Summary
The Oakland A’s are in freefall, losers of ten straight and fourteen of fifteen, sliding to fourth in the division. Henry Bolte’s slump is brutal—.121 in his last ten games, plus a fielding blunder that cost them six runs. But Tyler Soderstrom keeps shining, crushing a two-run homer even in defeat. The bullpen’s collapse is the real killer—12 runs surrendered in one game thanks to defensive lapses. Hope lies with Elvis Alvarado and Luis Medina, but with their shaky season records, it’s unclear if they’ll turn things around. The A’s need a miracle.
