Happy Monday, Athletics Nation!
Down here in Los Angeles we get our share of June Gloom, or too much haze and smog blocking our sunshine. But even your most sullen teenage mall goth sulking in the food court with a soggy slice of Sbarro’s is cheerier than the month our Oakland Athletics are having.
The A’s lost a double header to the Twins yesterday to give Minnesota a four game sweep, which followed a three game sweep at the hands of the Padres earlier in the week. All that adds up to a winless 0-7 road trip that extends the A’s current losing streak to nine.
