Morning, all! Skip Schumaker took responsibility for yesterday’s loss in a postgame presser, saying he should have walked Shea Langeliers in a tie game with first base open. The game was tied up when Schumaker brought in Cole Winn to face Langeliers in the fifth with a lefty due up behind him, a situation Langeliers […]
A’s 6, Rangers 5
On Jackie Robinson Day, it would be the A’s who’d strike first. Tyler Soderstrom’s opposite field double brought home Carlos Cortes. This would be the first time in 2026 that the A’s filled the box score in the first inning. They were the only team who hadn’t done so this season. Off the bat, it […]

Coming into the season, one of the more polarizing prospects that was supposed to make his debut was Justin Crawford. One would think that a player that had as good a set of numbers from his minor league days as Crawford had would be the actual opposite of polarizing, but his case became an argument […]
Last year I attended one A’s home game up in Sacramento and tonight I will be on “the berm” hoping to catch a few A’s HRs. Why tonight’s game? Because tonight’s game is fraught with symbolic significance, maybe not in the way you’re thinking. It’s Jackie Robinson Day and what could rise to the level […]
A’s 2, Rangers 1
Happy Wednesday, A’s fans. Today, the Athletics—and every other MLB team—will wear No. 42 in honor of the legendary Jackie Robinson.

That streak came to an end Monday in the opener of […]

Rangers 8, A’s 1
Fresh off a three-game sweep of the inter-league rival New York Mets, the A’s returned home to Sutter Health Park today to begin a division series matchup with the Texas Rangers. Luis Severino returned to the Sutter Health Park mound for the first time in 2026. He faced off against 36-year-old righty Nathan Eovaldi for […]
The Texas Rangers scored eight runs while the Northern California Athletics scored one run. Maybe the most surprising thing about tonight’s game, especially as it was unfolding early, was that A’s starter Luis Severino ended up pitching six innings. Or maybe it was that the A’s eventually scored at all. In the game’s first frame, […]

Yesterday’s loss—the Mets’ fourth in a row—sucked. No doubt about it. But we could at least comfort ourselves with the knowledge that the bats momentarily came alive, hitting three homers after falling behind early in the game. “Maybe,” we told ourselves with all the optimism that April carries, “this will be the turning point for […]
The Athletics defeated the Mets 1-0, completing a sweep of New York’s national league team for the first time in franchise history. Having won the first two games of their series against the New York Mets, the Athletics sent right-hander Aaron Civale to the mound with a series sweep on their minds. On the other […]
