Sacramento A’s podcast with Daneil Dullum Sun Apr 12, 2026

#1 Daniel, a rather impressive road trip for the Sacramento A’s taking five out six games in three game series against the New York Yankees and New York Mets.

#2 In the first series against the Yankees the A’s narrowly lost that first and only game as they lost a 3-1 lead and the Yankees ralled for four runs to win it 5-3 but the A’s mastered five straight wins the rest of the way.

#3 In game three on Thursday at Yankee Stadium A’s starter Jefferey Springs took a no hitter into the seventh inning but lost it when the Yanks Ben Rice socked a single to break up the bid. But it shows you the depth of the A’s pitching and hitting to win against both New York teams five out of six games.

#4 Against the Mets once again the A’s got great pitching on Friday and Sunday with shutout wins on Saturday the A’s won in a slugfest 11-6 sweeping the three game series.

#5 The A’s open up a three game series against the Texas Rangers. The Rangers are right behind the A’s in the standings by a half game and this will be a real test going up against a Western Division rival back in West Sacramento at Sutter Health Field on Monday night. Starting pitchers for the Rangers RHP Nathan Eovaldi (1-2 ERA 7.98) for the A’s RHP Luis Severino (0-1 ERA 5.40) first pitch 6:40pm PDT.
