On the Oakland A’s podcast with Barbara Mason:

#1 The New York Yankees Aaron Judge belted a league leading 55th home run against the Oakland A’s at the Oakland Coliseum in what was the Yankees last visit to Oakland defeating the A’s 7-4 on Sunday afternoon.

#2 The win for New York gave them a three game sweep over the A’s. The A’s just could never get tracked and surpass the Yankees scoring only two runs in the first and another two in the sixth inning.

#3 The Yankees who are assured a playoff birth can clinch the AL East division with a win during their next three game series which starts Tuesday against the second place Baltimore Orioles.

#4 Judge was an unstoppable force hitting home runs on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. He’s been looking like a Hall of Famer with the way he’s been getting around the baseball.

#5 Oakland A’s owner John Fisher released a statement saying while he’s sorry that the A’s have to move to Sacramento he’s asking A’s fans to always remember the last 56 years of Oakland baseball. Critics of the statement have called the letter a lot of lip service.

#6 The A’s play their very last home series ever in their Oakland history starting Tuesday night against the Texas Rangers. Starting pitcher for Texas Nathan Eovaldi (11-8, 3.96) he’ll be opposed by the A’s starter Mitch Spence (8-9, 4.30) first pitch 6:40pm PT at the Oakland Coliseum.
