On the A’s podcast with Charlie O, traditionally for the Oakland A’s interleague has been a good thing as you look over the body of work for the A’s their one of the top five teams in winning percentage when it comes to interleague games. The A’s would hope that these interleague game that stretch over five games coming up would be a good thing for the A’s. The A’s have the two games in Milwaukee with the Brewers.

They have the Tuesday and Wednesday games in Milwaukee then they have Thursday off and then they go for three games in Cincinnati both Milwaukee and Cincinnati in the Central division of the National League so you would hope they would do well against them. One caveat you have to look at is that both Milwaukee and Cincinnati are playing about above .500 ball at home. So Brewers and Reds have been better teams at home.
