Phoenix - Right-hander Dave Bush's first exhibition outing of the spring was a rough one.
It only took four batters for the Oakland Athletics to score four runs off Bush in the bottom of the first inning today. A couple of singles and a walk loaded the bases for Jack Cust, who smacked an opposite-field grand slam to left.
Bush was much better in the second inning, allowing only a one-out walk to Travis Buck.
It's 4-1 Oakland heading into the bottom of the third, with lefty Manny Parra coming in to replace Bush.
