Game Preview
On Tuesday, the Oakland Athletics will play their fourth game of the MLB season against the Cleveland Guardians. Despite playing at home, the A’s are expected to be the underdogs in all three games against the Guardians.
The Guardians surprised everyone by making it to the postseason last year despite not being predicted to do so. This year, they are favored to win the AL Central division. It remains to be seen if the young team can handle the pressure of high expectations.
Shane Bieber, the ace pitcher of the Guardians, will start on Tuesday. He threw a scoreless game on Opening Day against the Seattle Mariners and did not walk any batters.
The Guardians have been inconsistent so far this season, scoring twice as many runs as the Athletics but with unpredictable performances. Additionally, the absence of Triston McKenzie due to injury means that their pitching can’t always be relied on.
After a difficult 2022 season, the Athletics are hoping to be more competitive this year. The left-handed pitcher JP Sears, who had a successful season last year, will make his season debut on Tuesday against the Guardians.
