Sacramento A’s podcast Barbara Mason:

#1 The first two games of the Sacramento A’s series with the Cleveland Guardians was really disappointing as the teams fights to hand to stay in first place. Game three was a critical one to avoid getting swept.

2. Unlike game Saturday’s game the A’s got hits but did not leave runners stranded instead cashed in on them for the 7-1 win.

3. The A’s really spread out their hits with eight different players making contact which included three home runs.

4. Jeff McNeil proved to be the straw that broke the camel’s back with a critical hit in the sixth. That combined with some great work on the mound from Aaron Civale equaled a great win for the Athletics.

5.The A’s head out on the road for six games, they have Monday off and open a three game series with the Philadelphia Phillies which gets underway on Tuesday evening.
