Athletics' Kyle McCann: Draws rare start Friday
Kyle McCann, drawing his first start since Sept. 15, went 1-for-3 in a loss to the Mariners on Friday.McCann had been limited to a trio of pinch-hit appearances since his last turn in the starting nine nearly two weeks prior. The rookie backstop's bat faded over the latter portion of the season after a hot start to his big-league career, but his nine extra-base hits, 15 RBI, 15 walks, 13 runs, .241 batting average and .700 OPS give him a foundation to build on going into his first offseason as a major-league player.

Athletics' Kyle McCann: Belts pinch-hit homer Saturday
Kyle McCann entered Saturday's win over the Orioles as a pinch hitter in the eighth inning and hit a two-run home run in his one plate appearance.McCann's blast ironically came off namesake and fellow backstop James McCann, who was in as a reliever at that point with the Orioles down 17-6. McCann's homer plated Max Schuemann with the final runs of the night for the Oakland Athletics and served as his first time leaving the yard since May 7, a span of 21 games for the occasional fill-in catcher.

Athletics' Kyle McCann: On base three times Wednesday
Kyle McCann went 1-for-2 with two walks in a loss to the Angels on Wednesday.McCann made one of his relatively infrequent appearances in the starting nine and once again contributed, qualifying as the only Oakland Athletics batter to reach safely on three occasions. However, he was part of an unfortunate sequence in the second inning, when he stumbled and failed to touch home plate when attempting to score and was subsequently called out due to Armando Alvarez making contact with him in an attempt to steer McCann back to the plate. That gaffe notwithstanding, the rookie backstop has now reached safely in four consecutive games dating back to June 16, and he sports a .278 average and .804 OPS across 91 plate appearances (30 games) this season.
