A’s vs. Blue Jays game thread

The Athletics hit the road for an East Coast trip this weekend, stopping by Toronto first to take on the Blue Jays in the first of three contests.

Toronto entered the season with high expectations but instead find themselves at the bottom of the AL East standings. A sweep of the Blue Jays and the A’s would get dang near close to matching their record.

Righty Mitch Spence gets the ball for tonight’s start, set to make his 26th appearance of the season. Spence has had the usual rookie struggles that often come with the inexperience but he’a coming off of a solid stretch of starts, and he’ll be looking to keep that going against a Blue Jays offense that has some serious star power.
