Nine straight losses. That’s the brutal truth. But the story isn’t over—not even close. In today’s crossover episode with Locked On Phillies, we turn the page on the pain and focus on what’s ahead: a three-game showdown in Sacramento that will test this A’s squad’s heart, fight, and identity. Are they just a team in a slump, or is this the moment they rise off the mat and punch back? We dig into what went wrong, what still can go right, and why this weekend is bigger than the standings.

We also get the view from the other side as the Phillies roll into town riding momentum and swagger. What can the A’s learn from a team that’s built for October? What matchups should fans watch for? And most importantly—how can the A’s rediscover their edge? This episode is about reckoning, resilience, and reality. It’s time to find out what this team is really made of.
