Coming off a disappointing series loss to the Cardinals, the Brewers are hoping to bounce back this weekend as they wrap up their short six-game road trip in Oakland against the Athletics.
The A’s have been near the bottom of the league for a few years now, as they currently sit with the fourth-worst record in baseball, ahead of only the Rockies, Marlins, and White Sox entering play on Thursday. They’ve been decent in August, with a 9-8 record heading into their series finale with the Rays.
On the injury front, the A’s are missing several pitchers, including former Brewer Trevor Gott, who underwent Tommy John surgery in April.
