Good morning, Athletics Nation!
The Oakland A’s had a tough couple days against the Colorado Rockies this week, getting humbled in a two-game sweep after their encouraging opening series against the Los Angeles Angels. The A’s finished their first homestand of the season with a 3-3 record.
The two games against the Rockies were frustrating, with Oakland’s bats going silent and missing many golden opportunities — combined they went 0-for-14 with runners in scoring position. But there’s still news to get excited about as the team travels to Seattle for four dates against the Mariners: Jesus Luzardo is coming.
