The A’s don’t take holidays off! The club is set to welcome the San Francisco Giants to West Sacramento for the first time, ready to get some revenge on their former cross-bay rivals.
The A’s will go with lefty JP Sears for the series opener. He bounced back to deliver a quality outing last time out, firing off 5 2⁄3 inninhs of shutout baseball. The A’s would welcome that tonight in their series opener.
