OAKLAND
Paxton Lynch Jersey , Calif. — One team already assured of a losing trip and another hoping to avoid a losing homestand meet up for the third straight
day looking for a series win when the Los Angeles Angels face the Oakland
Athletics on Sunday afternoon.
The clubs entered the series on losing streaks, and each has ended its slide with a win. The Angels prevailed 8-4 on Friday night before the A’s got even
with a 6-4 win on Saturday afternoon.
The loss was the fifth in eight outings on a nine-game trip for the Angels, who will take the field Sunday without 14 players currently on the disabled
list.
That number was 15 after Los Angeles lost four more guys on the eve of the series, but shortstop Andrelton Simmons returned from a sprained left ankle
Saturday to anchor an Angels defense that played error-free ball in the
loss.
Left-hander Andrew Heaney (3-5, 3.68 ERA) will try to send the Angels home for a six-game homestand on a winning note. If his recent pattern continues, he
should be due for a strong effort.
Heaney has allowed one or no runs four times in his last eight starts, with each followed by a lesser effort in which he has been roughed up for a total of
16 runs.
He’s coming off one of the bad ones, having been bombed for five runs and seven hits in three innings of a 5-3 loss on Monday at Seattle. Monday’s outing
occurred after he tossed a one-hitter June 5 against the Kansas City Royals.
Heaney has pitched well against Oakland in his career, going 2-1 with a 3.79 ERA in three starts.
He won his only previous start in Oakland, allowing three runs in seven innings in a 9-4 win in September 2015. He served up a home run to A’s catcher
Josh Phegley that day.
The A’s will counter with right-hander Daniel Mengden (6-6, 3.90), who has neither an encouraging recent trend nor a history of success against the
Angels.
Mengden has lasted just 8 2/3 innings in his last two starts, bombed for 12 runs and 13 hits by Texas and Houston in losses.
He has never beaten the Angels, having gone 0-2 with a 13.50 ERA in two starts.
The 25-year-old faced the Angels at home in the third game of the season in March

”In that first game back, the home team came back and won,” said Piazza
Keke Coutee Jersey , whose two-run homer for the Mets in the eighth inning on Sept. 21, 2001, lifted the team past Atlanta. ”That’s exactly the
lesson the city, the country and the world needed to see that night.”
Carol Gies attended that game with her three sons and celebrated the moment in the stands. Her firefighter husband, Lt. Ronnie Gies, died in the attacks on
the World Trade Center.
”When that ball went over the wall, I saw my children smile for the very first time since they lost their dad,” she said in an oral history
recording.
The exhibit covers various sports, including football, hockey, basketball, soccer, NASCAR, the New York City Marathon and the 2002 Winter Olympics. The
story is told in nine chapters

”Through the lens of sports, this exhibition celebrates the strength of the human spirit and our capacity to come together and support one another through
unimaginable grief,” 9/11 Memorial & Museum President Alice M. Greenwald
said. ”This story provides additional points of entry into the complex story of
9/11 to better understand our history and the impact it had on our world today,
to reflect on our own lived memories from that time and to feel inspired by
stories about the best of humanity.”
The exhibit was sponsored in part through the support of the Anheuser-Busch Foundation, MLB, the New York Mets and their chief operating officer, Jeff
Wilpon. It runs through the summer of 2019.
