The Athletics travel to the baseball shrine known as Yankee Stadium in the Bronx to take on their American League East rival New York Yankees. The Yankees are 46-34 and currently in first place in the East. However, they are only 4-6 in their last ten games and a mere ½ game ahead of the Tampa Bay Rays (who currently play in the Yankees Spring Training facility).
Mitch Spence will take the mound for the A’s tonight. The 27-year-old righty is currently 2-2 with a 3.84 ERA in four starts and twenty-six total appearances.
