#1 Cleveland Guardians starter Gavin Williams had his mix of pitches working for him shutting out the Sacramento A’s at Progressive Field on Sunday 1-0.
#2 Taking a look at Williams numbers pitched seven innings, allowed three hits, struck out nine batters and moved into first place as the leading pitcher with 244 strikeouts.
#3 Things are getting tougher for the A’s who were coming off a 7-3 record in their previous ten games when they started this road trip which they started on Tuesday in Tampa Bay getting swept in all six games of the trip.
#4 Frustrations continue for A’s manager Mark Kotsay after A’s pitcher Jack Perkins fielded a slow ground ball in front of the pitcher’s mound but Perkins throw ended up hitting Guardians runner Jo Adell in the back in the basepath. Adell was allowed the base and Kotsay argued he was in the fielders lane rather than the runner’s lane and was ceromoniously tossed out for the third time this season.
#5 The A’s will try it again on Tuesday night at Sutter Health Field in West Sacramento after getting beat in all of their six road games. This time they host the Los Angeles Angels with a 6:40pm PDT start. Starting pitchers for Los Angeles LHP Yusei Kikuchi (1-6 ERA 5.02) for Sacramento LHP Brady Basso (1-3 ERA 4.50).

Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Junior Caminero celebrates after the Rays defeated the Sacramento A’s at Tropicana Field in St Petersburg on Thu Sep 17, 2026 (AP News photo)
Six-Run Fourth Buries A’s 10-1 in Tampa Bay
By Mauricio Segura
The Tampa Bay Rays turned the fourth inning into a runaway train and finished off a 10-1 win. The loss completed a three-game sweep and dropped the Sacramento A’s to 61-92, while Tampa Bay took all six meetings in the season series. The A’s had been 0-5 against the Rays with one game remaining before the finale.
For three innings, Jeffrey Springs matched Drew Rasmussen zero for zero. Sacramento even put pressure on the Rays in the third when Denzel Clarke singled with two outs, stole second, and then took third as Henry Bolte stole second behind him. Jeff McNeil grounded out to end the threat, leaving two runners in scoring position. Bolte had been tied for the Major League lead in September stolen bases before the game, and the A’s showed early that their speed could create trouble.
The game broke apart in the fourth. Jonathan Aranda opened the inning with a double, Junior Caminero drew a walk, and Liam Hicks followed with another. Springs got Jonny DeLuca on a force play at the plate, but Chandler Simpson lined a two-run single to center for a 2-0 lead. Ryan Vilade was then hit by a pitch, loading the bases again.
Richie Palacios followed with the swing that turned the inning from damage into disaster. His double to right brought home DeLuca and Simpson, and Vilade also scored after the throw got away from catcher Jonah Heim. Palacios advanced to third on the error and scored when Taylor Walls dropped a bunt single toward third. By the time Geoff Hartlieb replaced Springs, Tampa Bay had scored six times.
It was a rough ending for Springs in a familiar place. Before joining the Athletics, the left-hander pitched for Tampa Bay from 2021 through 2024, going 18-8 with a 2.63 ERA in 86 games, including 35 starts. He allowed six runs on five hits and two walks over 3 1/3 innings, striking out four. Rasmussen went the other direction, holding the A’s scoreless over five innings while giving up four hits and two walks with three strikeouts.
Lawrence Butler finally gave the Green and Gold something to celebrate in the sixth. Casey Legumina replaced Rasmussen, and Butler greeted him with a solo homer to right, his 17th of the season. Butler also had a fourth-inning single, finishing with two of Sacramento’s five hits. The A’s began the day with a Major League-best 25 home runs in September, but Butler’s blast was all the power they could produce.
Tampa Bay answered before the A’s could build anything around Butler’s homer. Simpson singled, stole second, and then stole third as pinch-runner Cedric Mullins took second. Richie Palacios walked to load the bases, and Chris Roycroft issued bases-loaded walks to Walls and Aranda, pushing the score to 8-1.
