Mitch Moreland still can’t be stopped at the Coliseum

For the past decade, Mitch Moreland has owned the Coliseum.

Anytime his Rangers or Red Sox teams rolled through Oakland to play the A’s, Mitchy Two Bags always thrived by the Bay. Through 2020 he had hit more homers here than any other visiting park, and his .900 OPS was more than 100 points better than his overall career mark.

He was clutch, too. In three of his 53 games at Rickey Henderson Field, he stepped into the batter’s box with his club tied or trailing in the 6th inning or later and delivered the RBI to break the tie or erase the deficit.
