high seven innings. The left-hander struck out seven, walked none and threw a career-high 101 pitches.
The Yankees lost for the third time in four games and had three at-bats with a runner in scoring position. New York has not scored since taking a two-run lead on Luis Severino in the first inning of Wednesday's 3-2 loss.