The Rays added two more in the eighth after an error by Bolte helped extend the inning. With the bases loaded, Hicks hit a two-run infield single that scored Walls and Aranda. Drew Rom got the final out, but the damage had already pushed Tampa Bay into double digits.
Sacramento never found another answer. Alex Cook retired Tommy White, Alika Williams and Jonah Heim in order in the ninth, ending an afternoon in which the A’s managed five hits and left seven runners on base. The first two games of the series were decided by one run, but the finale offered no such suspense.
The road trip now shifts to Cleveland, where the A’s Mason Barnett (1-4, 7.08 ERA, 38 strikeouts) is set to face the Guardians Daniel Espino (0-0, 2.92 ERA, 21 strikeouts), with first pitch scheduled for 4:10 p.m. Pacific.

Sacramento A’s podcast Jeremiah Salmonson:
#1 Can’t put out a team that’s on fire like the Tampa Bay R as the Sacramento A’s were landslided 10-1 at Tropicana Field in St Petersburg on Thursday afternoon.
#2 Once again A’s starter Jeffrey Springs got lit up pitching 3.1 innings, allowing five hits and six earned runs. Springs picks up his 15th loss against only four wins for the season.
#3 Springs pitched shutout ball until the bottom of the fourth inning and that’s when the Rays let into him with a six run rally and it was difficult to stop the bleeding.
#4 The A’s couldn’t get any offense going just picking up one run in the top of the sixth by Lawrence Butler whose been swinging a hot bat of late hit a solo shot for the A’s only run.
#5 The A’s will try and turn the page after getting swept in Tampa Bay this time in Cleveland on Friday night against former A Stephen Vogt and the Guardians at Progressive Field. Starting pitchers for Sacramento RHP Mason Barnett (1-4 ERA 7.08) for Cleveland RHP Daniel Espino (0-0 ERA 2.92) first pitch 4:10pm PDT.

Sacramento A’s Henry Bolte is congratulated by third base coach Bobby Crosby before heading home after hitting his 11th home run of the season against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field in St Petersburg on Wed Sep 16, 2026 (AP News photo)
By Mauricio Segura
The Tampa Bay Rays did all of its scoring before the Sacramento Athletics could answer on Wednesday night, then protected a one-run lead the rest of the way. The Rays scored twice in each of the first two innings against Brady Basso and held off Sacramento for a 4-3 win, handing the A’s their second straight loss in the series.
Basso was two outs into the first before Tampa Bay strung together three consecutive doubles. Junior Caminero started the run with a drive to center, Jonny DeLuca followed with an RBI double to left, and Chandler Simpson sent another double into right to score DeLuca. The Rays went right back to work in the second. Jorge Mateo singled, stole second and scored on Nick Fortes’ double. Ryan Vilade later singled home Fortes for a 4-0 lead.
Basso never found room to settle. He allowed four runs on seven hits in 2 2/3 innings, with no walks and no strikeouts, and took the loss to fall to 1-3. The left-hander had thrown seven scoreless innings across his previous two starts, but Tampa Bay broke that stretch quickly.
The Athletics answered in the third, and two young hitters supplied the power. Tommy White opened the inning with a solo homer to left, his third of the season. After Carlos Cortes and Brian Serven were retired, Henry Bolte drove a solo shot to center for his 11th homer, trimming the deficit to 4-2. White’s homer carried a little extra meaning after he spoke about the memories he shared with his father at that ballpark and how he fell in love with baseball there.
Bolte’s blast continued a strong September. He began the game batting .313 for the month with four home runs, six stolen bases and a .450 on-base percentage. He also had already reached 20 steals for the season, the most by an Athletics player age 22 or younger since Rickey Henderson stole 56 at age 22 in 1981.
Once Basso left, Sacramento’s bullpen gave the offense every chance to finish the comeback. Seth Johnson retired all seven batters he faced and struck out four over 2 1/3 innings. Drew Rom, Scott Blewett and Hogan Harris followed, and the four relievers combined for 5 1/3 scoreless innings while allowing only two hits, issuing no walks and striking out six.
