9/3 to 9/5 Series Preview: Oakland Athletics

In a likely playoff preview, the Yankees travel to the Bay Area for a three-game set with the current WC2 leader, the Oakland Athletics.

The Last Time They Met

It’s been more than three months since the Yankees took two of three from Oakland at Yankee Stadium on May 11-13.

  • The A’s took the opener with four homers, blitzing Sonny Gray and scoring five runs off David Hale and David Robertson combined.
  • The Yankees took Game 2 in 11 innings on a Neil Walker walk-off single. Six no-hit innings from the bullpen did the job while Brett Gardner and Gary Sanchez combined for the most exciting defensive play of the season.
