Sox were 1-5 vs the A's in 2019, 0-3 in Oakland.
2-5 in 2018, 0-3 in Oakland.
1-5 in 2017, 1-2 in Oakland.
Not exactly jumping for joy at the thought of playing the A's in Oakland after the shitty week they've had.
Lefty on the mound on a warm night seems like a fine time to regain that home run stroke and put runs on the board. Just win one more game to finish 10 games over and avoid going out on a massive losing streak.
33-17 on Sept 17th
34-24 after this one.
6th straight loss. 1-7 since “clinching.”
From #1 seed, best record in the AL, to the 7th seed in the span of a week.
2 playoff games is hardly a consolation for this complete and utter collapse.