The A’s moved within one in the sixth. Jeff McNeil doubled off Kevin Kelly and Shea Langeliers followed with a single through the middle to score him. The hit extended Langeliers’ career-best hitting streak to 12 games. The catcher had only recently returned after surgery on a torn right meniscus, making his continued production one of the brighter parts of the late-season stretch.
Sacramento had chances to find the tying run but could not produce another hit when it mattered most. Tommy White singled in the fifth and again in the seventh, finishing 3-for-4 with the homer. McNeil went 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored. Lawrence Butler singled in the fourth, but Donovan Walton grounded into a double play to end that inning.
Tampa Bay starter Nick Martinez worked five innings, allowing two runs on five hits with three strikeouts and no walks to earn his 15th victory. The Rays then used Kevin Kelly, Cam Booser and Cole Sulser to cover the final four innings. Sulser retired Zack Gelof, Walton and White in order in the ninth for his third save.
The series wraps Thursday with Jeffrey Springs (4-13, 5.93 ERA, 105 K) starting for the Athletics against Drew Rasmussen (14-5, 2.81 ERA, 160 K) for Tampa Bay, with first pitch scheduled for 10:10 a.m. Pacific.

Tampa Rays Junior Caminero (center) celebrates his ninth inning walk off home run to defeat the Sacramento A’s at the Tropicana in St Petersburg on Tue Sep 15, 2026 (AP News photo)
Sacramento A’s game wrap:
By Mauricio Segura
A pitcher’s duel kept the Sacramento A’s within reach all night, but the Tampa Bay Rays Junior Caminero needed only one swing in the ninth to erase any hope of a Green and Gold victory, sending the ball into the right-field bleachers. His opposite-field home run off Elvis Alvarado gave Tampa Bay a 2-1 victory and handed the A’s a painful start to their final road trip of the season. It was Caminero’s American League-leading 41st homer and his second game-ending shot in five days.
For most of the game, Jack Perkins gave Sacramento every opportunity to steal one. The right-hander delivered the best start of his major league career, working 6 2/3 innings while allowing four hits, one unearned run and one walk with eight strikeouts. It was a dramatic reversal from his previous meeting with Tampa Bay, when the Rays tagged him for a career-high 12 hits and seven runs over five innings. Perkins began the evening with a 6.53 ERA, but his ability to miss bats had been a season-long strength, with 119 strikeouts in 103 1/3 innings before this outing.
Tampa Bay scratched out the first run in the second without driving it home with a hit. Chandler Simpson doubled to right, moved to third on Richie Palacios’ grounder and scored when a passed ball got away from catcher Jonah Heim. Perkins limited the damage by striking out Jorge Mateo, beginning a long stretch in which Tampa Bay could do little against him.
The A’s had their own problems with Griffin Jax. Alika Williams doubled in the third and Shea Langeliers singled in the fourth, but neither advanced into scoring position. Jax worked five scoreless innings, allowing only those two hits while striking out seven without issuing a walk. He needed just 67 pitches before Tampa Bay turned the game over to its bullpen.
Sacramento finally found an opening against Ty Johnson in the sixth. Henry Bolte singled to left with one out, then Jeff McNeil sent a single into right that pushed Bolte to third. Johnson’s wild pitch did the rest, allowing Bolte to score and McNeil to move to second. Shea Langeliers struck out before Cam Booser replaced Johnson and retired Lawrence Butler, leaving the score tied at 1-1.
Bolte’s contribution continued a productive September. He began the series batting .318 for the month with four homers, seven RBI, 10 walks, 11 runs and six stolen bases, and his 20 steals for the season led American League rookies.
Perkins protected the tie until the seventh. Liam Hicks drew a walk and Simpson collected his third hit of the game, putting two runners aboard with two outs. Luis Medina replaced Perkins and struck out Palacios to strand both. Simpson finished 3-for-3, accounting for half of Tampa Bay’s six hits while raising his batting average to .308.
