Athletics Look Ahead After Rays Loss | Oakland Athletics News

The Athletics fell to the Rays 8-4, but the loss is overshadowed by momentum: three 10-game winning streaks this year — a rarity since 2006. Pitcher Jack Perkins battled through rough innings, reminding the team to stay focused on the next pitch, not the result. Sodi continues to anchor the offense with consistency, while Drew battled a brutal Atlanta airport layover to deliver a strong start. The Rays, meanwhile, are proving why they’re AL contenders — balanced, disciplined, and explosive with speed. And the A’s are smartly managing health, using Sodi as a DH and trusting Carlos in left field for key at-bats. This team’s resilience, adaptability, and grit are building something special.
