The Oakland A’s are on a four-game winning streak! After their poor start they’ve already battled back to 5-7. Now they get four matchups against the rebuilding Detroit Tigers.
A’s fans will see a couple familiar faces in the opposing lineup. Robbie Grossman signed with the Tigers as a free agent last winter, after two seasons with the A’s in 2019-20. He’s batting leadoff and DHing. Meanwhile, former top prospect Renato Nuñez is at first base, where he’s filling in for former MVP slugger Miguel Cabrera, who’s out injured.
Grossman, Nuñez, and the rest of the Tigers will face Oakland lefty Sean Manaea, making his third start of the year.
