Athletics News
The Athletics clinched their 63rd win of the season last night, defeating the Angels 7-3 and ensuring they won't hit the dreaded 100-loss mark. This victory highlights the A's resilience, especially with Henry Bolte showcasing his potential by notching his first career four-hit game, a bright spot in an otherwise challenging season. However, the evening was marred by a scary moment when catcher Brian Serven exited after taking a ball to the face, adding to the team's growing injury woes. With only four games left, the A's have won seven of twelve against the Angels this year, indicating some success against division rivals. The focus now shifts to closing out the season strong and building momentum for the offseason.
