Episode 27 of BLEAV in A’s covers a busy week of baseball news and the final stretch of the 2025 MLB season.

The crew reviews the A’s latest action at Fenway Park:

Game 1: A’s defeated the Red Sox 2–1 behind Jeffery Springs’ four solid innings and a strong relief appearance from Mitch Spence. Tyler Soderstrom delivered a pinch-hit RBI and Brett Harris went 2-for-4 with an RBI.

Game 2: Boston walked off in the 10th inning for a 5–4 win. Darrell Hernaiz drove in three runs and Lawrence Butler added an RBI, but the A’s left six men on base.

With the A’s record now at 72–81 and officially eliminated from postseason contention, Tyler, Luke, and Devin shift the focus to the league-wide playoff race. They analyze the standings across both leagues:

AL West: Astros lead with the Mariners just 0.5 games back and Rangers 5 games out.

AL East: Blue Jays on top, Yankees 4 games back, Red Sox 6 back.

AL Central: Tigers lead with Guardians 4.5 back.

NL divisions and both Wild Card races, including the Cubs, Padres, Mets, Diamondbacks, Reds, and Giants battling for the final spots.

Finally, the hosts debate whether the A’s young core, led by Nick Kurtz, Shea Langeliers, Luis Morales, and Jacob Wilson, can develop quickly enough to make a serious run at the playoffs next year. They preview the upcoming final nine games and wrap up the show with their weekly Favorite A’s Memory segment.

A’s Record: 72–81 | Eliminated from playoff contention | 9 games left
