The Oakland A’s have the worst record in the majors this year. Nearly halfway into the season they stand at 23-48, and their .324 percentage means they aren’t even winning one out of every three games. This afternoon their starting pitcher took a no-hitter into the 8th inning and they still lost.
Not only are they in the MLB cellar, they’re on pace for the worst year in franchise history. At their current clip they’ll lose 109 games, or 110 if you round up the decimal, which would eclipse their 54-108 mark from 1979. No other Oakland team has ever lost more than 98 times.
