The Oakland A’s are on absolute fire. They’ve won nine games in a row, their 12-4 record is the best in the American League, and they have a five-game lead in the AL West ... over the Texas Rangers, with the incumbent Houston Astros getting knocked down to third place after being swept in the Coliseum last weekend.
The A’s have now played all four of their division rivals in 2020, winning 12 of 14 against them combined, so they’ll circle around and start over again. Time for a rematch against the Los Angeles Angels, on the road in Anaheim.
