Athletics Struggle to Stay Alive | MLB News

The Athletics are in freefall, sitting at 41-47 and reeling after a brutal loss, but they’re clinging to hope that a late-season surge can save their season. With injuries mounting and pitching in shambles, they’ve lost 7 of their last 10 games and are the worst home pitching team since 1955. Still, they’re projected to win 2 of 3 against the Tigers and White Sox — a modest 4-4 finish to the first half that could spark momentum. Even if it’s ugly, getting back to .500 in their final eight games might just be enough to turn things around after the All-Star break.
