## Resource

The Athletics are clinging to a slim lead in the A.L. West and need a big win to reignite their season—Game Two could be the spark. Offense is sputtering, but hitters like Kurtz, Rooker, and Langeliers are due for power, and even one deep shot could swing the game. Luis Severino, fresh off strong outings, must avoid early runs—especially after giving up a two-run homer in his last start. A win here isn’t just about staying ahead of the Mariners; it’s about avoiding a slump before facing the Yankees. Momentum, pitching, and timely hits could be all they need to keep their playoff hopes alive. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
