Game Preview
The Oakland Athletics and Atlanta Braves face up today at Truist Park in a very important series as both of these teams had a disappointing start this season. The A’s arrive at Truist Park after losing six games in a row, leaving their overall record at 20-36. If we look back at their last 3 games, the A’s have been able to score only 4 runs in total, which is a failure in any team’s books.
On the other hand, the Atlanta Braves are on a better record sitting at 28-27, although most of those losses happened earlier on in the season. Right now, the Braves are on a 5-game winning streak, which makes it look like they’ve finally found a way to turn things around.
The main question remains, will the Atlanta Braves beat the A’s once again? The last time these two teams played was back in June 2017, and the Braves rolled over the A’s with ease. Atlanta has the upper hand in the all-time series 15-4.
The Oakland Athletics will send out Cole Irvin as their starting pitcher. Irvin is sitting on a 2-2 record and an ERA of 2.96. In his last appearance, we saw him against the Houston Astros, he went 5 innings and gave up 6 hits and 1 run.
Kyle Wright will open up the game for the Atlanta Braves, who sits with a 5-3 record and an ERA of 2.41. We last saw Wright in the Braves’ game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, where he gave up 3 hits and didn’t allow a single run over 6 innings.
This series is going to be extremely important for both teams, although they have different goals in mind. The Athletics are looking to recover from their 6-game losing streak, while the Atlanta Braves will try to keep the ball rolling and get closer and closer to a better season finish.
