To say a day off was needed for the A’s yesterday could be an understatement.
A day before, they were swept by their division rival Los Angeles Angels in uninspiring fashion to extend their losing streak to five games overall. The A’s haven’t won a road series since April 26 - 28, and the task doesn’t get any easier tonight as they open up another three-game stand against the reigning National League champion Arizona Diamondbacks in the desert.
Good evening and happy Friday A’s fans. We made it to the weekend!
I say reigning NL Champs but the Dbacks have had a sluggish first half of their 2024 campaign with a 39-42 record which is good for third in the NL West.