Medina and Hogan Harris carried the tie through the eighth. The A’s bullpen escaped after Mateo reached on an overturned call and stole second, with Harris retiring Yandy Díaz and striking out Jonathan Aranda. Sacramento then had one final chance in the ninth, but Bryan Baker retired McNeil, Langeliers and Butler in order. Langeliers nearly found grass in left, only for Simpson to make a sliding catch.
That brought Caminero to the plate against Alvarado. After falling behind 0-2, Caminero turned on a 100.4 mph fastball and sent it down the right-field line for a 344-foot homer, ending the game three pitches into the bottom of the ninth.
The series continues with a contrast on the mound as left-hander Brady Basso (1-2, 3.86 ERA, 28 K) gets the ball for the A’s against Tampa Bay right-hander Nick Martinez (14-4, 2.92 ERA, 98 K), with first pitch scheduled for 3:40 p.m. Pacific.

Sacramento A’s Lawrence Butler (4) slugs a 405 foot home run to right center field in the bottom of the first inning as Seattle M’s catcher Jhonny Pereda (5) and plate umpire Andy Fletcher will watch it fly at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento on Sun Sep 13, 2026 (Golden Bay Times photo)
Sacramento A’s podcast Daniel Dullum:
#1 Daniel, Lawrence Butler hit a game winning bottom of the ninth two run walk off home run to wrap up the game for a 8-7 win at Sutter Health Park. The A’s were down in the ninth 7-6 with Zack Gelof on base and Butler cleared the right centerfield fence for the walk off.
#2 A’s are going good they have now won four of their last five games and this team got hot going back to Aug 2 when they topped the Texas Rangers 9-2 avoiding a sweep at that time and have gone 7-3 since then.
#3 Butler hit two home runs in Sunday’s game and looking back on Aug 2 in Texas had a team meeting and that lit the fuse he was slumping in the first half of the season and now has come back with vengence and after hitting around .155 before the break and now in mid September has improved to .230 and has been one of the key guys in the line up.
#4 What can you also say about Henry Bolte whose been the lead off man scored a run in Sunday’s game where every run has counted to edge the M’s and take two out of three. Bolte even though he went 0-3 scored a crucial run and is hitting .275 in the lead off role.
#5 A’s take Mon Sep 14th off and open up a three game series in Tampa Bay against the Rays on Tuesday night Sep 15 in St Petersburg. Starting pitchers for Sacramento RHP Jack Perkins (3-11 ERA 6.53) for Tampa Bay RHP Griffin Jax (7-10 ERA 3.99) first pitch 3:40pm PDT.

Sacramento A’s pitcher Jack Perkins struggled in his outing against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wed Aug 12, 2026 at Sutter Health Park (Sports Illustrated)
Sacramento A’s podcast Jeremiah Salmonson:
#1 Dan Feinstein the A’s new general manager spent 25 years working with A’s former general manager David Forst who said Forst was one of his closest friends. Forst was fired as A’s general manager, “So, the last few days have been difficult for me, personally. I have enormous respect for David and the impact he’s made not only on me, but for so many people in this organization for a very long time. Things will not be the same here without him.”
#2 Feinstein said that for the remaing 40 plus games he will get behind A’s manager Mark Kotsay, the staff, the players in trying to win the remaining 44 games.
#3 A’s starter Jack Perkins who struggled against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday pitching five innings allowing 12 hits and six earned runs
#4 Perkins said about his performance, I’m being tested,” Perkins said. “One day it’s the homer. Today, it was the singles. It’s just frustrating. I’m going to keep grinding and see where we go from here. … Right now, it’s tough to look at who I am out there.”
#5 Jeremiah on Tuesday night we saw A’s shortstop Jacob Wilson’s throw go wide at second that missed second baseman Donavon Walton that allowed the Rays runner Richie Palacios to advance to second the throw was ruled a fielders choice error at first by official scorer Mark Honbo but was reversed to just a fielders choice that kept Wilson’s errorless streak at 112 games.
