This weekend, the Athletics (41-50) play host to the Minnesota Twins (49-40) for a three-game set to conclude their seven-game season series. The A's lost three of four to the Twins in May as Oakland played through the middle of the team's 6-22 spiral between April 23 and May 22. Two were high-scoring one-run losses, one was a low-scoring one-run win, and the remainder was a 0-13 laugher that saw Chad Smith and R.J. Alvarez concede seven runs and get only four outs. The Twins have been 33-27 since facing the A's.
