Episode 271 -- James Kaprielian got his first big league win in his first career start on Wednesday, and it came against the best offense in baseball. Jason goes into his pitch mix and how A's pitchers are finding success this season.

In the second segment, we have a slightly delayed Water Cooler Wednesday (thanks ballpark news) talking about the next step in Sean Murphy's evolution at the plate. The water cooler number is 30.8.
