The Athletics and Pirates will face off for the first time since July 2016. Oakland won the first 10 matchups of the all-time interleague series but Pittsburgh has won each of the last four.

The A's were swept by the Red Sox earlier this week and have now lost seven straight road games. The only other team to lose at least seven straight road games this year is Cincinnati (also seven straight).

The Pirates won two games against the Rangers this week and have won all four of their interleague games this season. They are 17-5 in interleague matchups since 2018, best record in MLB.

Khris Davis was the first MLB player to reach 10 home runs this season; he did so in his 17th game on April 12. Since April 13, Davis has zero home runs and the fifth-lowest slugging percentage in baseball at .236 (minimum 50 PA).

Josh Bell has recorded an extra-base hit in five of his last seven games with a double in each of his last three. Bell is one of five MLB players to lead his team outright in home runs (six), RBI (21) and walks (13) this season.

Since rejoining the Athletics last season, Brett Anderson has a 2.38 ERA in Oakland but a 5.86 ERA on the road. He has started two games in Pittsburgh in his career with a 1.38 ERA.

HP - Kulpa, 1B - Foster, 2B - Meals, 3B - Morales

For their weekend series finale Sunday against the visiting Oakland A's, the Pittsburgh Pirates can enjoy some normalcy in their rotation, but change is coming.
The Pirates featured outstanding starting pitching for the first month or so of the season, leading the National League in combined rotation ERA for a stretch.

Banged-up Pirates, reeling A's set for series finale

PITTSBURGH (AP)  Starling Marte can't pinpoint why. The Pirates center fielder just knows there's something about batting with the game on the line that brings out an extra sense of confidence.
Not even a monthlong slump to start this season is going to shake that.
