The Oakland Athletics are on a hot streak, while the Pittsburgh Pirates hope to avoid losing four in a row and get swept in this series finale on Wednesday.
The Oakland Athletics look great as the calendar flips over to May and into this series finale against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday. The A’s have won four of their last five and have a chance to sweep the series and win four in a row. Oakland is still three games under .500, but only 3.5 games out of first place in the AL West. The Athletics won the series on Tuesday with a 5-2 win over Pittsburgh. JJ Bleday was the headline of the night, smacking two dingers for his first multi-home run game of his career. Connor Joe of the Pirates got Pittsburgh on the board first with a solo shot in the opening inning, but the Pirates could only score one other time in the fourth. Pittsburgh has now lost six of its last seven and is looking to avoid losing four games in a row.
