 The A's are slotted into the second Wild Card spot in the AL, a game and a half behind Cleveland and one game clear of Tampa Bay. Of those three AL Wild Card contenders, Oakland has the easiest remaining schedule with its upcoming opponents combining for a .480 win percentage.

 The A's swept the Yankees in three games in Oakland earlier this month, holding New York to four or fewer runs in each game. Since 2017, Oakland is 11-5 against New York, the best record by any AL team against the Yankees over that time.

 Gleyber Torres has hit an AL-high 13 home runs in August. It's the second-most home runs hit by a Yankee age 22 or younger in a month all-time (Joe DiMaggio, 15 in July 1937).

 The A's are 23-11 (.676) this season when facing a left-handed starting pitcher, the third-best record in the majors in such games, while the Yankees rank fourth in MLB with a 28-14 (.667) record.

 CC Sabathia has a 3.19 ERA in nine starts at home this season compared to a 6.75 ERA away from Yankee Stadium. Sabathia ranks fourth all-time in strikeouts in Yankees history with 1687, behind Andy Pettitte (2020), Whitey Ford (1957) and Ron Guidry (1778).

 Mark Canha has reached base safely in 21 of 23 games he's played this month, posting an overall slash line of .360/.441/.618 during August. Canha owns a .413 on-base percentage since the All-Star break, tied for fifth highest in the AL over that time (min. 150 PA).
