Oakland Athletics
Oakland Athletics continue to struggle and will now need a lot of work to avoid a sweep. In their last matches, the Oakland Athletics have one win against the Seattle Mariners. However, their series against the Miami Marlins and the Seattle Mariners have ended in defeats, and they are about to be swept by the Astros. This season, Oakland Athletics have an 18-25 record and are seated 13th in the American League.
Analysis and Predictions
The Oakland Athletics should win here regardless. The visiting team has not been too impressive, but despite the Houston Astros' strong performance in this series, I still don't t♓rust them. This should be a tough one for the Oakland Athletics, given they are on the road and are not at their best, but still, a bet on the underdogs is worth considering.
