The Oakland A’s lead the American League in home runs, and you can tell this weekend in Anaheim.
The A’s hit three more dingers on Saturday in a 6-2 victory over the Los Angeles Angels, raising their two-day total to seven long balls against the Halos. They’ve got 66 for the season, trailing only the Atlanta Braves in the NL.
Oakland saved that power for later in the evening, though, as their first two runs were more products of shaky Angels defense. Mark Canha opened the game with a double to the gap in right-center, but a bobble by the center fielder gave Canha time to advance to third, putting him in position to score on a sac fly by Matt Chapman.
