The A’s had the day off yesterday as they prepared to embark on a two-city road trip to the Midwest. They’re scheduled to begin a 3-game series with the Chicago White Sox this evening as baseball celebrates its annual Jackie Robinson Day. What better way to celebrate than watching two rebuilding teams get at each other?
The White Sox sit at 4-11, in the cellar of the AL Central and with the worst record in the American League. That’s about where most people expected them after they went a dismal 41-121 last season en route to one of the worst seasons any team has ever had.
