Brewers vs Athletics: Milwaukee Seeks Victory in Final Oakland Showdown

Brewers vs Athletics: An Exciting Matchup Awaits

After a couple of rough losses in a row in St. Louis, the Milwaukee Brewers continue their road trip tonight in the Oakland Coliseum. This series marks their final matchup against the Athletics in Oakland (probably). The Brewers experienced an atypically poor performance from their bullpen, which surrendered a ninth-inning lead on Wednesday and couldn't maintain a 0-0 tie on Thursday, impacted by questionable umpiring.

Pitching Matchup: Civale vs Sears

Tonight, the Brewers look to bounce back with starter Aaron Civale, who is coming off two strong outings, tossing six shutout innings in his last game against Cleveland. The Athletics will counter with lefty J.P. Sears, who has been a bright spot in their rotation this season despite a 4.15 ERA (95 ERA+) in 141 innings.

Key Players to Watch

  • Blake Perkins returns to the lineup, batting second behind leadoff man Jackson Chourio.
  • Gary Sánchez takes on the designated hitter role tonight.
  • Brent Rooker leads the Athletics with a 163 OPS+ and was notably snubbed for the All-Star team.

Let’s enjoy some West Coast baseball! The first pitch is scheduled for 8:40 p.m. central time on Bally Sports Wisconsin and the Brewers Radio Network.
