Athletics on the Brink | MLB News

The Athletics’ season hangs by a thread after three straight series losses, now two games behind in the A.L. West with a brutal matchup against the Dodgers looming. Their biggest issue? Struggling to hit with runners in scoring position—going 0-for-8 in a recent game while key hitters like Langeliers and Williams failed to deliver. Pitcher Aaron Civale’s inconsistency is another major concern, as his last outing saw seven hits and four runs in just five innings. But there’s a glimmer of hope: Jose Suarez has been a reliable bullpen anchor, pitching scoreless innings in back-to-back games. The question now is whether Suarez can sustain this momentum—or if the team needs a full-scale turnaround from starters and hitters to salvage their season.
