Game #11: Athletics vs. Padres Game Thread
Back home after a quick trip to Colorado, the A’s play host to the San Diego Padres to kick off a three-game series and begin an extended home stand for the first time this year. Monday Night Baseball is awesome.
Starting things off for the Green & Gold in tonight’s matchup will be Luis Severino. The right-hander has had one superb start this season and one dud as well so he’ll be looking to show that his Opening Day outing was no fluke. He’s got a 3.75 ERA that he’d like to shrink with a strong outing tonight against a tough opponent at a hitter-friendly ballpark. On the bright side, most of San Diego’s stars are right=handed so he has an advantage there.
