Show Notes
The Oakland Athletics start their 126th season with a challenging 3-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, marking their second year in West Sacramentos Sutter Health Park. Shea Langeliers hits two homers, but Toronto wins on a walk-off single. The team faces a walk-off single in their second game on March 28th. The As, now playing in minor-league digs, aim for a shiny new ballpark in Las Vegas. Fans had mixed feelings last season, with the As finishing 76-86 despite cheap tickets. This season, hope rises from a young, hard-hitting core like Nick Kurtz, Brent Rooker, and Jacob Wilson. Kurtz hit 36 homers as a rookie with a .290 average. Experts see pitching as the weak spot, but the offense could push them toward 80 wins and wild-card chatter. Expect bigger crowds this year as Sacramento embraces big-league ball nearby.
