The A’s are back in Sacramento for some much-needed home cooking. After getting punched in the mouth over the weekend in San Francisco the club will now welcome the Los Angeles Angels to Sutter Health Park for the first time in 2025 for a four-game weekday series.
-Angels W/L record: 20-25 (5th in AL West)
-Run differential: -59
-Team OPS: .680 (23rd of 30)
-Team ERA: 5.08 (25th of 30)
Los Angeles is coming off an impressive three-game sweep of the city rival Dodgers. Doing that against the team with the best record and reigning champions would give any team a boost of confidence, and it should be especially encouraging for the Halos considering they did it without superstar Mike Trout, who will also miss this upcoming series due to that knee injury he’s currently dealing with.
